Peter Lim's purchase of Valencia is a big slap on the faces of FAS key personnel. He could have supported local soccer by sponsoring a club or even FAS. He chose not to but invested 700million on a club thousand of miles away. Why? Makes FAS look bad.

during his uni years i think,he is a RI boy.
Peter's sideline could be involvement with Jorge Mendes in buying and selling of young stars with potential.
Fat load of fuck it does to malaysian players even though their countrymen had their fingers in 3 epl clubs to date
That's a long shot. More likely immediate, unobstructed access to depressed spanish properties under the guise of facilities development
Unsure if PL will replicate MU cafes (some years back). Mushroomed 1 in Boat Quay in heydays 2009, but languished later -now closed. Got 1 in coperation with thai partner in Bkk, still there in soi 11. Was there 3 years ago for makan, on a big match day. Service sucked then, waited 45mins for makan + even hot tea. Complained, and bedek by name dropping PL's:o. Visiting sinkie chabor manager wrote off the check. My crony then wished he had ordered more beers!:p
Aiyaaaaaa mai picha lobang lah! I know loser sgpools will make Valencia as favorites in their matches so bet on the underdogs!
Knn, Singapore and Malaysian billionaires know fark all about football let alone how European clubs work. Look at Vincent Tan and the Fernandez guy who buy Cardiff and QPR... all first year kenna relegated. Football is not in our DNA. We can't play football at the level and we can't even buy and manage proper football clubs. Vincent Tan thinks changing from blue to red attire will keep Cardiff up... this kind of mentality? People are talking about tactics, talent, strategy... we talk about superstition.
PL will get a rude awakening when Valencia kenna relegated after next season.

I would prefer to see 11 of them.................... so they can hit the end of the table faster... and see fans revolt.
ang mohs dunno how football clubs work either.....roman ambrovich sunk 2 billion usd into chealsea....nothing to do with tactics talent or strategy,football is like a gambling casino except the odds are even worse than the casino......
S-League club? FAS? With clowns such as this guy in charge of FAS, it would have been a slap on Peter Lim to splash the cash on local football.
Owning a football club is a very unique business. You can splash a lot of cash and yet achieve nothing e.g. QPR, Cardiff.
I can see a lot of these Asian owners are very kiasu, they expect miracle results within one season when it should have been a long term project.
First of all, you must hire a good football manager and be on good terms with him. Don't try to play politics with him.
Your scouting network must also be good. The Asian owners tend to overpay for not-so-good players, and buy plenty of them at one go without addressing the team's needs (QPR and treatment of Joey Barton). It's not like playing a FIFA video game where you simply swap existing players with ones that have higher stats. Some players are not bad; rather, they can't play well in a certain system. You'll have to decide to keep the player or the system.
Next, you have to develop your youths within your academy. The ones that are really good can break into the first team. The better ones but not good enough to break into the first team can be loaned or sold. Sometimes some players are late bloomers who may shine during their loan spell. Keep tabs on their development.
The financial side of the business: players' wage bill, stadium ticket receipts, sponsorship deals, tv broadcast revenue, merchandise sales etc. Try to avoid having long term contracts with players aged 30 and above. A player's performance (and market value) peaks then declines after his late 20s.
Last but not least, invest in good medical facilities and have a good medical team. I'm not naming any clubs here but some clubs have plenty of injuries, players who go in and out of injury rehab, and whose fitness are questionable after recovering from an injury.
