On the other hand, Liverpool dominated the English league for the best part of 20 years and yet throughout that period, Man Utd still managed to attract a whole pile of praise and attention, much of it IMHO as a Liverpool fan, entirely undeserved at that time. They had a big squad full of big names and a big budget, and what did they win in that time? Answer = not very much. But then, they are a very big club, with a very big image, and have been for a very long time. Man Utd are always going to be loved and loathed in equal measure for that reason, regardless of how well (or otherwise) they perform on the pitch.
