Quote: Bullseye "I like the idea in theory but would be wary of how it would work for us in practice. The “fans” don’t and never have spoken with a unified voice on anything. VBFG’s point is well made. You’d need a rhinoceros thick skin to be a representative on the board. Not for me thanks.'"
Our local football team is fan owned,Chester, the trouble is the supporters never agree on anything,so nothing gets done, the minute any supporter director is seen with a glass of anything in his hand, it's whose paid for that,?the rumors fly around about supporter directors not paying to get in etc,as a model in theory it's great reality you stagnate because other clubs have far more money,they speculate to accumulate,it depends what you want, a middle of the table championship team, if that is what you want then it is achievable with a supporter led model,anything more ambitious sadly NO.
