If I thought I could trust the people running the club I might put more money in but the way the DTB act I would'nt trust them with my lunch money

I don't see what we get from selling to 50%+1. Unless someone is covering operating losses on an ongoing basis, the shares we're trying to sell are worth pennies, even lower than JG's valuations. So anyone buying them will demand a major say in how the club is run so that their investment isn't worthless in a year or two. In other words they will behave as if they were majority owners, so they might as well be.

Wrexham receive 18 million non repayable from the Welsh government. What are we doing wrong?

Agreed. People don’t deserve a fan owned club if they don’t pay for it. Poor old Doobs is putting in so much work and we can’t even get £20k from the owners. If I owned an expensive Ferrari but wouldnt put in the money for its upkeep I’d have to get rid of it

I’d put in a £1,000 donation to the club every season if it could be guaranteed that 2,000-3,000 others would do the same - unfortunately I’d guess that maybe a few hundred might do it, and that wouldn’t really help much… That’s why I’m in favour of selling up to the 50+1 model…

We had c30,000 people supporting us at Wembley. If those “owners” cant support a L1/2 club and dig deep then fan ownership is a deeply flawed model. If a club with our great story, great location and affluent fan base cant support fan owned I don’t think anyone can

While our governance is a mess, I don't think (of course I may be wrong) that, as a business, we are badly run, it's just that basically no club at our level is going to be profitable or sustainable without someone willing to support losses and that with fan ownership you don't have that person.

It can be more realistic if we get costs under control. Our wages have gone up from £4.1 million to £5.8 million in two years. That is an increase of 41%. What is that money being spent on? How much of that is going to players. Does the wording staff costs solely mean wages. There has to be more transparency. Some of the 700k increase does come to paying promotion bonuses

Our other strategy of finding someone to fund our losses is also unsustainable. Like most owners he will cut costs which will see back in L2. Sensible people who have made money do not do it by overspending.
Fan ownership isn't sustainable. Somehow we need to make it so.

Not read the article but from what I know about Exeter’s situation is that fan ownership in and of itself isn’t unsustainable - you need a well-run club and trust and without that then you find yourself in the situations Exeter find themselves in.

Toxic people management, weak financial control, financial irregularities, fan disengagement, censorship, losses despite growth, board members resigning without truthful explanations. Nobody asking where is the money going or where did it go. Thank heavens that’s not us.
Interesting article on the times website detailing Exeter's struggles and how they are in exactly the same position as we are. Fan ownership isn't sustainable

Having watched the highlights today as I had to work yesterday, I have to say that Orsi showed sublime skill in the build up to Browne’s goal and proper striker’s instinct for his poachers goal. I would be delighted to be proved wrong about him and to see yesterday spark a triumphant run of form, leading us to automatic promotion

No play offs this year as I am tired of dyeing my beard to make spit happy
Only one for first half hour at Hull City one evening back in the 80s.
