A Liverpool fan said to me recently 'Form is temporary, class is timeless'.

Something about that comment coming from a Liverpool fan didn't sound quite right, so I looked up their record since they were founded.

Apart from a fairly tight envelope of success between 1977 and 1989 (12 years) Liverpool's success over the last 100+ years isn't much better than any other premiership team.

They spent most of the 1950s and early 1960s in the second division, and with no success in their domestic league for over 25 years, the idea that Liverpool are anything other than a run of the mill team doesn't really hold much water.
