Arbitrary time period taken.

Liverpool history before 1971:
8 major trophies since joining the league in 1894
Average 1 trophy every 9-10 years

City history before 1971:
8 major trophies since joining the league in 1893
Average 1 trophy every 9-10 years

Liverpool history after ‘financial doping’ from littlewoods in 47 years since 1971.
34 major trophies.
Average 1 trophy every 1-2 years

City history after ‘financial doping’ from littlewoods to Liverpool before sheikh mansoor takeover in 37 years:
1 major trophy
Average 1 trophy every 37 years

City history after ‘financial doping’ from sheikh mansoor in 10 years:
7 major trophies.
Average 1 trophy every 1-2 years and lowering?

Liverpool history after ‘financial doping’ from sheik mansoor of city in 10 years:
1 major trophy
Average 1 trophy every 10 years and rising?


There’s a certain symmetry to us both.... one could almost say ... history.

Edit: infact you could say that Liverpool are currently at their usual historical average level...now that the littlewoods ‘doping’ effect has dwindled into...err... history

Edit clarification:
Major trophy = top division winner, FA cup winner, league cup winner, European competition winner. Does NOT include charity shield which is not a major trophy, nor is club World Cup.

The financial doping thing does my tits in

In their pomp, their financially doped era of the mid to late 80s, they were spending absolute fortunes. In 87/88 - Barnes 900k, Beardsley 1.9m, Houghton 800k. In the same season we spent 100K total on Seagraves. Don't recall any concern about money being spent then.

The other thing that makes me hate them is Heysel - I was 9 when that happened. Remember watching it on the TV. Absolutely disgusting.
 
My point is that not everyone is the same. I am not bothered with oil money whatever and I do not think or have ever said Liverpool fans are blameless neither have I attacked the people of Manchester or the city. I do not mind banter over football but when it is personal, most Liverpool supporters do not think we are entitled to win the league, that would be stupid. Simply I believe all fan bases are the same it is just that some are bigger so they will have more nutters and more decent people, in Liverpool the support is all mixed brothers fathers cousins etc all supporting one or the other, our fan bases are basically the same and I think we have more foreign support, but just like city man utd spurs leeds etc we all have a small element we would like to get rid of. I will take all the football stick as that is what its about but the other stuff is pathetic as you must know it is bo****ks anyway.

Worst bunch of ****s I've ever encountered in 50 years of watching football.

You might not be one, I don't know, but I do know that Liverpool fans are the worst bunch of ****s I've ever had the misfortune of meeting & pretty much everything they say & do now, just backs that up.
