Football

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.

Dull anti-football - scored plenty more than Spurs (The Great Entertainers)
Our owners are giving plenty back to Manchester, there is a huge redevelopment all around our stadium, all financed by our owners. This is creating plenty of jobs and will offer execellent facilities for all.
Gifted a stadium - this was agreed in 1999 when we were in the 3rd tier of English football. And if we hadn't moved into it, it'd now be empty.

What pray do tax dodger Levy et al offer the residents of Haringey, other than moaning that they won't buy them a new stadium, or threatening to fuck off to the other side of London.
