Not every club that receives bushels of cash rises to the top, as you well know.
Some even get relegated.

For every Elon Musk there’s a Mikey Carroll. We had a nice time for a while though.
I agree with wage caps, transfer embargos all that kind of stuff, if a club is being mismanaged. I just dont agree with fines and points deductions, it does the exact opposite of helping clubs sort themselves out.
More clubs have gone into administration since they introduced these rules than they did before. So who is it helping?

I disagree, there has to be some kind of rule in place but that rule has to be fair. That's the difficult bit. You can't have clubs spending money they haven't got or just let the big clubs get investment from dodgy sources and just do what they want. I can see why you don't like the rule though but on the other hand you could go bust quite quickly with your current owner which would be nice. Milton Keynes could do with a derby.
If the "dodgy source" is the owner, and they are dodgy, how are they allowed to be an owner in the first place?
Thats whats ****ed up
And also, what constitutes dodgy?
Almost every person or consortium with another money to own a PL club has engaged in business dealings that one would consider "dodgy".
Generally speaking, you dont acquire that amount of money by doing things on the up and up.
The main issue is, is there a danger of going out of business? For Clearlake, Qatari and Sheikh Mansour? LOL, nah.
And again, I am not against sanctions against clubs, like wage caps, transfer embargos etc and lay offs to get their business in order.
Its mainly hefty fines and point deductions I disagree with, because it really does not help to deduct points from a club, for contravening stupid rules that shouldnt exist in the first place. When its a club thats in zero danger of going under anyway, its stupid, but when its a club that is hanging on for dear life and on the verge of administration, its downright cruel and sadistic.

whatever they do to us, Villa will be getting it twofold ... and they'll likely not be the only ones ... be ironic if Villa look like getting a CL spot until getting hit with a points deduction ..
Nice deflection Fosse, I'm amazed that you pulled it off for two pages without it being challenged.
How those debt shares going?
Yes Boehly is a billionaire, hence he has likely taken part in dealings that you and I would consider dodgy...thats my point.
But under that vague criteria, no one would be able to own a football club
Utd bout to enter the Hodgson stage

All true mate - Villa made huge losses in their latest published financial statements - substantially more than we did / will.
As to the debt shares - the recapitalisation eradicated the debt - the risk is all the shareholders (KingPower) instead of us owing them for a loan (which is repayable) they now have share capital - which is not - but would entitle them to dividends (were we to pay any) ...simples

The fact that fans know this sort of **** about their clubs is scary.
And just a tad gay.
