empty trophy room so far...
Never mind. They're turning a profit. That's the important thing.
You scousers really are the gift that never stops giving
You stick to the designering stuff binners. Leave the copy to the clever lads. That's the umpteenth time you've used that line.
Look at Binners getting all twitchy! 
You know I'm right about Man U's spiralling debts, don't you? You're stuffed mate. Give it a couple of years, and you'll be calling yourselves Newton Heath again...
A Manchester United fayn, earlier:

Have Arsenal not won anything for 5 years? Weird. You would have thought there would have been something in the papers, or on the telly, or on forums etc?
Strange.
Anyways. The stability that actually being financially viable, having the the second longest serving manager in in recent times and consistently being in the top 3 of the league as well as progressing past the group stages of the Champions League is actually not too bad. I can live with it.
Fayns.
Y'know, fayns, Jamie. Inna London Tahyn Stylee...
Like 'vayn':
I can live with it.
It's no wonder the Emirates is like a graveyard.
Have Arsenal not won anything for 5 years?
Well it's closer to six actually, but no, they haven't. Champions League you say?
Oh look the cabinet's too small to put the fifth one in...
Here you go, so you don't feel left out:
It's no wonder the Emirates is like a graveyard.
....here is the thing though. Why the bullshit DD/Elfin? I simply posted that Arsenal could get by on a reduced budget to buy in players as Arsene Wenger is very frugal. How does that warrant an attack on a perceived lack of atmosphere or corporate boxes at Emirates?
You want to wind your neck in unless you want to constantly reinforce the boorish stereotype football fans have on STW.
...oh and obviously come across as an extraordinarily thin skinned individual who feels the first form of defensive against an imagined attack is to...well...try, and I use the word loosely...attack.
Anyways, I will leave you 2 to compare trophies or cocks or whatever. Guess the thread has run it's course.
Anyway back on topic the long haired woman beater is now the 8th most expensive payer ever. Newcastle have mugged the bindippers right off

Oooh get you. It's just a chat about football FFS. The footie haterz aren't going to change their mind...we're not all like binners 
I believe you started the thread...what...as a real discussion about whether Andy Carroll is worth 35 big ones? (That was a rhetorical question). If you're going to go all high and mighty about your club, at the expense of somebody else's, then expect the shortcomings of yours to be highlighted too.

LOLcarpetz. Yet another flounce this year. Is this a fashion I'm missing?
You might want to recognise a bit of banter when you see it chappie.
EDIT: Removed threatening language in my response "You want to wind your neck in..." No place for that really.

