But I'd have to do it on my terms, make sure I could do it according to a long-range vision: that I'd have control right across the board ......If I do have the opportunity to run an A-League club, it would have to be from the grassroots level up to the top professionals, the way I learned it in England"
Alright then, that's exactly the point from the man himself. Cases closed anyone thinking he's coming back here to do a guest stint and get a token 10% stake in some shitty club like the Jets.

Also: when he was close to signing with NY, he went to the commissioner of the whole league to get the run down on how the clubs are run and whether the owners were legit. Only after he was satisfied did he sign to play. That's a bloke who looks a hell of a lot wider than his next pay check.

Bloke will be the smartest in that FFA room and sadly incumbents prob won't like that one bit and prevent it happening.
