Oh yes. Our club's history of doing the wrong thing goes back a long, long time..

Eg sol Campbell spurs to arsenal on a free. Tevez man u to man City. Michael owen playing for man u as a Liverpool fan and legend.
What nominations would you give re cardiff? I'm actually struggling to think!
Not Cardiff but I always thought Dennis Law's back heel for Man City against Man Utd must have felt like hell for him (although he was with Man City before he joined Man U earlier in his career he was always synonymous with United) https://youtu.be/e8HQhV3ujyg?feature=shared

I said Bothroyd as a joke...

...but having read this, it's convincing me that perhaps he was a traitor :hehe:
I liked Bothroyd and consider him as having one of the best techniques of any City player I've seen. He could hit a ball maybe even sweeter than Whitts. I was really proud that we had a player in an England shirt, even though it probably says more about the state of them at the time, having to go to the Championship for a never particularly prolific striker.
