The Richest Team In The World ‘Pretending’ To Be Rubbish

After being knocked out of the League Cup in 2nd Round by Brighton (League One), Manchester City were today thrashed by Nottingham Forest (Championship) in the FA Cup 3rd Round at home.

Now, I can only assume this is all a big act. We know they’re going to finish in the top four at the end of this season, with Kaka, Messi and C Ronaldo all set to set for them in the next week or so, meaning these dreadful results, coupled with their time spend in the relegation zone this season, must be them trying to fool us. It’s all a clever decoy so that we don’t seem them coming. We’ll all be too bothered about Liverpool and Chelsea to notice The Richest Team In The World (TM) sneaking in to the top four, snapping up that Champions League place.

Or could it that they are actually just shit? After years of complaining and whinging about our success, claiming it was all bought, that even with money they can’t buy success?

Wayne Bridge, who hasn’t had much of a look in at Chelsea’s first team for the past four years, finalised his deal with City this morning, ahead of his new team’s 3-0 defeat. Granted, Chelsea didn’t shower themselves in glory today, drawing at home to Southend, but at least they’re still in the bloody competition!

I wonder how many other ‘superstars’ like Bridge that Hughes will be able sign, before of course he gets sacked at the end of the season, if not before. 15 managers in 20 years.

Oh City are a massive club.

    Hey Scott cut them some slack!They missed Robinho!How can you beat Forest without Robinho?The owners from Dubai can buy Kaka,C.Ronaldo,Buffon and Messi for all i care.They will never ever be bigger than United.Hell,right now they are not bigger than Wigan.So after Ince and Keane it looks like Sparky will bite the dust.Can’t say i feel sorry for him though.Not when i saw him pose with the City shirt with a big smile on his face.

    Just pissed myself when I turned on the results and heard City lost this game at home 3-0 !

    City’s going down with a billion in the bank, a billion in the bank, a billion in the bank !!!!!

  3. Mic says:

    Ohhh how I had a good laugh, 3-0 it’s not even a respectable score line, it was more deserved rather than jammy!! Anyone think we should sign Robinho when they go down?

    Also, £12 million for Bridge, where the hell did that come from? If he’s worth £12 million, what’s Cole, Evra worth? A stupid, stupid price to pay for a reserve full back.

  4. Kings says:

    Mic – Hughes was actually quoted as saying he would not pay ridiculous prices for players in the January window. I think he has mugged himself off by paying over the odds for a pub player. Come on Preston!

    Preston won’t win against the ‘dippers, unfortunately, but it doesn’t matter. The Richest Team In The World (TM) took a hiding today at home and 33 years has just been confirmed (technically when they went out of the CC it was confirmed, but still).

    But it won’t matter that they fielded their first team. Why? Because there was no Robinho, silly …

    Massive.

  13. King Eric says:

    “Superstars like Bridge” how much has he cost the daft cunts £12,000,000?
    top blog Scott, funny as fuck!

  14. RedNaz says:

    Guys this is all funny but we should actually want Hughes to do well this season. If he is sacked (which only a miracle will prevent now) then the likelyhood is that he will be replaced by a megamoney offer for Jose Mourinho. Now at the end of next season when SAF decides to call it a day, we would actually want Mourinho for us, which will be highly unlikely if Hughes is sacked before that.

    Just add santa to the list of people who city.
    He does wear red for a reason after all.

    Could it really happen??
    Could I ever be allowed so much relegation happiness in one season.

  16. Vianney says:

    I don’t Mark Hughes will have a job by the end of the start of the summer.

  17. scotty says:

    lol, 3-0 at home to forest???!!!!!, and 12mil for bridge!!!!, i kinda feel sorry for sparky, rather have the dippers and rent boys losing, still fucking funny though.

  18. wiuru... says:

    Rednaz i hope Maureen does replace Sparky it means we dont GET him as a replacement for SAF.

    ” Doubts over Abramovich’s liquidity have grown to the extent that Chelsea supporters have begun discussing the possibility of him selling a club who continue to require significant cash funding.”
