A Super League loses the integrity of English football which is all about competition and clubs having the ability to rise to the top from the bottom of the pyramid. I decided to stay at Exeter City for 12 years because it was 100% owned by the supporters and I loved the model. I always thought when I was there that the perfect set-up would be some sort of hybrid of that, like the famous German 50+1 model. Itâs a real seatbelt for all the dozens of cock-ups that owners can put a club into. Being successful in football is often about making lots and lots of sensible decisions rather than trying to make one clever Hollywood decision to take a short-cut. At Exeter it was always about the community and the supporters. Thatâs what the American owners seem to have missed about the English game.
