I imagine the main thing is the clubs licence, although surely there would be certain procedures he would have to go through to be able to change the clubs location/name etc - Not sure if it would be much easier than just applying for licence with a new club to play in league 1, especially with a number of clubs currently struggling financially or as a whole you would think there maybe openings in the next few years for a new club to be granted a licence to play in league 1. I know there was a Manchester team rejected last year and they seem to have better foundations in terms of fan base, player development at that level than West Wales, but I guess they did not fit some criteria in certain areas.

Thats a little rich to be honest.

You have been a member here for a month and your obsession with gutterfax is scary, which brings me to an observation...

How would you know so much bout gutterfax, seeing as you have only been here a month and the username gutterfax hasnt been around in a good while

Sorry if this has been said, but there's 6 pages and there's too much empty vessels making too much noise for me to read through.

But my question is: Why buy a British club just to relocate them to the US? I mean, is it just for their spot in the league? Because I don't think it'd be that hard to just set up a team in wherever you're wanting to set it up and then apply to join the league. Toronto have proved that.

If I was a rich fella and wanted to set up a team outside of the host country, then I would be looking at setting it up in my own back yard so to speak.

Bringing a team over in a Ikea style fashion will not get the local populous interested and involved.

Start local, involve local talent and areas of business, get the community involved. Start from scratch and work from there with involvement from the area.

Little acorns and all that.

Joff's been busy on southstander resurrecting 3 year-old threads started by a poster called Mario. Make of that what you will.
