It only showed you parts of what he said, as i think it was to promote Cardiffs new stadium being built.
So am not sure how it got onto the Premiership and the new foreign billionaire or trillionaire takeovers, but he was basically saying that they will be the death of the premiership as we know it. Now thats not the part that irked me, he is probably right,it is getting ridiculous and doesnt look great for the competition side of things.
He was saying that its going to be the same teams competing for the major trophies every season - err thats nothing new is it ?
Then he went on to say (this is the part that smacks of hypocrisy) that players that were once worth say 8 million - are now moving for 20 million because of these clubs.
Hmmm wonder what happened at Leeds under Mr Ridsdale ?
Its in Fowlers book that Leeds could of had him for ALOT cheaper and paid well over the odds to secure his services and it was known that they were doing that with loads of O'Learys signings under Mr Ridsdale. The only difference now is the owners actually have the finances (except ours
)Now i am not saying i like the current climate of these mega rich tycoons buying clubs as play things, BUT i am shocked and appalled that Ridsdale would come out with something condemning them for what he tried and failed at Leeds, its laughable
