Fan ownership - a long-term solution

I don't want anyone to subsidise my spectator sport and would be willing to pay more than the £340 for a season ticket that i now stump up. How many others would though?

As a socialist, i love the idea of a fan owned and run club but to live within your means would entail a lot of streamlining to give yourself a fighting chance of a good player budget. A lot of stuff would have to be done by volunteers and one thing most haven't mentioned is the state of the ground. It's falling apart and is no longer fit for purpose. It would need serious amounts of expensive updating unless the fans are also going to get into the process of building a new stadium too. For me, there are just too many hurdles to overcome and that's before you find the right people to implement the idea and run it day to day.

Maybe there is a way somehow, but i haven't got the vision to see it myself. Where would you even start and who has the knowledge to see it through?

Dear me
Fan ownership would be the end of GTFC.
People bleat on about the Bennie loans etc but show me anybody who ever walked away without getting there money back !
We are not a big club and some fans need to remember that we have spent most of the last 50 years in the lower leagues of football yet they still think we should be up there with the bigger boys.
John Fenty (love him or hate him) ploughed money into this club to save it from collapse and that is why the club owes him money and why should he walk away with nothing ?
I wish we did have a sugar daddy that could plough millions into our great club without wanting anything back, but that’s just a pipe dream.
The club is not in a bad position but allow it to be taken over by people with no big business experience at your peril as it won’t be the conference we need to worry about heading for it will be winding up orders and the end of our small but great club.

Are you absolutely sure that among the 3,000 diehards and the many thousands more waiting to be enticed back to BP there is no-one with big
business experience?
