    Yet another Premier League takeover is on the cards with Billionaire Mike Ashley buying 41.6% of Newcastle United Football Club, valuing the Geordies at ?133.1 million, not quite as much as Liverpools ?178 Million but still a vast sum of money. I wrote an essay about why there has been such an interest in the last few years from Billionaires and consortiums in purchasing notoriously bad businesses (Football Clubs) and have compiled a Top 7 reasons list to buy a Club.

    Top 7 Reasons to buy a Football Club :

    1. Free Ticket to Home Games and go where you like in the stadium
    2. Entrance to away team Boardrooms
    3. Get to meet the players
    4. Get to buy the players
    5. Bragging Rights
    6. Sit in on Premier League meetings with the high flying big wigs of football
    7. Great Pre-season Holidays with the team

    Write down any other reasons you can think of why someone would want to buy a club, and nothing silly please. [​IMG]

    Because they're interested in the sport of football and the money side of things.
