Only a few minutes in but the theme so far is "rubbing peoples nose into it". Seems all rather precious. "We'll show them!" says the multi billionaire and multi millionaire owners with access to a multi club infrastructure.

Let's see if this stays a long-term project, or if the local interest will peak after a mediocre season (as a rule there has to be one sooner or later)
Think Foley is in it for the long term he is trying to build a Global sporting empire and is well on the way. The test will come when he is no longer around and if his heirs continue on with his aims.
The other test will come when they have the inevitable bad season  and if the hangers on stick around at the moment it seems to be the in thing.
