One was doing not very good things to the club whereas the others are doing great things for the club and terrible things to other people.
If it isn't happening under your nose it is easy to look the other way.
I thought the 20 clubs WERE the Premier League. My assumption had been that they would need to vote this move through.
It all seems a bit shonky to me.
To be fair this really hasn't got much to do with the fans of Newcastle. They have no control over who owns the club. They only really have two choices, make the best of it or go and support Gateshead or someone.
The fit and proper person test isn't about a moral judgement of who owns teams, is...
Let's have another think about this superleague thing. I don't want to be associated with this crap anymore.
(Of course I will keep watching, but it could be so much better (for everyone) if we went in another direction.
Send them off to the superleague with the other ridiculous clubs. Bring some sensible rules to an English league that focus on competition and we'll run clubs for people who like football not soap opera.
There is a place for both but I would like to see them separated.
