The Abu Dhabi Group clearly have no understanding of tribal rivalry whatsoever.
A Ronaldo to City deal (which of course would never happen in a million years of Sunday's) would cause an inner-city civil war.
It's not never gonna happen!

They have a lot to learn.

Chelski and Citheh are the only clubs that can compete in that game, rules need to be made.

It bloody well disgusts me

You can't buy the premiership, just won't work.

MURDER JUNKIE · 09-02-2008, 12:02 PM

within the next two years it will if this keeps up, it makes me sick that players no longer honor their contracts. It also makes me sick that teams actually bid on that thug Barton, I wanted Nasri to cleat him right in his smug face

Watching the City fans at work today was a real eye opener.

"We're the richest club in the world now". "We can buy the best players in the world". We'll be winning trophies in no time...just wait and see". "Nothing can stop us".

What they don't realise is that their club has now become the very thing they've been claiming to despise all these years.

Still it was funny watching Abramovich getting outbidded.

Priceless.
What worries me the most though is the new money increasing transfer fees and players wages...even more.

I'd like to see a cap put on the amount you can spend on a team.

Maybe saying you can only have a maximum of £200 million of bought players in your whole squad with maybe bonuses for teams that bring players through their youth system.

And another thing...funny how Robinho is now the greatest player in the world and how he's the "new Pele". Not bad for a player who struggled to get regular football at Madrid.
Somebody remind me who the European Player of the Year is!
