Interesting as in Ipswich fit perfectly into one of those categories. Bonding the club with the community is where Town are sorely lacking at the moment.

Poll: What happens next?

Good read although 'Give or take a couple of referee-rigging scandals, one of which saw them relegated for the first time in 2006, the Agnelli dynasty has enjoyed almost a century of success.' Referees can't be influenced by clubs, surely?

No referee has ever given a soft penalty at Old Trafford.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

Good piece. Does beg the question what do you want from a football club owner and how Evans rates on those points. For what it's worth, I'd rate him as follows (marks out of 5):

Resourcing - 2
Sustainable financing - 3
Commitment to youth/academy - 4
Managerial choices - 2
Loyalty to managers - 5
Interference in footballing policy - 4
Connection with fans - 1
Openness - 1

Anything other ways we should judge an owner?

i.e how the owner's reputation reflects on the club

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

Yes. I'd rate him a 2 there.

Also long term strategy for the club.

For which I'd rate him a 1.
