Crowd funded ownership poll

Quoted from Malta_Mariner_90

I was just wondering what would be considered sufficient interest?

To be honest I'm not sure!  That response isn't horrible at first glance, perhaps we need some context, maybe Rob could tell us the average number of respondents to a poll on the fishy??? Also knowing the number of active users may help.


So far with some assumptions about the less than and greater than numbers it looks like the average figure could be around £750 per person (that's assuming 3k on average for those who picked the greater than option).  At that rate we'd need 2000 people to reach the £1.4m figure suggested on the Fenty out thread. That seems a stretch.

I guess  it could become highly skewed if any of those who ticked the greater than option, wanted to put a substantially  bigger figure in, not sure if anyone who ticked that option would be happy to post whatever that might be on here though.

I think Fenty would take a lot less than 1.4 million.
1.4 million for a club that is worthless is crazy.
I think around £500000 would do it.
He should take the offer or the fans should boycott.

This is not my main account, I wish to remain anonymous when using this account. I have already been offered to buy out a member of the board, but I am not ready or able to do this yet. I will one day, hopefully not for a long time inherit some substantial assets, as will my brother. I have been an avid town fan all my life, and attend many matches both home and away. I would like to think that I know a thing or two about football, footballers and football clubs. What I also know about is business. Very soon I will have completed my training and be on a very lucrative 'pay ladder' at a global leading firm in London. I will not be disclosing my profession. My brother although younger consistently performs within the top exam scores in the country, he has the brains that perhaps I, in some areas lack, however I am more of a 'people person' so together we are a strong unit. When we have both settled in our jobs/lives in a number of year we have the full intention to purchase a substantial, if not the majority share in our beloved football club, we are lucky to have had the education, opportunity and means to be in a position where this is a realistic aim. Watch this space, stay strong, remain faithful! There is a bright future for this historic club, and it does not involve lingering in the lower reaches of LG 2. UTM!

All interesting stuff but Billy Big Bollox tends not to work with GTFC supporters

Quite. You’re either pro or anti and there’s no grey.

I'd be happy to setup a standing order for £50 a month to go into a trust fund etc.

So what you saying it's either black or white with town?
