I don't feel belittled at all. Should I? Is it personal?
It is not really true to say that I don't like City.
In fact, your windfall disrupted the old top 4 and allowed Spurs in too (on occasions) and that was very helpful to us.
It is true, I did like that you were terrible but there was a loyal fanbase despite that. It is the same feeling I have for Pompey now. In particular, I remember watching us lose 2-0 to you in Jan 1986 (I looked it up). It remains the worst game of football I have ever seen but has a special place in my heart. Also my childhood friend was a City fan which was rare in the deep South. And finally my father had a rather odd and crashing unsuccessful business deal with Mike Summerbee and occasionally i would meet him and he would always mention City within the first minute.
Now it feels like there is a section of the fanbase who want to belittle the less fortunate. That is less appealing.
Do I care about you buying our players? No. I am long passed worrying about footballers. Maybe that is where we are different. I don't think it matters at all.
As for joining your sex club. It is not really my thing. I'd rather have a cup of tea.
