Seems we might snatch jones off united after all...

We sell more shirts than Inter Milan, AC Milan, Arsenal, Chelsea and Bayern Munich. The only teams who sell more shirts than us are Man Utd, Barcelona and Madrid.

And even when we're behind Madrid in shirt sales we're ahead of them in terms of selling other adidas merchandise, Ian Ayre (our Commercial Director at the time, now CEO) said that Adidas had told them that we were their highest selling club.

And that's without winning anything, imagine if we won the Premier league.

 

So most of us are agreed then. Good

 

Is that so, please do show me where you get this made up figure from.

On a side note, reports suggest the Glazers may be considering floating part of the club on the HK stock market. £1.7billion to be precise.

 

It is United then Liverpool,However Liverpool are catching United up on a commercial front.When FSG get their stadium plans off the ground,Liverpool could and this is could overtake them.

 

David Beckham is a bigger name than Liverpool and that is a fact and even he can't generate any interest in football over there. You haven't a chance. Pele also didn't get anything going over there so you have shown yourself to be clueless.

Also for great icons look no further than a DJ battering, child running over, 16 year old girl pregnater Stevie G. The lad who tried to do a Torres before scouse 'ard men told him they'd kneecap him if he went. That's love for you.

 

Agreed. Chelsea barely even exist outside the UK compared to Liverpool.

A well known phrase across the world is 'Chelsea, is that your daughters name?'

In football terms they are as well known as a cure for aids.

 

Firstly Gerrard didn't pregnate anyone.
Secondly didn't Giggs force his sister in law to have an abortion.
As for Man United and their ''unholy trinity'' that includes a mother disowner whose own brother hates him(Charlton),a drunken liverwasting wifebeating jailbird(Best) and a turn-coat(Law).
Now don't get me started on Mickey Thomas and Roy Keane.

 

I dont agreed KPR.

Until Liverpool start winning things and United stop they will never catch United commerically IMO.

United commercial revenue has increased massively since the Glazers came in and continues to rise year on year.

 

KPR is deluded living in his own world.
Liverpool is the same as United what a joke

 

Oi be done with this ****e lol.

Both clubs have got there fair share of ****ish people but its what they do on the pitch that matters. The likes of Gerrard and Molby are no saints and Kenny Dalglish as shown in my post referring to the Roy Keane transfer is no calm head.

Its a sad day when people are interested in the personal lives of others, be they famous or not.

 

You're pushing it mate

 

It would appear it is so

Bang on. I couldnt give a monkeys as long as they deliver and don't try and shag me!

 

Commercialism and success do come hand in hand.
However Liverpool haven't won anything and aren't in the CL yet they signed the biggest kit deal in English football that kicks off next summer.
£75 million over 3 years.No other club can match it.Not even Real Madrid.United certainly cant.

I did not know it was possible to fit so much she-ite in one post.

 

25 users. Not bad! Any of you guests want to get involved?!

 

To be fair these are figures as of June 2010 almosta year old

 

Until our kit deal is renewed of course. Ours is pretty old isnt it? Not 100% sure but it goes back a few years.

 

Great thanks. Old news though so once again....

United latest figures. Taken from Andersred who is a little more reliable than the Guardian in all fairness even though he is very anti glazer.
