I told you to do some research, then maybe you'd know what you're talking about.

It's nothing to do with net spend, the figures accumulated in the "pounds per point" table include the cost of buying the club (approx £300m) and therefore only run from just over 12 months in Liverpool's case as they were bought just over 12 months ago. In Everton's case for example, the figures are calculated back to 2004 when Kenwright bought the majority shares in the club.

If it was based solely on player purchases they might have a point, but I doubt they even take wages etc into account.

As I said, it's the most pointless table/statistics ever.

Thanks for the lesson, but I only threw it up there after glancing over it in the paper? People were suggesting City were spending their money well so I put that.

What do the Chelsea fans make of the racism allegations made by Anton Ferdinand against John Terry?

A load of rubbish, JT can come across as a bit of a jackass to opposition fans but i think most will say the same that JT isnt racist.

I bet Ledley King will say he is.

At the moment there hasn't been any allegations from Ferdinand.

QPR are supposedly going to talk to Ferdinand about it tomorrow.

Ledley King never came out and said anything.

So if Ledley King not saying anything is enough to brand Terry racist, Suarez is banged to rights over Evra's allegation.

As if the FA would have allowed Ledley King to come out and portray John Terry, England captain extraordinaire, as racist. The reaction at the time was clear as day, just because he never pursued action afterwards doesn't mean Terry is innocent. Furthermore, the video out there right now about Terry seems pretty clear cut, it wouldn't surprise me if Ferdinand leaves it, but the video evidence is clearly there. Funnily enough, those same cameras that found evidence on Terry found nothing on Suarez.

Good weekend for my laptop to break.

city have looked the real deal so far this season. Will be interesting to see if they can keep it going. Think city probably played better at Spurs than they did yesterday. Looks like all Utds hopes are resting on Cleverley.

You're joking right?

That video proves nothing.

He could just as easily be saying ''blind kunt''.

Terry IMO is not racist and I don't think he'd shout something like that with some of his teamates near by.

Unless ferdinand makes ay allegations terry should be considered completly innocent.
