Yeah but Salzburg were once called SV Casino Salzburg in the 1970's for sponsorship reasons, so their fans must of been used to having the heart ripped out for sponsorship reasons.

The earlier changes of name weren't ideal, not sure if they could be considered to have "ripped the heart out", but I think Red Bull took the biscuit when they marched in and changed the strip from the traditional violet & white, changed the club badge to incorporate bulls and wings, prevented supporters from standing in their usual place and declaring that the club had "no history" prior to 2005 (and even trying to claim that the club was founded in 2005)!

They are constantly banging on about their history, would love to tell leeds fans to shut up and tell them their shitty 1 week old club has never achieved anything. Would be great, we'd have more trophies then them.
