Of all the teams that complied with FFP, we finished top in the premier league last season.......I suppose we could have cheated like City but that would be a hollow victory and leave a bit of a bad taste. You are completely missing the point in terms of develop and build city are moving forward fast we have not even got to the start line and when we eventually do what have we got that will scare the opposition? Simply increasing the capacity on an old stadium with a small footprint. There are two things the team and the club they are different things get the club right and the team sorts itself over the long term. I could not care less FFP last year it's irrelevant it's the future that matters

Not sure how winning the league would leave a bad taste. As I understand it we have to win it without help in which case we should send warrior packing.

I got some nookie from my wife as soon as the game ended, i guess she felt the need to console me. that would not have happened if i went to the game. Well, maybe, I dunno...ya think Stan got some lovin' from his man city friend?
Either way, i am glad I watched from the comfort of my sofa. That post speaks volumes about you all this is just internet fun to you No, I'm gonna go off on a tangent and lose my head over something I have absolutely no control over. Oh wait, no I won't, I will watch from home on my telly and the comfort of my sofa and enjoy it with my wife and there is nothing you can do about it. You did however last night contribute towards increasing city's wealth instead of saving that money and giving it to LFC for a home game. Just sayin'......

So how do we generate the money City have to then be able to replicate what they're doing?

We dont have some veiled heroic oil arabs from distant lands swooping in to save the day unfortunately mate. Nor should we expect it. We're coming off the back of a good season and now we have to properly establish ourselves as a CL club. A few years of that nice CL and bt money with a few trophies under our belt and who knows, we might start having a bit more clout to throw around to compete with them.... and wouldnt it be so nice to say to those fast-becoming-entitled-tits over there that we built our success and never had to be handed anything. Correct. Don't think many genuine fans want to see us simply BUY the PL trophy. That'll be for the glory hunting prawn butty nibbling (with crusts removed) seekers. WTF's wrong with owld Jack with his stinking push bike converted burger bar outside the ground anyway?  I had a prawn salad last night so don't even go there.
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Forgive me as I jump around a little Stan.
Nothing has changed in the last few years from a fans perspective. Bar city and Chelsea just about every other fan wishes they had different richer owners who will spend like drunken sailors forever and a day.
Television revenues will continue to be the main driving force going forward as more and more Asian and developing nations become richer and more can afford sat/cable packages.
I am not necessarily buying your American model either with the day out theme. To suggest that our ageing fan base is due to stadium facilities is ridiculous. City are champions that's what has attracted youngsters.
We are strengthening on a commercial level like never before but if the point is just to further line the pockets of players to galactic levels what is the point?
There are also a lot of areas you sweep conveniently to one side such as the Red Sox destroying the RM and Barcelona spending madness in the American model that you sight and Henry owns and also that FFP will and is ineffective. That remains to be seen in the coming years.
Further, I would also like you to suggest in the Liverpool area where there is such a suitable site available to house such a gigantic project because Stanley Park ain't it by a long way.

Stan, if it wasn't for City getting the stadium for next to nothing the Arab owners would of went else where.
Maybe Liverpool will get the commonwealth games or Olympics and move into a brand new arena for next to nothing.

Or is it perhaps just an example of how cheaply you can be bought?
