ENGLISH football will host a clash of Gulf ambition and deep pockets when Newcastle collide with Manchester City tonight.

- BY JEREMY CROSS

One which has scaled Everest, with City winning a Treble in 2023, versus rivals still attempting to reach the summit.

Success aside, on the face of it Newcastle and City appear to have much in common.

Both have a fanatical fan base, both have fierce ambitions and the means with which to achieve them. And both just happen to be under the ownership of people with the sort of wealth most people cannot comprehend.
