I don’t disagree…you are just of the thinking that because I am Leeds fan I must be having a dig and must be jealous etc etc
I’m not. the issue is the quirk in the system which to me seems a little unfair on clubs who don’t already have squad sizes like Chelsea, City etc
But you’re ok with it so…
And so it begins…
In response to a Leeds post regarding Sunderland but ok
I'd obviously prefer it wasnt so and would love to see ' messi cutting the grass' but one thing it might do if managed well ( which we tend to do ) is prevent teams trying to spend on Europe outside what they might normally commit to domestically due to the increased euro revenue and be saddled with long high contracts if the revenue is a one off . Kind of keeps it pulled in & a bit sensible , might not be the aim but thats the outcome .I don’t disagree…you are just of the thinking that because I am Leeds fan I must be having a dig and must be jealous etc etc

Despite the size and what many Leeds fans claim, West Yorkshire just isn't a football area. You have cities like Wakefield with a bigger population than Sunderland that only have a non-league side in the equivalent of northern league div 2.
Look, one of your own pointed out (with data) a solid comparison between our two clubs based on pricing, discounted ticketing, match day revenues, ownership.
Don’t let the facts get in the good way of your prejudice eh? No - I think it was some thread from a Seagull..In response to a Leeds post regarding Sunderland but ok
As Clough said Revie cheated his way to the titles. Revie had offered Stokoe a bung for his team to lie down at one point in his career. Stokoe hated him.
Revie won 6 major trophies.
Klopp won 5 in less than half the time at Liverpool.
Talk about over egging the pudding.
Did they though? Well before my time but they won the league twice in 13 years under him.
You want some chips with that salt..
As reported earlier we do have chips on both shoulderYou want some chips with that salt..
And you still need a bowl of them for how much salt you have..Well

All competitions were a lot more fragmented back then with many different winners over that same period. Only 1 team got into what is now the CL and 4/5 others in the UEFA. Most clubs were on a relatively even financial footing until Liverpool started becoming the most economically active in the late 70/80’s
You need to go and re-read this thread or have someone read it and explain it to youAye because you’d be gutted if yous got Europa League ffs
Fair enough mate as I say, way before my time so I can’t comment with authority. You clearly had a brilliant side, however - robbed of the European Cup etc.
Brilliant…but underachieving
I’m more or less in the same boat (Wakefield), I was told at work yesterday that we didn’t deserve Europe because our points total for this season “wouldn’t usually be enough to get in”.
