Vincent Tan to give half his wealth to charity after he dies...

But you don't need an analogy to explain it, it was fairly simple.
I agree with Blue Genie. In 50 years if he's remembered for anything, it'll be for turning us red. Managers might be remembered for promotions or players, but not owners.

The reason I used that analogy was not as a tool to emphasise or clarify the point I was trying to make. At the time, like many others I was disappointed when the re-brand was announced I but I read the analogy somewhere and it just resonated with me. It helped me put things into perspective after the turmoil the club had gone through prior to VT's arrival, a time when the club's very existence was threatened.
