The thing that really gets me though, is what are Man City giving back to the city of Manchester, other than dull anti-football? Honestly, build some affordable housing, create new jobs in the well known poor areas around Manchester. This is just greed and pride of the highest order.
Gifted a stadium, that was exploited by some corrupt far eastern business man, only to be sold on to oil rich Mansoor family who go beyond all means to break and bend rules.
Don't say that paying rent for the stadium justifies the way that Manchester City are exploiting everything there. The Mansoor family wouldn't be pumping this sort of money into Manchester if they could get this much coverage back at home.
