Tbh this Newcastle takeover might just be the final push in removing my interest in football. When they will be top 4 next season or even win it it´s the end.
You mean you will stop watching games?
these mega rich owners coming into football has not been good for the game one bit. since the formation of the PL as a cash generating machine it seems to be all the game is about now. its becoming pay to win and its being actively encouraged, unless there's a hint of a break away then there's hell up! Football has never been played on such an uneven playing field. its getting worse with every new mega rich owner and nothing is being done about it because the people in charge are getting very very rich.
Are you sure? I think there has always been clubs dominating the league, in the eighties it was us, then United, then a bit of Arsenal.
It looks to me that with money other clubs caught up like Chelsea and City, maybe Newcastle soon. Yes, we are the ones who have lost in the process, but it was not that even in the past neither. Before Chelsea, United was dominating because they were the wealthiest club, now there are other wealthy clubs to match them. The difference is that money wis becoming the determinant factor. FFP was not really done to protect clubs from going into bankruptcy but to prevent new clubs emerging into the elite.
I think smaller clubs (probably not fans) are happy as well as they can sell their home grown players for higher fees. The biggest winners are the players ultimately, but then, they are the ones providing the entertainment
