You're just a bit OTT there, Rupe, don't you think?

Only a bit though.

How many people do you know who threaten law suits over stuff posted on an Internet forum?

And the Ronniequin post wasn't ?

Didn't say that. I was commenting on Rupe's post.

In fact, on another thread i've had a go at Ronnie for abusing other posters.

OK am interested in the fan owned club! So your estimate of about 1500£ each, based on how many fans? Considering we are probably down to what was it 250 fans, so in reality you might get say 100 people that might show an interest and be able to fork out that money! So running a club on 1500000£ a year is not viable even if you got 200 to sign up that's only 300k

Where's Gutterfax when you need him?

I'll try & track down his detailed costings later.

So let me get this right.
You think that anyone who chooses to pay between £100 and £200 a year to watch rugby at the Broncos is by default an "apologist" and can't be a fan".
Only people who are prepared to pay £1500 a year can be a "fan" (and assumedly £3000 for a couple, and more for a family).

Tell me, at what point did you decide that rugby should only be for the relatively wealthy?
And how much will you be prepared to pay at your new adopted club?

How many times do I have to explain my POV.

David Hughes is a serial failure so any monies paid to out to him endorses that failure.

Whereas a fan owned club is exactly that.

An investment in the club by the fans.

Are there examples where fan owned sports clubs have been successful ?

AFC Wimbledon and Green Bay Packers spring to mind.

Isn't Barcelona a fan owned club, technically speaking?
