    See I personally don't see that that really has the biggest impact. To say Southampton are a bigger global brand than Inter Milan, I really just don't understand the criteria. It seems like it's just a list of "clubs with access to the most £££"

    Hard to say mate, they make the money when they are young. I'm reading about a lot of ****ed up 40+ year old ex-players with this problem and that. Seems like they were incapable of managing finances and loving a woman through thick and thin. We had one here last year in York, Clive Carlisle, chucked himself in front of a truck at 6.30 in the morning, seemed to be the usual fanfare, pathetic as it was in sympathy for him but what about the poor ****ing truck driver and the impact it had on him? He was trying to commit suicide, done for drink driving again and money problems, well boo ****ing hoo, welcome to the real world you useless piece of ****. I'd have reversed over the **** personally but that's just me..<ok>

    I'd say it's the obvious factor what with the table being 'brand worth in dollars', look at palace, if the recent TV money wasn't a factor they simply wouldn't be there. Plus it mirrors the movement on Forbes where all Premier League clubs have made huge jumps in both listings

    Maybe I'm mis-interpreting what is meant by "brand".

    You shouldn't be arguing on a forum with a lass like you have. You should be shagging from dusk till dawn and only stopping for a beer and pizza..<ok>

    Ffs, shut the **** up and get in there, oh and don't forget the music.. :)

    Well the brand is the club isn't it? So if the club are suddenly bringing in an extra 70m a year than surely the brand is?

    Would it be alright if I give your her number and you ring her up and tell her that? <laugh> If only haha. That's a pipe dream when one half is in full time work and the other is in full time education :emoticon-0107-sweat
    I wouldn't personally say that a brands value is directly correlated to how much money the club brings in,for example even when Man U were out of the Champions League etc, their "brand" is still much more valuable than the vast majority of clubs.

    You;re right though, the link is clearly meaning brand in the way that you describe it <ok>

    It's not explained very well, but my explanation seem the only plausible one. I'm just laying my own logic to try and fathom it.

    The question is, is Brand a Brand, whether it be Jo Brand or Russell Brand or is this a brand new concept on the merits of brands?<confused><confused>

    Well I've never heard of a Jo Russell but you might be onto something here. Has anyone told David Attenbourgh yet? Might be worth a bit of film..<ok>

    I'm sure many of the lads on here, QWOP included, have plenty of pearls of wisdom gained from years of experience with the women. Me, I found one I didn't hate and plan to stick with her, that's about the extent of my relationship expe
