They have a point, but there are few people throughout history who have done great good without having also done some crappy things at times.

Which is why the posters here who keep dreaming of a White Knight with impeccable funding sources to take over the Nix are... well, dreaming. I fully believe that to have the kind of ego that can handle losing $1m+ a year to own a pro football team, you have to have the kind of ego which - for example - thinks paying your bills on time is for the little people.

I think this is an outrageous statement that impunes the good name of multi-millionaires everywhere.
 
Sorry Daloras, but there are plenty of very rich people who don't conduct their business in the way Terry does.  If you limited this to property developers you may have a point but do you think Graeme Hart would get away with doing business like this?  No is the answer
 
Why are there not similar stories about other A-League owners if this was the case?
