Fans buying the club?

£4k and you will still only have a 1 in 50000 say in what happens.

 

the squabbling on this forum, shows it would be madness ( picture sparta scene) with 50, 000 chiefs.

 

the club is a f-king shambles with 3 or 4 chiefs, or is it 5 or6....anyway.

 

The only way a fans consortium would work, is if we had a figure head, who would be given absolute trust to run the club, only one name comes to mind,...

BTW, If KK, could be persuaded to head a Fans consortium, intended to make him commander in chief, I would not hesitate to put 4k in.  ( seriously)

How does it work with barca ? Don't the fans own the club there ?

 

 

perhaps the idea of a fans consortium to buy the club, isnt so far fetched, surely Ashley isnt richer than a whole city added together?

Not really. They're members and vote on the president etc but that's it.

It appears our club is owned by a Bloke with little undestanding of what is wanted here, with stories flying round that he would consider selling up.

 

 

If a consortium was organised, in a correct manner. would it be able to sell shares at , say £100 a time, the money be-ing pledged initially, untill it was established that enough could be raised to buy the club.

 

how much, is he after?

 

could kk be persuaded to head the consortium.

 

would people like Alan shearer invest something back?

 

There are other sucessful people in the region also.

if we did a fans consortium then we wouldn't be able to back the club. its hard enough just raising the money to buy the club, how would we be able to finance 15million pound transfers as well? and since the club is losing money at the moment, how long till we here chants of "fans out" ringing around the stadium.

you have to raise enough, to buy the club plus around 100 million , to rebuild

once that million pounds is gone? if we were to buy the club, which i would be against, i cant see ashley selling for less than the 234 million he's invested so far. 2 weeks ago he reportedly rejected 350million.

 

lets say he drops his price to 250. you'll then need another 100million to take it to 350. and what happens when that runs out? the only solution would be to get the club making money again, because the fans couldn't invest 100million every year for new player, and that is exactly what ashley was trying to do. kind of ironic dont you think.

 

getting the club making money again could mean the sales of players like smith and maybe even owen who are on a lot of money but we're not in europe.

 

it wouldn't work.

If all the Fanzines and Fan Websites sat down together to create a Fans Consortium to raise funds for a Fans' Trust to takeover Newcastle United, I would gladly support such a scheme financially and with active involvement.

 

Such a scheme would get the support and backing of the City Council, local businesses and fans alike I feel if done properly.

 

It could be achieved.

 

NUFC fans are all mouth though.
