Holy ****. I was just reading a bit on Man City's finances. Now, remember all the commercial blockers being put in place on Newcastle? Well Man City have a commercial agreement in place with - among other weird companies - 8XBet. This company has 44 followers on Twitter and one employee on LinkedIn.
