We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!
So Rafa has gone to his Yank masters at Liverpool with bowl in hand Oliver-style asking for more dosh to spend in the January transfer window, only to be flatly rejected.

He has the rest of the year. They don't have anyone lined up to take over and Liverpool are 5th with a game in hand in the league, still in the Carling today, and through to the next round of the CL.
That's the positive spin; the negative spin on their situation is that they're effectively out of the title run and will again have to battle for that fourth Champion's League slot. Moreover they limped into the Champion's League knock-out stage and will likely get a difficult draw in the next round, as we'll see on Friday.
Is that good enough for Liverpool fans starved for a championship? I doubt it.
Who's a likely replacement. Mourinho's not likely now that he's been proved a complete tart about the England job and he's the only big name available.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Lippi, and the also rans that the FA chose Capello over.
"Not good enough for England, but here you go Scousers. Stop stealing that car stereo and rejoice."
How likely is that? But Rafa should start packing because they will bring in a big name over the summer.
I read that the Americans are bitchin' about the cost of their investment now that the dollar's gone all Wiemar Republic on them. Tough.
In the same vein, exploitive foreign owners in the game, did you read about who was in Abramovic's entorage at the Emirates this past weekend? Yes, you guessed it. Aleshir Ushmanov. The brass of that guy showing up on the arm of the Chelsea gangster.
