When Arsenal went the whole season unbeaten, that was fine.

When utd won so many titles in the first 15 years plus of the premier league, that was fine.

Chelsea outspending everyone and winning back to back titles, that was fine.

Only now is it a problem.

They've worked out they can generate more internet clicks from rival fans if they turn us in to the pantomime villains.

This would be late 80s and before he went to Arsenal. I wanted to see if l could play but never got round to having a trial. I didn't know him from Adam at that time but somebody said the bowler being knocked about was a footballer and the batsman was from a well to do Stockport family of hat makers. Was that anyone you recall. He was also a big blue. There was another another bloke who l was chatting to about City. He was called Alan and from Old Moat area like my neighbour.

I take it that this refers to their challenge for the title of............. most expensive squad to not make top four.

Pretty nailed on too. #dna@the utdway

He must have been referring to the scouser's 'catching teams offside' title.

Sorry mate - can't identify the batsman from that description. However, given Dixon's prowess as a bowler, it could have been just about anyone playing at that time!
 
Liverpool the most successful club in the history of the league cup…. According to that Chris bell end on Granada Reports ‘Sport’
 
On the radio earlier, they were discussing if this was Liverpool's greatest ever team and if so they have underachieved with only 1 PL & 1 CL to show for all this greatness. They then went on to say "if you compare them to the great United team of 90/00s and the great Liverpool team of the 70/80's, they have underachieved". Totally ignoring the team that have dominated for 10 yrs who have ensured that Liverpool's "greatest ever team" are playing for second place
