Of all the players to revel in one's death, you pick on the classiest most gentleman footballer that probably ever played in England.
Absolute tossers.
Never forget that Man City players and staff sang about Liverpool fans being "battered in the streets".

The song was written shortly after Liverpool fan Sean Cox suffered life-altering injuries after being attacked in Rome. When confronted with this fact, what was City's defence? They weren't singing about Sean Cox, but rather they were singing about Liverpool fans being attacked by masked hooligans in Madrid (!)

So not only is the club built on financial doping, they've got a loooong history of being utterly classless. This horrible chant about Sir Bobby is just the most recent episode.
I think you've misunderstood, they didn't intend offence and therefore it's not offensive
Yeah. People didn't hear the first line of their chant was "with all due respect" so it's not offensive.
Such is the consequences of lack of parenthood and proper education. The result is cunts like that.
as if these clowns know that. they only know shit from YT
the country’s greatest ever footballer(with a claim to greatest english athlete)who played a key role in winning england its only world cup. real classy.
I mean, they have no idea of what happened prior to 2010, so I can understand they have no idea who he is.
