Newcastle I think do have history though?

Well yeah but even so i don't want it, maybe i'm old fashioned but i don't like being bankrolled by someone who could pack up and leave at any moment leaving us in millions of debt.

Would depend on the owner and club though. If it's a top league club I think the owner would be committed. Malaga's project wasn't that successful, so the club would have to make sure the owner isn't going to disappear etc.

Chelsea/Man City are doing fine.

But they're only doing "fine" due of the lifeline that exists because of their respective owners.

Let's not forget Chelsea were on the verge of bankruptcy before Abramovich saved them and Man City were a yoyo club with no direction or stability.

I would look quite the hypocrite for calling a Chelsea and City nothing clubs.

And then we go and do the same, i don't believe we need a sugar daddy to be competitive.

Just an owner who has ambition and knows what he's doing by hiring managers who have a clue.

Spurs are what we should be, except we have a much bigger stadium.

The difference is Daniel Levy and Joe Lewis are ambitious people, Ashley only cares about staying in the league.
