From my link above about a straw man argument:

Quote:
The so-called typical "attacking a straw man" argument creates the illusion of having completely refuted or defeated an opponent's proposition by covertly replacing it with a different proposition (i.e., "stand up a straw man") and then to refute or defeat that false argument ("knock down a straw man") instead of the original proposition.

The straw man fallacy occurs in the following pattern of argument:

Person 1 asserts proposition X.
Person 2 argues against a false but superficially similar proposition Y, as if that were an argument against Person 1's position.
I didn't comment on "how a club should be" - you did that. I just gave my definition of what I consider "buying the league" means, a topic YOU brought up. Have I said teams shouldn't do it? No. Have I said clubs shouldn't spend money? No.
