A frightening view of football. No wonder we can’t compete. 21:46 - Oct 18 with 1920 viewsPlums




It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.
Poll: Which recent triallist should we have signed?

We could've competed in 1992. ME was 20 years too late.

Luke Shaw’s new contract today is worth the same as the entire wage bill of 1992.
Although if you go back another 26 years to 1966 the average top flight player was on 44 quid.

Good for him but I can’t help wondering when it’s going to disappear up its own backside. Surely this isn’t sustainable.

If the super rich remain involved in it then anything is sustainable really

There doesn't seem to be any sign of it stopping currently?

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

The super rich own these clubs because of the huge international broadcast revenues. Most Prem clubs made profits last year so the economic model works as long as people keep lapping up the product.

I know that was then, but it could be again..
