Personally I wouldnt pay £30 to go and watch a match. Another point I would argue is how can they say the premier league is the best league in the world when the best player in the world messi is playing in spain?
I will say to you what stupid answer andyYou simply know nothing about football at all I'm afraid (my opinion)
Ok so you say "I would argue is how can they say the premier league is the best league in the world when the best player in the world messi is playing in spain?"
Think if you check you will find Messi is just one player so by the same argument if he went to play in Norway then they would have the best league
Wonder what Messi gets paid but clearly its ok as you love him
Googled it (can't have been to the Baggies game in 1978) but well done you won fair and square don't have a problem with that
Money has always been in the game,thats how it works not just in football but most sports.
It is a good idea to build a big stadium to bring in more revenue as United did eons ago,we get the biggest crowds(when were not that successful) and of course it still brings in more revenue-lets us buy better players.
You do realise by the way that Messi stays at Barcelona for the money as no one else can pay his wages-(you must despise him now)
I'm not falling out with you Andy but yes as a football fan I will brag about my team,and take it on the chin when we get beat as pissed off as I am,but you just come accross as a typical Man utd hater and it gets boring mate
