I don't particularly like their new owners either tbh, Chelsea had spent bloody months trying to get Robinho and they snuck in the back door, clearly without putting a lot of thought into it, and took him - that might well be just business as far as a lot of people are concerned but it definitely pissed me off, big time. And yeh, that is hypocritical because we did exactly the same when Roman arrived but I do feel bitter about that one deal in particular.
The other thing that really annoys me - and I agree with Warnie on this - is them being called 'the new Chelsea' and the question 'if Chelsea can go from 10th to 1st why cant City?' When Roman bought Chelsea, we were already winning trophies and we'd qualified for the Champions League, so we were hardly sitting around 10th. City have won sod all for 32 years, and definitely dont finish around the top 4, so the leap for them will be a lot bigger than Chelsea's ever was.
I couldn't give a toss if they achieve it, I just don't appreciate the direct comparisons as if Chelsea were a club languishing around 10th in the table before they had Roman's money, because that was never the case.
