Question related to rich club owners

Tue Jul 10, 2012 9:08 pm

Now that Nottm Forest have been taken over by multi-Billionaire Arabs and look set to spend sh*t loads of money, I've been wondering;

Am I the only one that wouldn't want my club to be bought by these super-rich guys and then be hated by most football fans?

I respect Man Utd and Arsenal for winning the League in the Prem era but not teams that have just splashed the cash in a small period of time like Chelsea and Man City.

I just think I'd rather rise through normal ownership like Sw***ea and not through billionaires like QPR and West Ham.

Anyone agree?

I'm just trying to put it in simple terms :P I'm only 16 too so I don't particularly like talking about before my birth. One thing I know is that Man City have spent more since the Arabs took over than Man Utd have spent in the Prem era.

I was thinking about mentioning that but I think some of the less ''hardcore'' fans will have sympathy for us with the colour change if we don't spend millions. However, being Welsh isn't much of a problem as basically everyone from England I know loves the Jack twats. Mind you, they wear white and so do England so I'm guessing half of the English can't tell the difference :D
