In this episode, we send sympathy to Palace supporters.
Jets owner Woody Johnson has agreed to buy 43 percent of English Premier League club Crystal Palace.
Johnsonโs interest in Crystal Palace was first reported last week.
The only good news for supporters of Crystal Palace is that Johnson is not buying a controlling stake. (That means he wonโt be running the team.)
It isnโt entirely clear what this means for the Jets. If Johnson is distracted enough by his new, shiny toy perhaps he will be less involved with the Jets on a day to day basis. That canโt possibly be a bad thing. It is worth noting that the last time Woody was occupied by a venture in England, his brother took on a bigger role. So we might just end up with a different flavor of the same Johnson family incompetence.
But we can certainly dream that this could mean less day to day involvement for Woody.
