So thank you Mr Mansour, you are a gentleman who has invested in all those who support Manchester City Football Club, and for that I am truly greatful.

Manchester City were the club which, at just the right moment, turned out to be the most attractive business proposition of its kind available to the sheik.
I/we were supporters of this club long before he came along and would have continued to have been so if he hadn't turned up with all the moolah.
We should in no way feel obliged to bow and scrape to him.
Thanks Mister Mansoor - but don't expect me to call you HRH eh?

Oh lighten up. Everyone's only having a bit of fun.
We've all supported City for years and dreamed of winning trophies. The reality is, it probably never would have happened without the Sheikh. Whether people would actually bow and scrape to him is another thing, but so what if he could have gone elsewhere. Why are you even thinking about that?
He chose us, end of. And I will be eternally grateful for that as he's allowed our glorious club to have a chance of the success it deserves. We are well on our way now to joining the European elite, a thought that couldn't even have been considered 3 years ago!
