Yes but Coventry City isn’t her only project. Barnsley owner is top of the list but the group owns another 6 clubs I think

Too right. Course it doesn't.Using this we'd be the 13th richest in the prem ..doesn't work like that though
Speaking of which has there been any indication from Newcastles new owners are going to go on a Man City / Chelsea style spending spree? Just because they've got it doesn't necessarily mean they'll be chucking it at Newcastle.Yes but Coventry City isn’t her only project.

Well they want to buy Inter too so would be pretty amusing if after all this they just used Newcastle as a feeder club.Speaking of which has there been any indication from Newcastles new owners are going to go on a Man City / Chelsea style spending spree?

It has been approved by the Premier League
There is already talk of them buying Kane and Mbappe in January (I suppose all the big names will now be linked)
That isn't going to happen
You are probably right, they will wait until the summer.
Not sure they have to because under Ashley they made a profit and have been sold with a positive bank balance. Under FFP they can lose something ridiculous like £135m over 3 seasons so they can probably splash out a considerable amount in January and before next season. It won't be easy to attract top players without qualifying for European competition and it won't be easy to attract a top manager with the squad they have. Will probably have to be a gradual process upgrading players and managers as necessary.If they want to keep from overstepping the FFP rules, then it’s a very gradual process. Something their “fans” seem to be forgetting.

Concerns or jealousy?

Exactly this - what the 'big' clubs are afraid of is that somebody else is going to get their nose in the Champions League trough, and that one of them will miss out as a result. It's naff all about football, fair competition, and they are taking a stance akin to that of themselves not wanting to redirect any of the PL income to support the clubs in the leagues below. Money, and self interest. Nothing else. I'm glad it's happened if it upsets the 'cartel'
Frightening.....
So Norwich will want a competitive championship next year so will be waiving their parachute payments, if they are that bothered they should try for new owners themselves.
Forgetting the other clubs for a minute, we’ve now got a quasi state owned club in the league, and not a particularly benevolent one. Is that no cause for concern in its own right?
But there’s no point comparing it to real world private enterprise. If it was just real world business we’d have franchise teams moving all over the place like the US of Ait’s private enterprise so in the real world it happens

At least only one of them has been involved in organised murder

Football is supposed to be different. Not sure for how much longer
Football hasn’t been in the real world for a long time
Well I’m some ways it has - the company I worked for made profit about twice in 20 years and many suitors were prepared to pump billions in
None it is uniqueHow many other industries have an equivalent to the ‘football creditors’ rule?
Saudis out banners when they sign Jesse Lingard for 35 million insteadTheir fans are utterly deluded. Expecting signings of Haaland, Salah, Bellingham in January.
