Indian businessman Ahsan Ali Syed wants to buy Blackburn Rovers for £300m.
Then he would love to lure LA Galaxy's David Beckham to Ewood Park.
This is the ultimate owners fantasy.
To buy into a Premier League club, and then sign world superstars.
Why not? But Ahsan Ali Syed musn't let his enthusiasm get the better of him.
His job is not to sign players.
Or suggest potential recruits to Sam Allardyce.
That is Big Sam's area of expertise.
As owner of the football club, his role is to create a vision and strategy for the successful running of the football club.
And assign people to roles, who are best equipped to fill them.
If Sam Allardyce feels that David Beckham is a potential signing, then he will make that information known to the owner.
But for Ahsan Ali Syed to be talking of bringing David Beckham to Lancashire, is at best over-enthusiasm.
And at worst, a failure to understand the critical division of responsibilities, that create a structured organisation.
Sam Allardyce is too experienced a manager to take player recruitment instructions from an owner.
But his wisdom, allied with an owners boyish enthusiasm and strategic support, can make a successful partnership.
The critical alignment for the potential new owner, is that he is not taking over Blackburn Rovers for himself.
But to serve the people of Blackburn.
Without this alignment, personal ego holds sway, and potentially ill-advised decisions are made.
Many new football owners have made this mistake.
Their stepping stones in the sea of failure, should be a cautionary tale for all those who seek to invest their wealth in the people's game.
