Get the dolls a bucket each and get them round the ground collecting.

Alternatively everyone use thier season ticket and spend 10/20 quid in the shop on something?

Either way its money to the club.

Sorry gents - this is double standards. Not so long ago you were advising Bulls fans not to go down this route. They were trying to save their club - just like you are doing.

... and up it pops.

This would likely be more successful. Get some stalls with the gear for sale outside the entrances and inside the ground.

This may help;

Thanks that's really helpful.

Where will the money go tho who to trust? I give my money over at the gate no record of it they may keep it. I go in with season ticket and then give a extra 20 quid to club who can I trust? This is where Mr carter comes in he needs some strategic money collection in place. Show is ideas and brains.

I've got to agree on this. Unless everyone pays over the odds to get in, then it's just money going into a black hole. Major investors are needed, and while this may make you feel good in the short term, when it disappears like the Bulls money did in the long term, you'll ask why.

You may have stumbled on something here.

Pay on the gate and tax man takes 20% in VAT

Anyone wishing to donate their gate fee should pay the club directly. Perhaps write out a cheque payable to WTW and drop it into the club shop.

I'll be doing the same

I shall be making a donation on Sunday by cheque, I agree to buy a ticket would be subject to VAT

I get what you're trying to achieve BUT if the club has a "black hole" in the accounts, then it will need to be plugged by entries throu the accounts - either as profit on sales or capital injections from i) additional shares being sold (not currently likely), ii) from directors/shareholders loaning funds to the club (possible, but clearly MC/CB wish to avoid this) or iii) from player sales (increasingly ominous).

The solution is clearly beyond what many of us can put together as individuals with relatively limited means.

The best I can think of is (and only for for those who can afford it) to pay for season tickets in full using a credit card. That way, if (and hopefully this is a very big "if"icon_wink.gif the club folds before the start of the season, the credit card provider would be able to refund you directly. They would then join the list of unsecured creditors.

This.

Write a cheque. Write donation on the back. Give it to me on Sunday or a staff member. Every little helps as the saying goes
