Mick has proved his own point. Hughes signed these two players and as Gary Cook stated at the press conference when we unveiled Bobby Manc, the targets the board set Hughes at the beginning of the season didn't look like being met and he was sacked.

So Mick, the only anomaly with City in your analogy is that we didn't go bust?

I hope you choke on your saveloy you ignorant twat.

Love this brilliant, well thought article by Mick Dennis

WE BLITHELY accept Manchester City’s vast wealth. It has become a familiar facet of our football, like that big scar on Alan Hansen’s bonce.



But two absentees from the Etihad epic with Tottenham reminded us how City’s riches have disfigured our game.

City paid £25million for Emmanuel Adebayor and are still paying the majority of his £170,000-a-week wages while he is on loan to title rivals Spurs.

And they paid close to £40m for Carlos Tevez and are doling out all of his salary while he plays a bit of golf and talks to any club daft enough to think of making him even richer.

It used to be the case that a manager who wagered a club’s money on one expensive player who flopped could expect to be sacked and the club could expect to go skint.

Now, at City, nobody bats an eyelid at the most profligate accumulation of unwanted players the English game has ever known.

The bolded part I love. Didn't Hughes sign both players?

its almost to ridiculous to comment on, other than to say, what an absolute knob.

To be fair to the writer, money is ruining football.

It doesn't matter what way you look at it, oil money won you the FA Cup and will win you the league.

Put the shoe on the other foot - remember when everyone was taking the mick out of Chelsea for winning titles just because they bought their way to it? This is exactly what Man City are doing now.

Yeah, it was much better when that Moore's family had it on an even keel.

But this isn't about Liverpool's money. Man City were a nothing club before oil money was injected into it.

Liverpool have the history and tradition, they are one of the biggest clubs in the world and didn't need oil money to establish this. We were winning European Cups when there wasn't a lot of money in football.

And it doesn't matter what argument you put out - every other football person in the world will see City's achievements because of the oil money. Exactly the same with Chelsea in the past.

Another thick fucking deluded scouser, the amounts of money weren't like now (see inflation dickhead), but you were buying all the best players around to ensure you won stuff, only Forest iirc won sthe league and european cup with a side costing fuck all until they bought Francis.

In fact lets look at your european winning sides, where did Souness, Dalgleish,keegan,Hansen, Lawrenson,the kennedys etc.. all come from, don't recall any of them coming from your youth teams

So are you saying that City would be challenging for honours now without oil money?
