Sheikh Mansour
One of the features carried on the new official site (not the smoothest) of launches incidentally) today was an interview with club owner, Sheikh Mansour. The main thread has been picked up in the press and a full transcript can be found at mcfc.co.uk.
The point that stood out for me was his talk of the long term project - a theme that has been constant since the new owners came on board:
We continue to be very clear in regard to our expectations and ambitions: We are competitors. We are here to win and to build a club that will be in a position to win trophies. That said, we know that will take time, and this is where a patient and pragmatic approach is essential. We know what we want and are very clear on our internal targets. What we have done in the last ten months sets the tone of the way we will do things very clearly.They have been very impressive in their approach so far, and they clearly see the value of long term strategy rather than throwing money around for the sake of a quick fix.
Thankfully, we appear to be in good hands.

In good hands? Long term strategy? What about that daft bid for Kaka which fell flat on its arse, and what about all the other bids and begging? And now you're pandering to Eto who is just using you to get a better deal from Barca.
Long term strategy my arse.

Rag... why don't you sod off to your own team's pages you sad, jealous little man.
Yes in good hands, debts cleared, fans and community a priority, good signings, new classy website and we're only 12 months into the project...
How long have the Glazers been there and have any high profile players left recently by any chance?
