Well our boys have acquired a club for minimum outlay, get to pay themselves for the privilege, and get to enjoy all the perks of rubbing shoulders with other chancers businessmen. You can even have a post match scrap for which the likes of Crispy would get a ban for and nothing happens...what's not to like?

Seriously pissed off that I didn't think of doing it myself now...

If we did ever make a profit in the future, who's pocket will it go in? The Club or Jeds mates?

A what? Here? At Swindon?  Forget it.

As a customer and as an owner, Football has to be the worst business for both parties...

As a customer brand loyalty is everything and there is an expectataion that the success of the brand should come at almost any cost as long as it doesn't damage the brand or result in it disappearing completely.

As an owner of the club you'd hope to make a profit but when you do your customers expect you to put it back into the business and when it doesn't make any money your customers expect you to put your own cash into the business and when you don't you become unpopular.

Can anyone tell me if there is any reason a sane person would buy a football club?

I understand why you used it but terminology like this when referring to a football club causes me to vomit vigorously.

Sadly, at the end of the day, that's what it boils down to
