That wasn't the implication at all, not in a month of Sundays. You have repeatedly said on here that supporters on Merseyside are unable to give a balanced view on Manchester United and other elite clubs. My point is that your "mega £££" digs and suggestions that Premier League club fans who don't go to watch every game don't have as valid an opinion rather implies you don't have an objective view of the Premier League and its clubs either.

I worked at Anfield for more than three years (2008 - 2011) during seasons varying from superb to horrific and regularly attended (and paid for) games I wasn't working at. Nowadays cost plays a part, along with the fact I have better things to spend my money on. There are hundreds of thousands of football fans across the country who don't regularly attend games and many would tell you that being an "armchair Sky Sports" fan gives you a much, much better view of what is going on.

Well we will have to differ then.

Off to see Tranmere with a couple of mates who support them tomorrow. Having a great season but stumbled a bit in recent weeks. Hope they can put it right against Oldham
