If you had the money, would you like to own a football club?

I just think it's an obscene waste of money. Maybe a team like Gillingham would be fine, but I'm fucked if I would like to sit there watching someone like Fernando Torres and know that you have just spent 50 million quid on something like that. Think of all the good you could do with that money, and you've just spunked it right up the wall and you're paying the bloke about half a million a month.

I was thinking the other day, if I had someone like Burnley and made it into the Premiership. I probably just keep most of the cash you get and just hope you stay up. If you don't you still have at least 30 million quid. I'd spend some of it obviously, but what is the point of getting all that money fro the league to to reinvest it all straight back into it?

All in all, I think I'd rather build a homeless shelter.
