[QUOTE="Boy, post: 83123"] There's a big difference between a franchise and a business. The GP clubs will (I assume) all be plc's (public limited companies), having issued shares when they established themselves as professional outfits. Many will have majority shareholders, but will ultimately be responsible to ayone invested in the business. A franchise will be privately owned, with utter control belonging to one individual or family. Just because the premiership clubs have money doesn't mean that they have 'sold out.' [/QUOTE]
