Put the question out there Hammy. We can establish how many people regularly use this forum. In the event there was a share issue for NTFC to become a fan owned club, how many would be prepared to invest and how much? Transpose that across the support base and you have an idea. Farvfrom an exact science with a lot of variables but you would get an indication of the stomach for this if nothing else. Stating the obvious, fan owned club means fans have to source the finances. If they don’t and someone else puts up the collateral then they will be the owners. This process has to start somewhere so either this forum, the trust or any other supporter representative body may as well take a snap shot of opinion and more importantly intent. If it’s 10 million or 10 quid let’s find out? If it’s nothing then fine you look at other options. My own view on this is that it’s put up or shut up time. I have stated previously that there are certain criteria that would need to be followed for me to be involved. However, leaving the conditional elements aside I would happily buy a number of shares up to £3,000 given the opportunity. As far as I am aware there are a few others who would. I don’t want to put the poll up and pre-empt or damage the process whilst the trust are working on a strategy or proposal. But FFS let’s stop arguing and find out what people are willing and/or able to do?
I don't think people are arguing as such, Just fed up with the constant lack of direction our club is suffering.
This can be gauged quite easily by the fact so few people bother turning up and watching.
I would prefer fans were offered multiple years season tickets at fixed price rates in which to finance ground improvements etc, with any future short fall being made up by encouraging new supporters and better corporate facilities etc.
