Football is entertainment and that's all. But should we allow local clubs to become  huge empires?


Owned by sheiks and Mormons ?
What's local about the owners?


Corruption is rife in the football world with 100s of officials being paid bungs


If the owners were local we could at least get them in to court.
All the money made would be going back into the local community's and not to the tax Havens islands scattered on the other side of the globe.

I don't think it could be stopped, free market
All that's necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing

Easy answer, vote with what you watch.
I don't think there are many amateur Sunday league football teams who are owned by foreigners and could do with all the support they can get.


All premiership clubs & fans jumped for joy when they got there foreign owners to start with. Football players are over paid anyway and a big part of the problem.
