City fans since they like talking about how they broke FFP.

Lets face reality, a club winning the lottery is as unsustainable as you can get.
Frankly, who cares?
 
where can you find them?

apparently in the uk we're the 2nd most watched side. or at least in 2015.

Manchester United matches attract almost 52 per cent of the Premier League’s entire global TV audience according to exclusive Sportingintelligence analysis of the latest industry data and separate internal United figures prepared by independent experts.

This highlights how important United are to the league, and the weight of any theoretical claim they might have to a greater share of the Premier League’s TV riches.

There is no suggestion United want a greater share of TV cash.

They have not floated the idea, unlike Liverpool’s Ian Ayre, who attracted massive criticism recently for doing do. He clarified that Liverpool wanted more money from collective sales, not to sell their own overseas TV rights.

Sources close to United’s owners insist they abide by collective rights selling and also by the principle that a league that broadly splits its income is a stronger league.

But the data and the analysis unequivocally shows United as the Premier League’s main draw.

As discussed elsewhere on this site today in an analysis of the SPORT+MARKT report, many of the live games on Sky in the UK – where by definition the League has its core audience – attract fewer than 1m viewers each. Many ‘minor’ games involving less fashionable teams will have barely any audience at all – if they’re even screened.

Separate data prepared for United by independent consultants puts United’s global cumulative TV audience for a season at 2.424bn people – or equivalent to 51.8 per cent of the Premier League total.

This equates to United matches each being watched by around 64m people on average – a significant increase on the ‘average’ Premier League game. Again this includes live coverage, replays, highlights and clips on magazine shows.

If all 20 clubs in the League were equally attractive to global audiences they could expect 10 per cent share of the total TV audience – because two teams play in every game so two sets of fans consume each game.

Several industry sources have told Sportingintelligence that United’s position as dominant attraction is clearly defined. ‘United are the No1 club by viewing by a very clear margin,’ says Kevin Alavy of Future Sports + Entertainment (FSE, an arm of leading international analysts Initiative) whose firm collates accurate, verifiable data from sources such as BARB and Nielsen.

‘Across many years it’s clear United have the biggest share of the Premier League TV audience,’ Alavy adds. ‘The SPORT+MARKT report and our own research no doubt use slightly different methodologies but their totals don’t surprise me. United having a large share of the global figure is entirely in line with what we know.’
 
Well i can say my team does not support human rights abusers.

But city fans find that an uncomfortable truth to deal with.

have we gone into the sun book of cliches?

Pep was always for freedom but he sold his soul to devils.

Against what Barca and Ajax stood for.

yes, yes we have.

keep em coming, having a good laugh at the bleeding heart here.

so basically this is just another united dick swinging we're bigger than you lalalala rubbish as per usual. excellent stuff.

So human rights abusers are a ok if it benefits a football club?

Sound logic that
i dont think that logic is at all sound, but that seems to be the one you've automatically jumped to.

i merely find all your presumptions about someone you don't know on the internet very amusing.

hahaha what does that even mean? hedge fund or something?

aig managed hedge funds owned by the glazers when they were taking over united and as shirt sponsors. along those lines i dont recall the specifics.
 
:seenoevil:

we got shitty? so you are allowed to take clueless, baseless, completely fabricated shots are the club we support and shouldn't respond? and when you get proven wrong you just pretend that you were right all along?

no wonder this forum is in the pits, honestly.

no, it's not
what have sheikh mansour or khaldoon ever done wrong?
fulham, southampton, west brom, villa, swansea all voted against ffp

more lies and bullshit.

who would've thought that the bitters would ever become those in red? more obsessed with us than their own club. sad in it's own highly amusing way.
 

well a lot of people have knowledge about it. some can do more than others about it.

if it comes out that either are directly involved in the problems that face the country, then sure. but until then, im not going to type furiously onto a forum going on and on and on about it. unlike some.
