| The way forward must be a fan/business partnership. Administration need not happen and if numbers being banded about are correct should not happen.
Would you join a supporters trust guaranteeing a minimum annual sum between £500-2000 if more then please indicate?
My Intention is to have a body of fans combining the smaller numbers to have Influence and impact on the future success of the club we love.
Those interested PM me, if you want a call leave your number
Neil

| Is this the same fan ownership that Andy is talking about or a different one?

| Please pm willingness I do not have all answers as nothing is concrete and this is not my baby. I have already got fantastic response and would like this group to play its role in the solution that hopefully materialises over the next couple of weeks
Our problems are income and I believe in the partnership solution

| I personally believe a lower amount, per share, would be more attractive - say 200.
The more people on board with a stake the more interested they will be in the clubs success. Far better to have 500 at 200 than 200 at 500.

if its not your baby whose is it?
is your proposal one man one vote or is it according to the amount you put in?
a share certificate for your sock drawer is hardly ownership especially if you have no real say

Mish
Neil sings from the same hymn sheet as me on many things and has similar visions and is a successful buisness person in his own right.
I'd urge anyone who can to back him with this to do so as he has the ear of Many of the other guys working behind the scene and has the enthusiasm and ambition that can potentially make things happen.
If I can be of any assistance to you Neil you know we're I am mate.
Best of Luck,
Andy

| It's all getting very confusing already and I presumed that as Neil has started his own thread rather than carrying on where the other left off it must be a different group.

| For clarity I am looking for a group of like minded fans to pool funds at an individually lower level than the drivers but cumulatively the same. I currently don't have 10k pa but I have a couple and others may be in a similar boat.
My personal vision on this is wide fan share ownership at low entry levels, £100 a share for example, working with business to generate the cash and culture we need to take this club to be the best it can be. The business's involved must provide the leadership that will ignite the passion, a glimpse of which we have seen the past 2 weeks on and off the pitch.
So if you potentially want in and want a call leave your number on the PM - I wont be adding anymore as I am talking for me and not anyone else. All who have PM'd thank you.

Great idea but not enough Keith
The fans should be part an integral part of a recgonised management structure with information and ideas flowing bothways across the structure. Unfortunatley to implement that communication structure would require the old management ideas to be 'put to bed'. TB could have guided the transition. A new direction was required to ensure the future of the club long term, for our kids and grandkids.

| Sorry but I can't afford £500 per year. But I still think it's positive that you are doing this. Good luck.

| We seem to have a whole pile of initiatives at the moment : "fan" ownership, Derek B's group, LISA, Touchdown, current directors (only 1 left now?). It will be interesting to see how all this lot can work together or even if it will.
Right now we need a change in a approach, i worry if we get people from the past back that they will carry on where they left off which worked back then but has shown long term its not helped.
Fan ownership is interesting but would need some visionaries with community and marketing focus and an aim to be a not for loss company (i see sporting clubs like social housing, you aint never gonna get rich but you can stop yourself becoming poor).
I could be persuaded to be involved but if all the 4 other parties are still there it will be a very confused structure.

| What is brilliant is that folk are passionate, going into their pockets and trying to do something about-don't you agree?
I always think its better to select the best option than have none
Hopefully those driving can disclose more in the next week or so

| agree with that maurice, the future is looking much more positive. I'm sure there will be clarity over the next few weeks as each group works out exactly what the proposal is.
Leigh will be much stronger if we all work together. Afterall we all want a successful and sustainable Leigh (club and town).
Vast amounts of my non working time are spent providing activities for the kids of this town for no reward other than seeing them succeed and have fun, the spare hours i do get are stood in the north stand or with my family.
There are plenty who do and will continue to do the same as i do but through our rugby club and that deserves support.
In all the gloom its actually a good news story. Only in Leigh could we get innovation (centurions TV/community foundation), entertainment (20 - 0 win over strong batley side), desperation (no dosh to pay players) and hope (DB, Andy, yourself and all the other people who care) all within 3 days.
I really don't want to lose that.
See you all at York.
