My Football Club

[Superphil]

Well, OK, they are not a League club yet, but www.myfootballclub.co.uk have made a deal to take over a club

MyFootballClub has agreed a deal in principle to purchase a controlling stake in Ebbsfleet United FC. Placed 9th in the Conference, Ebbsfleet United FC is one promotion from reaching the Football League for the first time in its history.

Just got the email myself. I think it's quality... A real opportunity to see if this will work

Ebbsfleet International Station, on the Eurostar line, opens on 19 November. It's approximately 500m from the Stonebridge Road ground. A high speed 15-minute domestic service from St Pancras will be introduced in 2009.

Live in Paris...watch the mightly Ebbsfleet Utd of a weekend no problem

Cool, you are now Chris McPhee's bosses.

And Gary Elphick (presuming this takeover doesn't mess up his move).

Sack the board!!!

Sounds great in theory but I'm not sure it will work in practice. Read David Sullivan's comments here http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/birmingham_city/7081468.stm

The man talks a lot of sense.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Yep - some good stuff in there.
"From his experience at Birmingham, Sullivan believes the majority of fans are intelligent but that they do not always understand the realities of running a football club."

The amount of DICKHEADS on the 606 board claiming they've been let down and should have bought LEEDS or FOREST or some other sleeping giant!
What planet are these people on, of course they were only ever gonna buy a club with potential.
Be interesting to see how it goes but I really do worry about them trying to give the fans too much say in the on pitch decisions. Especially when to make these decisions it's gonna give the opposition all the info it needs!

 

[Badger]

Do you think they will have all the features of Football Manager like being able to fine players?

 

[Stinkers Bridge]

I think Paul McCarthy still plays for Ebbsfleet as well.

Same here not sure if it will work, be intresting to see what happens though.

Have we got to the bit, where all the people who pledged money fail to actually produce any, yet?

Are they the ones that spend their life claiming to be considerably richer than everyone else?

Quite possibly. Have anyone in particular in mind?

A few spring to mind...

It's a pity that perhaps a few more of those who registered didn't contribute, then they might have ben able to have made a deal/offer for a league club.
