The thing is fans wouldnt wanna travel to see youngsters and second string players.Its is ok if its a home game but not away.
I am hoping for us to win this weekend as well as tottenham to win so we still miss out on europa.
Our revenue wouldnt hurt much,our fanbase is global.
And i m not taking the shit excuse that it was under roy our team played bad.
U are wearing the liverpool shirt and that alone should be the motivation to give your best.
On top of that they are being paid huge wages.So no excuses for the dire performances except players themselves.
Whether or not it's merely an excuse to you, all evidence points towards it being true. Yes, as a professional, you should give your level best no matter what but being human, it's conceivable to believe that players play better when they're happy. Jamie Carragher is a legend and plays his heart out for us, yet he couldn't even find a way into the England setup ahead of Ledley King, Matthew Upsona and Michael Dawson.
Why the team didn't perform under Roy isn't just attributed to state of mind. His tactics were piss poor. The team already lacked motivation during Rafa's last year and it continued under Hodgson. Only after Dalglish was appointed that it picked up. Players like anyone else, require motivation. Hell as employees, we're paid to perform at our peak in the office and yet we have off days. Like us, players aren't machines.
Our revenue wouldn't hurt? Some money is better than no money and like I said earlier, winning the Europa League will amount to half what we'll get if we finish where we are in the league now. That's a fair sum. This is excluding revenue from ticket sales and TV rights. We do have a huge global fanbase which is exactly why we should capitalise on it by playing as many games as possible on TV. What? Are we going to rely on merchandise sales alone?
Read an article and here are the three main revenue streams for any football club.

There are currently three main revenue streams through football; match-day income, commercial deals and broadcasting deals.
http://www.footballfancast.com/2011/04/foo...revenues-add-upDuring the group stages, prices for Europa tickets are what? Let's average it out at $25 pounds. Let's also only focus on home games and say we hit an average of about 80% capacity. This isn't taking into account that ticket prices grow as we progress into the group stage and so does turnout. Being conservative, that's 35,000 people mulitplied by $25 pounds which comes up to $875,000 pounds in revenue each game.
Here is an interesting discussion on .tv that you may have come across since you frequent the site.

1.Real Madrid - £359.1m
Match day revenue = £129.9m
Broadcasting revenue = £123.5m
Commercial revenue = £105.7m
2.Barcelona - £325.9m
Match day revenue = £80.1m
Broadcasting revenue = £145.8m
Commercial revenue = £100.0m
3.Man Utd - £278.5m
Match day revenue = £100.2m
Broadcasting revenue = £104.8m
Commercial revenue = £84.1m
4.Bayern Munich - £264.5m
Match day revenue = £54.6m
Broadcasting revenue = £68.3m
Commercial revenue = £141.6m
5.Arsenal - £224.4m
Match day revenue = £93.9m
Broadcasting revenue = £86.9m
Commercial revenue = £44.0m
6.Chelsea - £206.4m
Match day revenue = £67.2m

Commercial revenue = £56.3m
7.AC Milna - £193.1m
Match day revenue = £25.7m
Broadcasting revenue = £115.5m
Commercial revenue = £51.9m
8.Liverpool - £184.5m
Match day revenue = £42.9m
Broadcasting revenue = £79.5m
Commercial revenue = £62.1m
9.Inter Milan - £184.1m
Match day revenue = £31.6m
Broadcasting revenue = £112.9m
Commercial revenue = £39.6m
10.Juventus - £167.8m
Match day revenue = £13.8m
Broadcasting revenue = £108.5m
Commercial revenue = £45.5m
What this doesn’t show is the net profit figures. I do know Chelsea made a loss of £70ish million so I wouldn’t read too much into them being “richer” than us. John Henry must see this and realize how far Liverpool are behind Madrid in terms of match day revenues, nearly 3 times! But our fan base is the same if not bigger than theirs.
The other worrying point for me is our Broadcasting revenues, we received £79.5m which is made up of £48m from the premier league and £31.5m form European football, even though we were knocked out at the group stage we still received £31.5 for our European run which took us to the semi-finals of the Europa Cup. If we don’t qualify for Europe which is looking more likely every week we will lose out on this extra income which in the first season of the FFP rule is vital. And the other knock on effect of not qualifying for Europe is it will lower the commercial revenue as well.
Every club in the top 20 rich list played in Europe whether it be Champions League or Europa cup. Is it possible we could drop out the top 10? Let see what are books COULD look like next year.
Liverpool fc – 2011 - £142
Match day revenue = £44m (I think this will increase)
Broadcasting revenue = £48m (if we don’t qualify for Europe and finish 6th)
Commercial revenue = £50m (with not being in Europe these could also drop)
This would take us out of the top 10.

http://www.deloitte.com/view/en_GB/u...56f00aRCRD.htmI can't vefiry the source of the figures but as you can see from the replies, no on is contesting them. About 40% of our total broadcast revenue from last season came from the Europa League. Not substantial? Won't hurt much? I beg to differ.
While the Europa League may not be everyone's cup of tea, it makes good business sense to be in it, and judging from the numbers above, a lot of people still stay up to watch us play, me included.
