The new investors in football are making things ridiculous. Even clubs like Arsenal (who I always classed as quite rich!) are suffering. You know things are bad when the majority of clubs can't even complete with West Ham. But hey, if they want to pay a lazy Aussie full back £70k a week then I'm not going to argue. God knows how much they're paying Bellamy (the biggest git in football).

I don't think it's going to turn out well. Leeds are a prime example of where mismanagement, er, leads. I think there will be a few more examples within the next 5 years. I mean, how passionate can a criminal from Thailand be about Man City? Mike Ashley, the new Newcastle owner, doesn't even support a club!

I know Arsenal fans might be bitter, but I'd rather be an Arsenal fan than a Chelsea/ Manure/ Wet Spam fan at the moment. At least the club is owned by people who care about it - I don't think you can ask for much more than that. I know I'd hate it if the Boro were taken over. Steve Gibson, the chairman, is one of us. So what if we can't compete with a bunch of mercenaries? I'd rather do it on our terms any day.
