Profits stem from revenue. As a football club owner you can plough it back into the football club, or you can take the money. This news illustrates the relative benefits of re-investing revenue back into your business vs hoarding it in the bank, or creaming off the surplus.
You're right of course, ultimately what matters is success on the pitch. Our success stems from the takeover and we are now a self-sustaining football club run in exactly the same manner as Man Utd were under Gill and Ferguson where massive commercial and broadcasting revenue underwrite success on the pitch.
If there are questionable owners wrecking football clubs, I think we know who they are.
