      I mean… Tottenham are one of the more sustainable and less shady premier league clubs, and Joe Lewis is far from a moral and stand-up fellow.

      No private entity with the money to own a top flight club got there by being decent.

        Lewis is absolute scum, but most of the damage he does is outside football

              It’s the same like when people constantly complain that UEFA competitions are “greedy, only money, they only want big clubs” etc., but then we have Champions League games and 99,9% of the attention is for the big clubs lol. The small clubs only exist to be the background for them. But when asked in general, they hate that “greedy UEFA” thinks like that completely unlike the fans.

              Omfg, people who are the best in the world at doing something very popular are making money off it, this is so dystopian and I am such a victim that I am forced to suffer through this.

        The red bull multi ownership model is not good for the sport so the comment about business first and football second is a bit ironic

          I am not basing my comment exclusively on the Premiere League, every professional league and club is a business, just like Red Bull.

            funny to see english fans argue who the worst team is in their league

            Flair of a corporation that started this multi-ownership bullshit

                That’s not true. Their land and their old training ground was built near Paseo de la Castellana in 1963, but back then it was on outskirts of the city.

                That land was worth fuck ton after 30 years when city grew, this is what the build on it after:

                https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuatro_Torres_Business_Area

                They moved to unconnected unbuilt outskirts of Madrid once again, which are still half-empty to this day, called Valdebebas.

                Here’s HITC Sevens episode about it, when I learned it from:

                https://youtu.be/ao5gccLtRL8?si=3EfB8NVAbfrOsg3e&t=319

                Here’s article about it, title is:

                “EU Court rules Real Madrid got no state aid in land deal”

                https://www.euronews.com/2019/05/22/eu-court-rules-real-madrid-got-no-state-aid-in-land-deal

          Not good for the sport but very good for red bull and the clubs they own. That’s not ironic.
