No one has the best interests of the cub at heart more than the supporters, and guess what - some of them are quite smart. Of course we have many able supporters who'd be able to contribute to any fan ownership scheme. However, like any club we also have our fair share of zoomer a who should be allowed absolutely nowhere near the running of a multi million pound business. Fortunately they won't be as this scheme will go nowhere. Absolutely no chance of more than 100 or so supporters paying £10 a month.

Our current issues are more to do with poor decision making at a First Team Coach level (consecutive coaches) and a lack of available talent within our price range (in case anyone hasn't noticed, the rest of the league is also fucking dire.

[emoji23]As BfL already has 150 members I would think as usual you are talking shite. The consortium that tried to help a few weeks ago are onside so that money is there.Admit it you know nothing.PS have you emailed Craig yet ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 12 of our group who go to matches, 2 - inc myself - contribute to B4L already (who have circa 150 fans paying per month) & the rest wouldn’t as they said they would only pay monthly if it were to towards ownership. I’ve heard many similar stories from fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d quite like that tbh. I was more aiming at the fist and second Livi efforts of overspending cash to put a decent side on the park and then just about going down the tubes twice? Kind of thing that could happen if all you were interested in was a decent side on the park no matter who the owners were.

Hell, I pay more than that for stuff I don't even use. what's your and Marshmallow's number then? let's work through it. All for good work but let's be realistic. You already pay tens of pounds a month on the club probably. Some fans think that's enough. So what amount of the rest would pay more. A proportion but not an ownership proportion. Happy to be proved otherwise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interest isn't there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
