Not pouring their money into a club doesn’t mean they aren’t a fan or don’t care but at the end of the day they’re business men and will judge it with their heads as much as their hearts. Steve Parkin is a huge Leeds Utd fan, has a box at Elland Road and goes to most games when he can, worth over £100m but has resisted calls from fans over the years to bid for Leeds when they’ve been going through their various ownerships because he said owning a football club is a bad investment.

Did not say it would pay entirely for 2 more teams, but its a step toward that especially if we can get a deal from Sky to fund 2 more teams. Sadly some chairman if we do get an increase will want to keep the extra for them selves.
