Fan Ownership Straw Poll : Fri Nov 27, 2015 5:21 pm  
Since I don't attend anymore I have no concern about the outcome so here goes........... three simple questions, three simple answers, no bickering no bitching.
Apologies to NKPOM if you have already done this.

1. Do you believe that the London Broncos could operate as a fan owned concern? YES or NO

2. Are you prepared to financially support a fan owned club beyond purchasing a season ticket or attending games? YES or NO

3. If you answered YES to question 2. how much money per annum do you believe an individual should contribute? £xxxxx.xxx

Re: Fan Ownership Straw Poll : Fri Nov 27, 2015 5:34 pm  
Answer 1 as a full time professional club no.

Answer 2 and 3 therefore irrelevant in my case

You could set this up as a poll Mr Gobby ...

Anyway, my answers;
1. NO (not from starting where we are now, may have been credible a few seasons ago.)
2. YES but only a little, I'm too old for any substantial commitment, have to think of my heirs :-)
3. That's up to them. £500 max from me.

Yes
Yes
It would depend on numbers involved but clearly a substantial amount would be required

Suspect we need about 500k per annum, above current tickets, sponsors and rfl money. So would need 500 fans at £1000 or some similar combination. Can't see it happening. If 499 other people proved me wrong, would feel duty bound though.

Life is pretty simple: You do stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works.

Re: Fan Ownership Straw Poll : Fri Nov 27, 2015 9:15 pm  
Agree with BroncOnIon.

1. Yes but not for another 5 years as the fanbase needs to be developed.

2. Yes.

3. £500 a year. Could pay more but base needs to be accessible to majority. Perhaps a graded structure.

Re: Fan Ownership Straw Poll : Fri Nov 27, 2015 9:27 pm  
Glad to see a debate about supporter ownership, regardless of how its come about! No apologies due to me at all, I'm happy to engage on this subject any time any place,
One point I would make is that the job of a Trust wouldn't be to replace the top up that the club currently needs, it's about doing things a different way and taking a long term view in the interests of the club and the wider game.
As an example, only 4% of the income of Exeter City comes from the Trust, but it is a viable and thriving club.
There is a different way but in the meantime as supporters we will have an increasing influence and involvement in the Club over the next few years. I really believe the Broncos realise engagement with us is the only viable way forward.

Re: Fan Ownership Straw Poll : Fri Nov 27, 2015 10:49 pm  
No and no. I attended two games this season, both away fixtures, both floggings at the hands of tin pot clubs, and I cannot ally myself with the 'core' support of our club any more.

7-8 years ago it was a different story. It used to be a pleasure attending games and being taken the mickey out of by (forum username dropping clique alert) The Gob, Paddock Punter, wire quin and the like. I even met gutterfax once and he was a decent fella.

For me 2006-2012 were my favourite years supporting the club. That has all gone now and all you have left is a sorry embarrassment of a club ran by and followed by the deluded. London Broncos should have folded 3 years ago. The good times are over and will never return.

Good luck to those who still invest their time and money but I'm done.

This is the kind of crap I'm referring to.
