UEFA multi club ownership, Sunderland, Monaco and Juan Sartori.

Yep. The 2 families that we have involved as owners of the club at the moment, are worth >£10bn between them, and are proper football people (owners of Monaco & ex-owners of Marseille). And because it’s private money it can be spent without as much scrutiny as some others. I love that KLD’s wife is at most games, that his mum was at the Chelsea game, and that Sartori’s wife was also at the Chelsea game. If even the owners are treating it as a family club, imagine what it must feel like for the players.

Sartori's whole family were at the home match against the Mags.

Bit of a radged comment this one.

He's a 36% co-owner of the club, clearly has a good relationship with KLD, and has overseen our rise from League 1 to European football.

He's quite clearly invested in the club.

I keep seeing comments like this and it baffles me. We currently have what appears to be the best ownership group in a generation and some on here want to get rid of a substantial part of it .
Maybe those who keep asking for Sartori to leave should fuck off themselves as they will never if they live a thousand years , put into the club the investment he has .

As said, it was sort of a side door. Man City winning both cups allowed us in. Only 6th gets Europe normally.

Previous season, Forest got in to Europa in 7th like us, Chelsea into Conference in 8th (like Brighton this season), so what is normal? England's high coefficient to get an extra Champions League place each season pushes the Europa qualification down a place and then the likelihood of one of the top 7 winning one or both of the domestic cup competitions. It's hardly a freaky set of circumstances

A quick look at the history books tells me 9th place got into Europe a year ago. A team called Newcastle United even finished 5th out of 20 and were allowed to play in the Champions League. In fact they have not been Champions of England for 99 ywaes. Rather odd don't you think ?
