The money makes a huge difference.
    No one denies hes a good manager but he's had pretty much perfect conditions everywhere he's been.
    What makes a bigger difference is how well you spend that money. As I've said countless of times United are no paupers and how much have they spent and wasted since Fergie retired. They all sign bad players, the best managers make the least mistakes.

    Hahaa - good one. Seriously we should get a plane to fly that one over a major game they are covering.

    What has he said that was wrong they have spent millions net and they didnt do this when winning titles.

    He said what is true nobody likes the way these owners do things but how do you change it ?

    I mean we might want FSG out thats ome thing but getting someone with the money is different.

    They’re not pretending it’s about the esl at all. It’s about protesting shit owners who are there to coin off a sporting institution in a similar way to what the cowboys and to a less obvious extent fsg are doing to us. At least our owners have shown the ambition to improve the club. The glazers leveraged the club to buy it and have taken 2 billion pounds out of it over the years. The esl just gave them the push to do it. It seems to be sky that have gone with the narrative of the esl line. Souness wasn’t shy about encouraging protest against esl when the sky slice of the pie was threatened. Just a massive bunch of self serving hypocrites on there.

    Steveo, I didn't grow up with a Liverpool/Manc rivalry, I only took an incredible dislike to them due to the incredible advantages they were gifted over every other club, it was bent as fuck, I'm not saying he wouldn't have won trophies, would he have won as many, not a fucking chance, maybe half or 2 third of what he won at best, the worst game I ever saw ref wise, was Mike fucking Riley reffing their game against he invincibles at Old Toilet, Mike Fucking Riley who's now in charge of the refs association that has alarmingly become absolutely rife with Manc officials under his watch, go figure

    I do agree with that Eggy they are all self serving.

    Souness was kind of sticking up for the wealthy too but I do get the sense and agree with him they are mad as they arent top dogs.

    Their city rivals are likely to clean up again and they are getting restless now.

    As I said Glazers are twats like him at Arsenal but they are hard to shift this is what life has become at most big EPL clubs now.

    Just as I advise Noods not to listen to Talkshite - I would urge you to just let it go. Give Neville your love and forgiveness. Feel sorry for him, he really isn’t worth your time.

    Anyway - it’s 16:45 and we haven’t conceded yet - let’s congratulate FSG on being so fantastic on Feb 1st and bagging a much needed world class solution at CB ..

    It's not because he's a thick Manc twat

    It is because again, this entire saga is yet another example of adverse CBT

    How much money do SKy and BT who make far more money from the Premier League than all the clubs themselves combined give to grassroots football

    They make this money through holding fans to ransom and making them pay for packages that include other things they don't want, so they can have more money to invest in those other things, when they should be contractually obliged to offer much lower cost football only, even team specific packages.

    If as they tried to in the pandemic, if I had to pay £10 per game to watch televised games of my team over a normal season, I'd pay about £300 per season, though them making me pay for them to invest in other things, I pay £857 a season, not enough of my money goes to my club and as far as I'm aware, none of the billions these broadcasters make in profits goes to grassroots football

    Why should broadcasters be in any position to pretend to take any morale high ground
