Yes. I think they have changed it for next season, presumably because some of theSome of the financial guru's on here will correct if i am wrong, i believe we have averaged approx 90m a year over the last 5 years from the CL. A rigged system with seedings and coefficients designed to stop the non G16 from muscling in. unfortunately for them we have. Hoisted by their own petard
Bit more than £95m average before gate receipts. 5 year: this season £95m, last season £115m, £95m, £100m, £90mYes. I think they have changed it for next season, presumably because some of the
G 14 have been missing out. I did read an article a couple of years ago that said £100m in Euro prize money was worth £123m when taking into account of add ons, knock on effect etc. I think your estimate of average £90m is not far off, maybe a little high.
Of course, but we await the outrage.They all ready know that is and Chelsea will receive arojnd €50m just for entering it
You should ask him about their dominance in the late 70s when:A Liverpool fan I work with had absolutely no idea that we had an era of winning trophies in the late 60’s / early 70’s. He thought that the current era was the first time we have won things
And he wasn’t taking the piss as he’s not like that, he just genuinely didn’t know
You should ask him about their dominance in the late 70s when:
- 1972 where Derby won the league with 58 points and 2nd place Leeds, 3rd place Liverpool, and 4th place City all finished on 57 points. 1 point separating 1st to second. This was the season before Liverpool won their first 1970s league title
- Liverpool won the league in 1977 by a single point with City coming second.
If he knew about their wins and near misses from their glory era, then he should know the seasons we were involved.
You'd think with this period being held in such high esteem by Liverpool fans, that they'd know the tight races they had and who it involved.
But they honestly don't know their actual history, they don't care about their real history. They only know the fictional revisionist history that they regurgitate to eachother.
I'm not surprised though, as many other fans also believe this. And also believe that United and Liverpool always dominated the league and cups between them when the dominating teams per decade were:
1890s - Aston Villa
1900s - Newcastle, Sheffield Wednesday
1910s - Blackburn (but half decade cancelled due to wwi)
1920s - Huddersfield, Sheffield Wednesday, Liverpool, Bolton
1930s - Arsenal
1940s - Portsmouth, but only 4 seasons played due to WWII
1950s - Wolves, Manchester United
1960s - No real overall since last time we had 7 different league winners in a decade. And 8 different FA Cup winners. United won 2 leagues, European, and an FA Cup so they'd edge via Euro Cup. Liverpool 2 leagues and an FA Cup, Spurs 1 league, 3 FA Cups, 1 Cup Winners Cup. City 1 league, 1 FA Cup, 1 Cup Winners Cup
1970s - Liverpool
1980s - Liverpool
1990s - Manchester United
2000s - Manchester United, then Chelsea
2010s - Manchester City (with Chelsea having moments and Arsenal in FA Cups)
2020s (so far) - Manchester City
Bribing them over knowing about a match actually being fixed by the other 2 red shirts.And don't let them forget that Arsenal only got into the top flight in the first place by bribing officials. They really won't talk about that.
Well yes dear friend.Asking for a friend?
No we had the initial UEFA FFP failure the one we took “a pinch” for when we failed due to a late change, in what was allowed, paid a fine and squad reductionIs that the only thing in this an and all the previous investigations we’ve been fined for, non cooperation because we felt there were leaks? Was that the 2014 thing, didn’t we have to reduce our squad as well?
This is where they got their famous logo fromHe probably also doesn’t know that his team spent nearly a decade in the old Division 2 with a stadium that was falling apart before their Littlewoods cash ejection gave them their self made “history”
And there was the lesson, UEFA were not to be trusted (we did hire the person who was heavily involved in the creation of FFP regs to ensure we passed, so they moved the goal posts last second AFTER we submitted our account). Defeated them eventually but they're still hurting, the Cartel clubs.No we had the initial UEFA FFP failure the one we took “a pinch” for when we failed due to a late change, in what was allowed, paid a fine and squad reduction
Then there was the 2 year ban following the Der Spiegel leaks which was successfully appealed to CAS the only thing they partially withheld was the non-cooperation although they reduced the UEFA fine from €30 to €10 as they accepted our mitigation over the leaks
