FOOTBALL NIL : SICKNESS TWO

Football lost yesterday.

The beautiful game has grown into something very ugly.

Manchester City FC were bought four years ago by a multi billionaire from the UAE, who is also a member of the ruling family of Abu Dhabi. The UAE along with Saudi Arabia and Qatar are driving the bloodshed in the violent Sunni revolutions in Libya, Syria and soon Iran.

The transfer totals show that since the purchase in 2008, MCFC have spent nearly a half billion pounds net (purchases - sales), nearly ten times the net of MUFC in the same period. Along with other funny money we can safely say that City bought the title for £1 billion, in less than 4 years.

AND ALL FROM JUST ONE MAN!

WHOSE FAMILY ARE DRIVING SOME VERY BAD TROUBLE IN THE MIDDLE EAST!

MUFC, supposed to be one of the richest clubs in the world with a massive following abroad, get a lot of their income from marketing abroad, but their finances are not that solid now after the Glazers dumped the debt that they assumed to buy the club onto the club itself!

But I watched the MCFC v QPR game in a pub yesterday. Most present were City. When QPR scored their second goal to go 2-1 up several City 'fans' started to sing the sickest song in football, "Who's that dying on the runway? Who's that dying in the snow?...", in reference to the 1958 Munich crash in which the Busby Babes were virtually wiped out.

Final score
Football 0 : Sickness 2
