[QUOTE="Jonno, post: 727938, member: 5"] The problem nowadays if you're a smaller club though is if you are doing well, bigger clubs come in for your best players, and it means you can't have the same level of consistency that bigger clubs can. The only way you can keep your best players is having more money, and even then it's not a certainty. Attracting better players to smaller club is difficult too. These are real problems for the smaller clubs and that's why it's incredibly difficult for them to compete. Aside from that Liverpool, Man U, Arsenal and Chelsea have all been performing very well for a very long time, and fans get sick of the same old, same old. It's natural. Man U were on top for ages, everyone hated them. Arsenal and Chelsea took over for a while and Man U suddenly weren't so bad. I don't know what it is but people don't like to see teams doing so well for long periods - they like to see a bit of change. I'm sure you've been in more than 6 Champions League's btw - I can't think of any seasons since 2000 you've not been in the mix, there was that season you were 5th but you still got in, could be wrong mind. Probably my point though, fans have a short memory, you might well have been only doing well for 7 years or so but that seems a long time in football, and it seems to me that it's been ages since anyone but the top 4 looked likely to win the League. So all hail Abu Dhabi United :D [/QUOTE]
