Caesars, Saviours and Suckers
« on: December 24, 2016, 11:43:16 AM »
...is the title of a new book that covers assorted foreign club owners. There's a few chapters on the Lerner years, which conclude with the wise words, "A sobering lesson about what happens when too much power is put into the hands of one man rich enough to ignore a quarter of a billion pound investment because he doesn't want to play with it anymore."

And if you thought Randy was bad, read about Portsomouth, Blackburn and a few others to see what could have happened.
