darra Posted September 2 Posted September 2 A record £3.087 billion was spent in the transfer window. The total this year is more than was spent by Bundesliga, La Liga, Ligue 1 and Serie A clubs combined.

Watching some of those live games over the weekend, they were boring and really low on quality!! Not worth the money in the slightest
Kanye West Posted September 3 Posted September 3 The correlation between spend increasing and entertainment value reducing is quite amusing. How many games on TV last season were genuinely entertaining, less than 5?
SiJ Posted September 3 Posted September 3 It's all rather laughable. One moment, you have Sky, BBC etc., bemoaning out current plight, the next they're celebrating Liverpool having spent over 400 million on several footballers. 3
Fairy Tail Owl Posted September 3 Posted September 3 Well lets be honest if we had a decent owner and were in the prem we wouldnt be moaning

And the TV companies are the ones that give them the most of the money in the first place!

Anthndav Posted September 3 Posted September 3 Our plight should be a huge warning to every Premier League club. How quickly fortunes can change and how deep the fall can be. I still remember the first four games of the 1996/97 season. 12 points from 4 games and top of the league. It turned out to be downhill from there in my view.

It must be because Sky keeps telling us it is. Liverpool paid £125 million for one player. That could have bought SWFC and had money left over to probably buy a lower league club.
