By a Liverpool fan on a forum I used to post on.
Lol!
It's not just about the money for me, there were rules put in place years ago to throttle the dick waving, and the majority of clubs abide by them. If they don't, they get fined or points deducted or banned, and they learn the lesson. You rein it in.
Well, not when you control everything in your own autocracy, you do what you want. That's what they want to do here. Its the pervasive child-like narcissism that the owners have instilled into every corner of the club. They cheat, then they point the finger at everyone else, its everyone else's fault, they try and discredit the rules and the authorities, blame other clubs, weaponise the fan base in order to attack those who seek to scrutinise, as they can't just lock them up like they do at home. Then they continue to cheat, and then call the lawyers and accountants to try to break the rules and cheat some more. Even when its so comically blatant, like fake companies, or the plethora of leaked emails, or unnecessary stadium expansions to inflate their dodgy sponsorship, they'll just lie and lie and foot stamp and make threats, and then cheat some more. Same again a few days ago, 115 charges - the top legal guy is an Arsenal fan, its all his fault. They are a hulking big Trumpian man-baby of a club because of their owners.
