I said that for effect! It wasnt me that separated us out in the first place.. We are all equal Apart from the inhabitants of a place called sunderland
Being serious for a minute, there is obviously a correlation between financial clout and success on the pitch ... Chelsea, Citeh, PSG the 2 Spanish giants prove the point ... The only thing that I find irritating is when fans of clubs that have enjoyed enormous success built on foundations of being able to buy the cream of the best talent, then start bleating when a new kid on the block starts doing exactly the same ...

I agree ! Ive been waiting 6 weeks for the premier league to pass a mythical oil rich arab as a fit and proper person. Its a joke!
To be fair most neutrals wanted City to win the league last season when it came down to a straight shoot out between them and Liddypool.
