Not unlike Henry, Anelka, Fabregas, Song, Clichy, Nasri, Van persie, Kolo Toure, Adebyor, Alexander Hleb & Flamini once they fled lol  Didn't flee to Liverpool at the peak of their careers like Suarez wanted to to Arsenal (or like Sanchez wanted to go to them over us) did they  Good point tho

Well as mentioned Suarez wanted to leave for Arsenal, and Sanchez wanted to go to them over us for something they have we dnt, so by your own words this would put them in a higher bracket. Hung by your own petard I think the phrase is

From what I can see FSG have increased our sposorship revenue ten fold Stan - the money has clearly been there for players also.. it's more the strategy and the type of players we've been targeting that have held us back. As for growing up with the great teams of years gone by Stan.. football has changed so much, both on and off the field, it's almost unrecognisable  We can't compete with the cities & chavs - Utd to an extent also... in all fairness only a handful of clubs in world football as a whole can. Excluding the rich kids, we are up there with the best of the rest.. Best of the rest, oh dear how the mighty have fallen! Best of the rest reminds me of that line: "when he was up he was up, and when he was down he was down, but when he was in the middle, he was neither up nor down". And here we are suspended in the middle, with little prospect of going up and every prospect of going down! However FSG won't mind too much as long as the loot keeps rolling in, what surprises me though, is the extent to which some fans are prepared to accept and even defend these policies. One question, how much do you think FSG has 'looted' as you've put it, so far? If you cannot answer it will mean you are bullshitting to me. Either you can't read, or you've deliberately misquoted me there, and if you have, that tells me which of us is the bullshitter. what I clearly said is "FSG won't mind too much as long as the loot keeps rolling in". Thats very different from saying they have looted the club. What they are doing is maximising income, while minimising outgoings on player fees and wages, by signing prospects, instead of competing for quality PL ready players. As they've stated, they're following what they call a 'moneyball' policy, which clearly means they expect this policy to reap financial rewards. For that plan to come to fruition, the loot needs to keep rolling in, and they're working on that. That's what I was referring to.

I have never heard them say it. As a matter of fact, i have only ever heard fans who have an issue against them say it.

Marko they are hardly going to say we are maximising income and minimising the outgoings are they ? Its basically saying they are scewing the club and the fans which of course they are. But that does not stop reasonably intelligent people making a judgement of them does it ?

Why would they not maximise income and reduce out goings? It makes good business sense doesn't it? Do you want them to spend more than they and the club has and do a Leeds?

No I dont I am an accountant remember ? But I do expect them to invest and within reason risk their capital that's what being in business is about. But they seem to be exploiting the brand while not developing the brand
