You can't see the difference between owning a small minority shareholding of a multi-national conglomerate worth over $50bn over which they be able to exert negligible influence, if any at all, and having full control of a football club - a relatively small enterprise in corporate terms but, more pertinently, is deeply entwined with a local community?
Fair enough.
Must just be me, then.
Of course I see the difference but as I asked yesterday on another thread what are you expecting them to do at Newcastle? Sack all female staff, ban alcohol, only serve halal pies and behead anyone who makes a mistake?
I don't see how this is any different from what happened at Man City or PSG and if you go back far enough Chelsea. How City and Chelsea have the brass tacks to complain about the take over is beyond me.
