I was fuming at the way Mark Hughes was dismissed by owners of Manchester City FC.
This is another case of Man. City's billionaire owners doing an 'Abramovich'. You know what I mean.
You do remember a certain Russian oil tycoon who fell in love with the game after watching Man.United against Real Madrid and decided to buy a certain London club.
All is well in the beginning, but as the years go by, reality hits in his face. Money does NOT buy lasting success. Not in football it doesn't.
You can buy some of the best players in the world, pay them with so much money that it oozes out of their ears, but that is NOT a guarantee the trophies will keep coming every season.
It takes hard work, years & years of work to get that magic of winning all the time. Even that is not full-proof.
Look at how long it took for Alex Ferguson to shape Manchester United into what they are today. It wasn't instant, it was years & years of dedication & hard work. Players come & go but the club has to sustain that winning mentality & momentum.
Our Russian owner of that London club has finally begun to understand that concept, but Man.City's new owners have not. Soon they'll learn, and it will be a bitter lesson for them.
Again, I am absolutely disgusted at the way Sparky was treated by his former employer. Roy Keane said the Sparky was better off without City.
Steve Bruce also expressed support for his former team mate.
You did a good job at City Sparky. I guess some people are just 'blind' & plain 'dumb' not to understand that.
