All teams have to start somewhere until they can build up capital from profit. It's common sense really. If you don't have money you can't buy decent players so you don't have a good team so no-one comes to watch you. It takes time to get the ball rolling. Blackburn are at that stage now. United and Liverpool are long established, profitable businesses so it's different for them. You must also remember that they have a greater populated catchment area to work with, a very important point indeed. I wonder where United would be now if it hadn't had the Edwards' family money in days gone by. And where would Liverpool be if they had not had the Moore's family money. Ah, how soon we forget when convenient to do so. I think Burnley have done extremely well. They have clawed themselves back from the brink of disaster and occupy a very respectable position in the league tables. It may take a number of years, but hopefully, Stanley will achieve this also. I'm sure if benefactors come along and offer a few million quid, neither Burnley nor Stanley will be turning them away. What do you think?
