Wolfboy - yeah, clubs have to have a minimum 50% club member ownership + the deciding vote. The remainder can be owned by private investors - usually local big businesses (who invariably employ large numbers of fans).
Interesting fact and figures re Bayern's relative wealth - and German football's financial structure in general. Clubs have to submit a balance sheet pre-season in order to gain a licence to operate. It's almost as if common sense has been applied to whole system, and greed isn't the principle factor. It'll never catch on in England.
