    I don't know about these multi clubs but I think I read that two clubs with the same ownership can't enter the same competition.

    Bit of fan backlash as getafe signed greenwood on loan from United and their fans got fully behind him

    Understand that completely, morals are clearly not their thing.

    When Edwards was appointed ceo and lord of his own naval he was appointed to do just this.

    They will buy them and we will send players there.

    I have no problem with that. We keep loaning our players to Champ clubs and they barely get a look in, for whatever reason.

    I mean Sunderland didn't use Danns at all. Kade Gordan, another who didn't see much action.

    So if we can send our young players to Spain, get them guaranteed game time, all the better for us.

    To be fair Danns got injured almost immediately.

    correct and the current Crystal Palace case will clarify the position on minority shareholdings in at least 1 of the 2 clubs

    I personally don't think it should be legal for any entity to own more than a sliver of more than one club.

    Even if they don't compete in the same league, there's danger of coordinated transfer shenanigans. Imagine if City owners owned one club in every league.
