I feel like I can disassociate them from what the club is about. I don't feel owners ever represent a club or that a club represents it's owner. Players are far closer to that. You go to the stands, you support the team and the players on the pitch.
Yes the owners have more impact in the hand scheme but they are just separate business side of things people. You can remove them/change them/eliminate the need for them and the game will still be played on the pitch and people will still watch the team. People come to watch the players and coaching staff. Nobody goes to watch the owner or because of the owner.
I feel like the owners don't change what the club is about while if the team actively started playing someone like Greenwood when it is public, then it would change it more. I just can't get on board with the idea that a club represents it's owner, as then it is the idea that football is only representing some rich ass who wants a plaything rather than about players who are very talented at a sport we all love to play and watch.
I can understand that view.
I just can't separate the owners from the club, they're one and the same for me. I walk around Old Trafford and I'm in awe looking at the history and thinking of the players that had been there. But then when I see the conditions of it, I can't help but think of how shit the Glazers are. Likewise if the Stadium was completely rebuilt, I would forever associate that building with Qatar. If we signed Mbappe, again it would always be a Qatar funded signing. I wish football was as easy as just following the players and staff, but the money involved in football these days and the people pushing it imo in the wrong direction makes that impossible for me. As someone said in the other thread, it would just make me feel hollow.
