Your still missing the point. As i said above Without the Money City and chavs would not have won these things its that simple. Chavs and City were not rich before their owners came and they did not have the money to win the league or CL its that simple.

Yes Chavs were lucky but with a shite team do you think they would have won that game. If City had the squad they had 5 years ago this season would they have won the league.


Yes UTD spent money to win the league i get that and you have too. They did it though money they earned not with money they got from some rich fool who don't give a shit about the club really.
Us and Utd still have rich owners which allow us (if we wanted) to spend much more relative to most clubs in the Premiership. You're acting as if us and Utd are run as workers cooperatives, while Chelsea and City are run by evil capitalist businessmen. The reality is that all our clubs are run by affluent businessmen, so we can't assume the moral high-ground.
