    I'm sure that one bloke working out of a top floor flat in London doesn't need £375,000 per year for "admin costs" independent of the club budget.

    tbh - this is the same as MK Dons/Franchise rubbish

    A get rich quick scheme for one bloke - sod the consequences...

    Well fair play to whoever it is. Wish I had have thought of something as innovative to help pay my mortgage.
    As Irishmen we dilute our sense of nation by depending on the English to bring us our balls

    Aye - Kudos to the chap clever enough who thought of this - thereby proving there's enough saps out there willing to part with their cash and probably end up killing a club off.

    The market over here if someone came up with "Pay €60 and own part of a English club that could get into the Premier**** next season" would be enormous - as we've seen there's enough idiots willing to follow the Queen's Teams.

    Keeps them away from us though

    True enough.....I always have a feeling of "admiration" for the cons who put adverts in newspapers asking people to send £10 to find out "How to become a millionaire".Certainly have no sympathy for fools who respond!
    Tact is for people who are not witty enough to be sarcastic

    Looks as if the experiment has worked well

    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
