More of a subscription service than ownership

If you choose not to pay in the second year, you lose your share.

You don't actually own a share, you rent it for a year basically.

Oh and possibly the worst idea in football since Pete Winkelman had a brainwave tbh

You don't actually 'own' any of the club for £35 do you?

I'm not certain though as I haven't done any research into it. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Yep, you sure do. You will own 1 equal share in the club. Held through a trust. </BLOCKQUOTE>

When i last read it you owned feck all. You spend £35 a season to buy a vote for that season. You dont pay your money and not only dont you get a vote but you walk away with nothing.

Everyone pools their money and gives it to the person who then buys a club with it and lets you vote on it for one season.

In fact i imagine nobody has even been given a contract. They have just all donated their money to this one man who then owns a football club. I think he says if it all goes tits up he will donate your money to charity.

Not only will this be bad for the club, who in the hell wants to manage a club but have no control over anything?

If its run as a supporters trust where everyone pooled their money, got an actual share of the club and then elected board members etc to run it properly and left the decisions to the manager then i would consider it a great thing. A supports trust each putting in a bit when they wanted to buy a player etc.

Fine. Jeez, what happend on these forums? I remember when we actually discussed issues and stuff to do with FM and football rather than jumping on people for making one mistake. It's seems part and parcel of the FM forums nowadays.

If the mod's want to close it, they can. Not really the end of the world.

Can never have enough threads on this shambles imo. Some people not even understanding what you actually get for your money.

trotamundos

yeah, you know you are in OTF don't you?

retired_kaipu

Yes and as soon as it was published on BBC News, the website crashed with the amount of people trying to jump on the bandwagon.
