I know the reason.
He supports Chel$hit and now he thinks that Newcastle will become another club which will believe in just buying players [Just like Chel$hit] as it will also be owned by a billionaire like Abramovich owns Chel$hit..........
So, competition for Chl$hit and thats why a thumbs down.........Welcome back.......

Polarization of money.If only a few clubs have all the money and silverware the smaller clubs will soon die.

Just see the example of Chelsea. The club is owned by a Russian billionaire named Roman Abramovich......
The club now has lots of $$$ and it just keeps on trading/buying *big* players and never scouts for talent......So, hasn't the game been killed?
If the clubs will have limited funds, they'll scout for talent and then mould/nurture it.........By this way, not only the club, even the country and the sport of football will also get a very good player.....

Another point is when these owners are bored with their respective clubs or have had enough publicity in foreign market they sell it with massive debts on the club which are eventually paid by the loyal fans.

I understand what your trying to say. In the same way like it goes for F1.

Oh oh cmon, how can you say they don't scout for talent? The league playing 11 might not feature a lot of young home grown guys but I am pretty sure that the reserves will have some. I think it was Arsenal or Chelsea that once played without a single English player and that became a huge talking point which apparently has led to some self realization.
Buying players doesn't mean that these guys have shut all their training and youth programs. They can't it's a community issue, doing so will rage an outcry that these clubs won't be able to handle. We saw that when Man U's ownership was changing hands.

That is the problem with it,young players never crack the all star first team full of mercenaries and their talent is wasted on the bench(ex. Wright Phillips,Sinclare)
Because of these owners the players are being overpriced and the fans have to shell out crazy money for their outrageous wages.
Chelsea and Manure have spent in excess of 200 million pounds on their squads,the days of Beckham,Giggs,Scholes and Neville have passed.

hold on ....
Much b4 Roman came into the picture there have been other clubs which bought players and pumped a lot of money thus poaching players from Ajax n West Ham etc. (clubs known to have some good youth system). i don't want to name any and create another uproar.
Roman mite only have taken it to the next level, and with back to back Premiership titles people thought the game is dead. But, for the good of the game its not.
Apart from Roman's money, Jose Mourinho's shrewd tactics and a bunch of players hungry for success contributed to the back to back titles!!
Roman/Mourinho entry into English Football did change the way football is played in England. Sir Alex himself admitted once after Chelsea won the title "I have always said the Premiership is a marathon, but Chelsea have made it a sprint from start to finish"
To keep up with the competition other clubs invested more money and the result was, Premiership got more exciting.
Roman for that matter loves the game and has invested in bringing up a good youth system which is yet to bear fruits.(Sir Alex did the same with United when he came to power in the early 80s and we see the result now)
Thumbs down for Ambani buying the club is because, i highly doubt he is a football fan. he has no track record of managing any sports related business. Though i know he wud hire a whole bunch of advisors, i still feel he is simply not the right person to run a soccer club.
wat say folks?
