Liverpool Thread - 2023/24

[Ribble73]

It wasn’t Chelsea, Newcastle or Manchester City that led football down the closed shop of the Premier League and the quest for more tv money. Liverpool, United, Spurs, Arsenal and Everton were the culprits back in 1992. 15 percent for them and 10 percent for the rest of the league on Tv money, only way a club could bridge that gap was by having an owner with big pockets.

Jack Walker at Blackburn, John Hall at Newcastle, Alan Sugar at Spurs, Steve Gibson at Middlesbrough. They all had a good go at trying to break the monopoly that United had on the league. Could you remember any outcry at the time when they were spending? Probably because it didn’t make a dent on certain teams in red’s monopoly on n the league. Now our owners have come along and deposed them, City are now everything that is wrong about football. We didn’t start the fire though in the words of Billy Joel.

100% -The biggest culprits of all are Sky who started the whole greed fest going soon to be followed by the Champions League etc -and the “Big Five” were clamouring for all this for years before it actually came to pass and us the Chavs and NUFC where nowhere in these conversations.

It’s fine them complaining about other club’s spending, in fact it’s quite admirable. They didn’t complain when Barcelona bought Coutinho for £142m though the hypocritical furloughing fuckers.

Exactly. Their lack of basic comprehension should astound me.
That move to Barca was dodgy as dodgy gets leave alone inflating transfer fees.

Jamie Redknapp looks like Eddie Hearn’s lobotomised older brother to me.

He’s advertising Sketchers for fuck sake, no shame but that’s how the dippers roll innit …!
