Back in the go-go days of August 2008, when Man City had just become the big-spending richest
club in the world and were still four years away from winning the Premier League title, the club
was desperate to buy big-name players who could make an immediate impact. They ended up spending a
British record £32.
By tomorrow evening, half of Manchester a phrase that in itself provokes so much debate that it
is worth pointing out that it is being used for the purposes of simplicity alone will be
celebrating a Premier League championship victory. Either Manchester City or Manchester United will
be crowned as the champions of England.

Edin Dzeko's ponderous play blunted the creativity of Sergio Agüero and David Silva, while Andy
Carroll needs more support Emerging from an unexpected post-Christmas hangover, Manchester City had
something to prove on Tuesday night.

As all football fans(except those of a pale blue Mancunian inclination) have looked in
incredulity at the sustained, profligate transfer policy of the Abu Dhabi Royal families current
toy(namely Manchester City) more and more of us are speculating on the impact, if any, of UEFA's
Financial Fair Play(FFP) rules on the modus operandi of Manchester City.
In May of 1983, three clubs were relegated from the First Division. Brighton & Hove Albion were
one, and the other two were Swansea City and Manchester City. Manchester City returned to the top
flight a couple of seasons later but, for Swansea City, the intervening three decades have brought
hardship and a couple of seasons during which even the league status of the club was thrown into
doubt.

A Council of Europe committee has came out and said that Man City's £400 million sponsorship
deal between itself and Etihad airline is an "improper transaction."
The Council of Europe cannot impose any rules however, it is separate from the European Union
and acts as a watchdog body, which means that they might not be able to do anything to stop the
deal.
A clearly angry Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has ruled out Carlos Tevez's move
to Italian giants AC Milan. Mubarak who did not mince his words during an interview with The
National in Abu Dhabi.
Mubarak is livid with the way Milan have conducted themselves the entire time and have
continually maintained that loaning him with the option of buying at the end of the season is not
an option.
Our Manchester United fan site, covered the story on Saturday from James Lawton in the
Independent on Saturday, that Manchester United were willing to listen to offers for Rooney. United
immediately denied the story.
Well in Sunday's Mirror, Simon Mullock is reporting that Manchester City are planning to make a
blockbuster £60m offer for the United star.
The 'UAE Stars' took on a side of Formula One drivers (Felipe Massa, Fernando Alonso, Walter
Zenga, etc) in an annual charity fixture in Abu Dhabi last night, with the Arab legends running out
5-4 winners thanks chiefly to a hat-trick from their big man up top Man City chairman Khaldoon Al
Mubarak.
The chairman of Uefa's Financial Control Panel, Jean-Luc Dehaene says that he wants more details
on Manchester City's 10-year deal, £400m sponsorship deal with Etihad Airways. Etihad will now
sponsor both the club's shirt and the stadium. The deal has drawn criticism that it is an attempt
to circumvent European football's strict new financial rules due to the close ties between Etihad
(which is owned by the Abu Dhabi government) and Man City (Aby Dhabi's ruler is City owner Sheikh
Mansour's half-brother).
Tiger Woods is still looking for his first official win in more than two years. However, he's
slowly but surely climbing the official world golf ranking. In the latest ranking, Tiger is 17th
overall. He's sandwiched by Phil Mickelson at 16 and Sergio Garcia at 18.
That Tiger Woods killer instinct from his prime? That seems to be lost forever. During the Abu
Dhabi HSBC Championship, Tiger collapsed during the final round to finish a disappointing third.
Robert Rock ended up winning, while Rory McIlroy finished second.
In the first three rounds, Woods got better and better posting a 70, 69 and a 66.

Wrestler Hulk Hogan was a surprise spectator for the AFC Champions League match between Al Jazira and Al Shabab. Hogan was in Abu Dhabi to see the game, with home side Al Jazira being held to a 1-1 draw by Saudi Arabian champions Al Shabab.
Arsenal went to the home of the champions a football club effectively owned by Abu Dhabi. We had 59% possession, used our third choice goalkeeper, played without our inspirational captain and got a draw. Not a bad result.
