Buy Your Own Football Club..No, Really

I've just come across MyFootballClub.co.uk, which is a site that aims to get 50,000 football fans together to buy yer real, actual football club.

For a £35.00 subscription, you get to help decide which club to buy, put in your two pence worth over tactics, team selection and player purchases.

And yes, they are serious.

Unlike some of the clubs that subscribers (and they're up to 45,000+ already) have suggested to buy : let's face it, Liverpool and Manchester United are way out of the price range. Even Leeds United or Notts Forest isn't realistic.

My personal view is that buying a climbing Conference or Isthmian League club - like Gravesend and Northfleet - would be a productive, exciting and worthwhile venture.

My cynical side thinks this isn't going to work at all. Although, I would very much like it to succeed.
