True, giventhe wage bill is in excess of £200 millon a year for LiverpoolPerhaps there is an an argument that if we have a similar fixture at an early stage in the future, we should arrange a game before it as preparation. Had some team-building event not been scheduled at the same time, the Heswall game could have done that job. The money we make from the Liverpool friendly is invaluable, but while accepting the limited weight which should be attributed to friendly results, a closer, tighter game could have done more for morale. Whether that was ever achievable, given the strength of our opponents is a moot point.
