here are Liverpool's crowds from 76-77
a few 50,000+ crowds in the title run in otherwise mostly 40-50,000 sellouts were rare and crowds were lower in the 80s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1976%E2%80%9377_Liverpool_F.C._season football wasn't as popular then as it is now it was in decline and bottomed out in the mid 80s before recovering |

They sold Keegan to Hamburg in 1977 to pay for Dalglish.
Top English footballers were on £500/week not £200,000/week as now. |

Liverpool is not a small city. Only Birmingham bigger. Obviously London is on a different level.
Derby & Forest were big enough clubs. As big as Man City or Chelsea in the day. |

If every team played like Arsenal today against them, don't sit back but get in their faces, the league would be a lot more interesting. Sitting back works well against Liverpool but not City. That's been the case for years but few teams play like that against City still.

The mighty Villa used to get 40,000 in the third division early seventies. 62,000 for a cup match against Utd, 54,000 for a friendly against Santos. No wonder the future King of England is a fan.

"Liverpool is not a small city. Only Birmingham bigger."
off the top of my head Leeds and Sheffield are both bigger are Liverpool even the most popular team in Liverpool? |

Liverpool were an upper mid tabel team no bigger than Leeds who achieved success through good caching and recruitment
they weren#t the financial superclub they are today |
