    None of the clubs you refer to had their issues from being in the Premier League - which is the most popular football league in the world - so I have no idea why you have dragged them in to it. The FA don't have sufficient jurisdiction - it is the EFL who have the jurisdiction. The new system for the independent regulator provides for more protection for clubs from unsatisfactory owners.

    In the case of young players who interest Premier League clubs like Arsenal no Championship club is going to be able to match wages available from the Premier League club. The question will be whether the player - more likely his family - thinks it is in his long term interests to stay at the Championship club for the time being.

    Chelsea have just become world club champions so how can he look any higher ?

    Wharton has been included in the England squad for the forthcoming World Cup quaifiers.

    The problem is in football it's speed over the first 3 to 8 yards that is usually decisive.

    Interesting if he has pace because guys that tall usually don't.

    Hasn't it been said that he intends returning to Norway at the end of this season ?

    Hull were so poor that it is difficult to say how good we might have been - but you can only beat what is in front of you and at least the new signings look to be reasonably good which should calm the nerves of supporters

    That was Joni Mitchell first.

    To be fair, I think he has 10% of the franchise. They declined last season when I think people thought Brady's influence might see an improvement. Obviously it is early days in a sport where, unlike football here, you can have poor years without a penalty as there is no relegation.

    Yes; the proof of the pudding will be in the eating. Which is why it is so ridiculous to be falling at the feet of owners now when they haven't achieved anything other than a lot of noise in the media. Tom Brady was the GOAT in the NFL as a player; but as an owner he has still to cut it as the franchise that he bought into last year - the Las Vegas Raiders - had a terrible season.

    Looking at the BBC website on 2 March 2015 there's a new owner of a Championship club saying ; "We will do whatever is appropriate to invest in the club to get them to the Premier League" The club was Sheffield Wednesday; the new owner was Dejphon Chansiri. You would have fallen for him as well. What matters is achievement; not loudmouths making extravagant claims to suck in the gullible and the naive.

    As has already been pointed out you came out with this gloom and doom stuff this time last year ahead of a season when we finished 7th.

    Come on. In their first season those "proper owners" got Birmingham relegated to the third tier despite all the big talk when they came in to the club. Let's see them actually achieve something.
