Part = 1-99%

Does it matter who buys into the club? Say I win lotto on the weekend, is it the end of the world if I buy a minority share of the club? If investment into the club is not going to make any material difference to fans, why the uproar? The only clarification I want to know, if any investment changes how 'Nix operate and if that potentially negatively impacts local fans.

if you sell a share in the club to another club in Australia, what is the end game?  It's that club taking over our license.  There is no way that an Aussie club buying a share in the Phoenix is doing it for any other reason other than it's a back door into the A-League.

Yeah, I could see an australian team wanting to be next cab off the rank IF the 'Nix are gone in two seasons - this is one way (if that team is not a successful expansion side anyway) to be ahead of the pack. Though, that could possibly be facilitated without the need to buy into the club merely pay to host a game or two for the next couple of seasons and offer a training base in Sydney for the 'Nix.
