    This.

    Liverpool were always the second club on Merseyside until the Moores bankrolled them in the 60’s, spending today’s equivalent of 50m-60m on transfers to get them
    promoted and competing straight at the top. Once you’ve had that bankroll it’s easier to maintain because then naturally bigger revenue follows.

    As chief said many times the last few pages..

    You had the same opportunity as all of us.

    You just spent unwisely.

    As did we until fsg turned up.

    They got us back to the big table with a rigid recruitment structure buying younger potential with a higher chance of selling them on for a profit of need be and finding the right managers. Which then lets you then spend more money as you'll find out when we buy isak for 150m this summer <laugh><whistle>

    What youre actually crying about is not being able to cheat the system all clubs signed up to and are supposed to abide by like man city have done to gain the riches they currently have in thier squad.

    If you win a competition one day and then spend the rest of your pussy arse life putting the losers in rougher waters then you're a fake champion ever after.

    I used to hate the Prem....I mean really hate it, even my mates wouldn't talk to me about it.

    Then it was like shock when I started watching it, now why was that....well Man City started to **** you all over, and I got to enjoying that. God works in mysterious ways...is that a saying....I don't know...but I did find it genuinely funny.

    I wish they would ban buying players and draw up regional lines clubs could scout players from.

    Then clubs have to actually do something impressive, look after local talent and you've got a competition.

    Thanks I have everything on apps, so it's a **** on. It's like that thing when you search your pockets and it's always the last one you look in.

    This is great idea.

    We'd never stop winning things with our endless conveyor belt of excellence pouring from the academy :emoticon-0165-muscl

    It's why Perez and his cronies want a big slice of the English money. Madrid and Barcelona have sucked the life out of Spanish football, and now what to dine out elsewhere.

    There is some truth in your second line, with your status at the time, and your fanbases, you and United would have carried on cleaning up, probably. But it still comes back to you got greedy. You wanted to create an exclusive club that bankrolled the money.
