The story of Girona's success starts 1,000 miles to the north, in Manchester.
In 2017, Girona were one of the first clubs to become part of the global Manchester City Football Group (CFG) network.
Since when has it been the Manchester City Football Group?! It’s literally CFG. They’ve added the Manchester, surely?
The absurd thing about this, yet again good investment being seen as detrimental to the game, whilst watching the 2 powerhouses who've spunked it up thinking they are Invincible!!
I haven't followed Girona but i am guessing they haven't "bought it" like we apparently did?
I read that a day or two ago, and actually thought it was quite complementary. They have admittedly got the CFG title bit wrong, but the article is saying how well the GFG involvement along with local expertise has worked. It doesn't suggest it's in anyway detrimental to the game as far as I can see.
Won away again today. Top of the Spanish league by 5 points having won 11 out of 13 games with one draw so far and top scorers as well. Undoubtedly they will be reeled in but getting a CL spot is well within reach.
Pretty sure City and Girona can't both be iin the CL. Unless percentage ownership changes