This. 'Ooh look at us we're so clever and frugal and everything'. Yeah, and you ain't winning owt.
Well, that's that, it seems. Torres to Chelsea, Carrol to Liverpool. Time will tell, as which was the best bit of business.
Right, let's start by beating Chelsea at the Bridge (another ground with bugger all atmosphere from the home fayns), then winning all our remaining games, pipping Man U to the title! 
Torres breaks a toenail and is out for the rest of the season. Fergie finally explodes and kicks a boot which bounces back off Rooney's head, and knocks Fergie out. Fergie retires and is put in a nursing home, wibbling about the BBC being out of order and other such nonsense. Emirates is found to have been built incredibly shoddily, is condemned and demolished. Arsenal make an audacious bid to take over the Olympic Stadium, but instead end up on a bit of waste ground round the back of White Hart Lane, next to a old peoples' home. The atmosphere at home games improves dramatically.
coming in late here but as a newcastle fan i feel like testing the swear filter
Now, now...don't be reinforcing the boorish nature of football fans here 
Ha ha, Torres on joining Chelsea "It is the dream for every top class footballer to play at a top class club and now I can do that"
Contrast with Carroll who didn't want to leave Newcastle
As Binners said earlier just a mid table club
ivixxiv
I seem to recognise this username. Haven't you been banned a fair few times? Why do you keep coming back?
Good luck to Torres. He'll be missed on Anfield, but the manner of his departure sours his image as a Liverpool great somewhat. As I said earlier, no player is irreplaceable. He makes way for others to make their mark at the club.
I'd like to see him back to his best, regardless of what club he plays for, for football's sake. The irony is of course, that he improved dramatically following the departure of Hodgson, and was starting to look like the player of two seasons ago. He's a moody player, and needs to feel 'right', in order to excel. I wonder if any dip in form at Chelsea will see him pushed out to the fringes like so many others at that machine. Schevchenko, anyone? Chelsea are in a slump themselves; if he can't perform the miracles his price tag might demand, will he be able to settle in and find his place there? At least at Liverpool he knew it would take time for the club to rebuild and mount a strong challenge; at Chelsea he will be expected to be on top form every single moment of every game he plays. Will he cope, if he ends up another astronomically expensive bench-warmer?
As for Carroll and concerns about his temperament; Liverpool have had fiery players in the past. Dalglish played with and then managed Souness, so will be perfectly placed to take Carroll under his wing I'd imagine. Bellamy was more disciplined at Liverpool than perhaps he was at any other club, and even El Hadji Diouf was quite restrained during his time at Anfield. And Carroll will mature, hopefully. He's not the worst when it comes to his off the field indiscretions...
Carroll and Suarez up front. Quite a good combo on paper, I'd say. The kind Liverpool haven't had for bloody ages. Let's hope it becomes a good one in reality.
As for Charlie Adam; I'm not a betting mayn, but I'd tip him to go to Old Trafford next season. Apparently Spuds almost got him, but I reckon Fergie's working his evil on that one.
Bring it on. Stoke next, then Chelsea....
Torres is shite anyway.
As for mid table club. Mid table position maybe, but let's be honest about this, only Liverpool and the scum have the sort of global following and brand recognition to rival real, AC et al. Having a rich benefactor does not make a 'big club', it's built up over decades. Once we have the stadium we need, Liverpool and united are the only true 'giants' of English football. With that in mind, in the medium to long term, we will be right back up there. Where would Chelsea be without abramovic...
They can't even sell their allocation for away games, how pathetic is that!!! Ha ha ha.
Im pretty gutted Torres has gone tbh, also pretty gutted we have spend £35M on Carrol, it's a mental gamble imo, suddenly makes Suarez look decent value though...
Still no left back or wide players despite £60M outlay is quite frustrating as well!
Torres is shite anyway.
Don't be so silly. When he's on top form, he's one of the best strikers in the World.
What I will say, is that he did seem a tad lightweight, speshly recently. Knocked off the ball a bit too easily, din't seem to have quite the confidence he needed to go past defenders. Too scared of picking up yet another injury? I've suspected this for some time now.
TBH Liverpool were carrying Torres too often, and relying on him too much. I think it's a shame that he din't stay, and forge a partnership with Suarez, but there you go. I think most Liverpool and newcastle fayns would have preferred to see their stars remain, but that's football. Nothing is permanent really.
C'mon, the comment was Tongue in cheek....
I am disappointed, but I won't miss him. I can't wait to see Carroll in full flow, big dunc scared the hell out of defenders and he never had players of the quality of Liverpools around him. Torres will not stay injury free, it's a matter of when not if.
Well, after all that, Liverpool have lost Torres, but gained Suarez and Carroll, all for a net spend of just £2m, if you include the Babel deal. This would have been the same if Torres had gone for a more realistc £30m, and Carrol for £15m. It's Chelsea who've really gone ott, ultimately. That's £71m+ they've just spent. 
They haven't sold anyone. Who's had the best deal?
I remember going to see Arsenal v Liverpool, league cup game about 20 years ago or more, cost a pound cos I looked under 16. And the Arsenal fayns were so quiet, all you could hear for most of the game was the few thousand or so travelling LFC fayns
"travelling LFC fans". In London.
That's hilarious. Bet they travelled really far.
Bellamy was more disciplined at Liverpool than perhaps he was at any other club, and even El Hadji Diouf was quite restrained during his time at Anfield.
Are you for real???
Good move for Carrol,he should feel right at home,even the potential victims women,will be the same colour of orange.
Fernando Torres on the BBC talking about his new club. If 'this is the target for every footballer', what is his opinion of Liverpool?
what is his opinion of Liverpool?
Ah bless, one's naïvity is refreshing.
