I was left under the media portrayed impression that MCFC sole sources of marketing revenue had all direct link with The Royal Emirate of Abu Dhabi...
oh well... the bonus is that I already subscribed AmazonPrime service and they are now granting City related contents: happy days!

Sky and BT can do one. :D

Where was Sky's 'unease' when Liverpool did a documentary series for TV while Bren Tan was in charge?

I didn't watch any of it but research tells me it was about their pre-season tour and was shown on Fox in the US. Also, the terms of the PL coverage may have changed since that time with the latest TV deal.

In separate news, The Sun reported the likelihood of a City documentary in glowing terms last month. :? :lol:

Probably a pre-cursor of the next deal, when Amazon and Facebook blow SKY and BT out the water.

It was on TV in the UK. I think it might have been ITV 4 (edit: Channel 5). I didn't watch it, but was aware of it, and it got mentioned on here a few times.

I'm still laughing at him stealing the RAF's Latin motto and trying to pass it off as his own pearl of wisdom.

Whoring......show some respect & understanding of the changes taking place in global sports broadcasting.

City at the forefront as usual but some too blinkered to see it.

Watch this space.

Got to agree with CPB on this one - Chinners , it's the way of the business world ffs...how the fuck do you think we are able to watch the world class players week in and week out ? by getting local businessmen to sponsor us ?

Come on..we all loved yesteryear when we were fuckign shit and a joke more often than not......now we have respect across the globe.

Im all for it.

Oh I get it Carl, and of course it's fantastic with the facilities, players etc. Just know what my response would be if it was Maureen and co trailblazing this for a mere £10mil

CPB - City have never been at the forefront 'as usual' and I saw you're post . . . . twice, so that blinkered bollox is nonsense as well.

Hooray for us!!

I think we have been at the forefront the last few years when it comes to global marketing, social media, building a franchise, etc.

I far from agree with a lot of it from my personal, old school fan perspective, but I do think the club is being very proactive and that we're anticipating the inevitable change to "tailored sports broadcasting", by getting in bed with the players of tomorrow: Netflix, Amazon and Facebook.

Why are you so emotional.agressive & personal in your posts. You may be a vet on here but that doesn't always make you right or fully informed.

City have been at the forefront of thinking & actions from the moment HHSM became our leader. His vision has shaken the established order to its core & he's only just started. He won't settle for second in anything !!

As for what the rags do,think or say.....so what. They're so far behind us it's irrelevant !!

As I said,show some respect to the club & fellow posters. We're Blues not rags.

please don't get me wrong, CPB, I agree with your point.
to be exact, I find Noolie's point of particular intelligence and vigilance.

but Chiners is never being emotional.agressive & personal, he's just being Chinners.

It's not a matter of seniority, it's just that he is the one who can call me a rag and expect I gonna take a 24hrs breath...
You don't wanna fire buckshots at your own panda. :ugeek:

I think you are confusing Chinners with people like me...Chinners is a gentleman 24/7 where as I'm the kind of cunt that gets emotional, personal and aggressive more often than not.

FYI This site is probably not what you are used to, as here we have a lot of freedom of speech - exactly how it should be dont you think ? That's what makes this site shit loads better than other mother Teresa sites and its been like this since 1999 until we morphed into this site , so I don't think you're going to change fuckall with your request on less aggression , emotions and personal fuckign digs )))
