What an owner should be?

For me, for some reason, there's a real dislike of a wealthy owner - no matter what background - taking over a club.
To me it just looks like they're using it as a 'plaything', maybe also to boost their ego too somehow.
A wealthy fan taking over? That'd be different!
It just makes me feel uneasy, no matter what the scale is - same with the Chelseas and Man Utd's of this world.
Is their interest or commitment genuine and long term? Only time will tell.

I am totally with you on wealthy owners, but have they not always been, relative to those coming through the turnstiles. Of course in this day and age they are no longer just wealthy, now most are superrich and I don't know if there is a description for the wealth of people such as they guy who is looking to buy Man Utd, where wealth runs into many billions. On the wealthy fan, I remember an interview once with Elton John where he was saying wealthy fan owners are the worst, because either they think with their heart and that is not always in the clubs best interests or they go to far in the other direction. But not belonging to any of the groups above I don't know, happy to give it a go though if someone can provide the wealth.
