City are you ok? City are you ok? Are you ok City?
You've been bought by a war criminal.
As sung by Manchester United fans.
It's a common trait among small clubs trapped in a larger neighbour's shadow: the desperate, nothing's-too-trivial need to go one better. Manchester United get bought by a rapacious American capitalist who loads his debts on the club and hikes up prices for the fans; Manchester City find an owner who's wanted by Amnesty International.
But hey, who cares as long as you get half a new team and a few good results? Nobody. Until it all starts going wrong, that is.
Shame.
