if it ever comes down to it we'll just drop a league or two, or come up with some kind of Exeter like scam to avoid it. But how can a club with no debt go bust? The fact of the matter is you pillock we don't want you, so whats the argument? And then if Eric does sell to you we'll just picket the gates so you can't get in

Re: Myfootballclub

Well I for one would be reasonably happy, depending on the identity of the multi-millionaire and his level of commitment. My problem is that I simply cannot forget the ludicrous MyFC concept - even for a moment.

Re: Myfootballclub

Dont agree with myFC theory, can u imagine the board meetings & its bad enough for a manager as it is if they wish or need to spend money on players, ground etc. If Eric wants to sell then should do so with best interest of accy stanley club. What do u get really for your £35 stake??? nice on fantasy football but not really for real life, can imagine alsorts of problems

Not quite - it was six games in 1961 - but you are near enough. Well done. Sadly, the 450-mile round trip for home games does make it a bit difficult but I think 10 per season plus 5 or 6 away games isn't too bad. I don't think I'll be quite as keen to watch Accrinton United, though.

As I explained in an earlier post, the MyFC members cannot profit in any way from such a situation. All profits from ANY business go right back into the club. It may be hard to believe, but none of us is in this trust to make money. It's simply against the laws, the way our trust is organized.

Re: Myfootballclub

Hopefully MFC have got the message.

Interesting to note that L.U.F.C are now top of their list. If Cuddly Ken Bates sells out to MFC then that's their lookout !!!

Seriously though, If this club that I love, is to survive as a league team, we have to get behind the efforts of all the people who are working hard to keep us where we aspired to be.

Bums on seats,feet on terrace,Turnstile clicking .(hopefully past the 2,500 mark)

Question Re: Myfootballclub

I doubt these fantasy football madmen would be welcome anywhere so why dont they do what FCUM did and just start their own club up? That way, if they screw it up they only screw themselves....

Interestingly, a number of MFC members who live near Accrington attended Stanley's last home game and posted a gernerally positive response from the people they spoke to on the terraces. This is not to say that MFC are looking to purchase AS - just that discuccions took place with some fans. MFC members are only too well aware that some fans will be hostile to MFC no matter what club we buy. Starting a club from scratch is not an option because no matter where we go we will be stepping on someones toes.

As regards screwing up anything - The worst that can happen to the club MFC buy is that the club will receive a financial injection of at least £1million. As I said before MFC is prohibited, by its own rules, from borrowing money and placing the club in debt, or entering contracts that could create a future financial burden on the club. In relation to AS - Eric Whalley has suggested that the club will not progress without further investment.

By the way - I actually don't favour MFC attempting to purchase AS, but many MFC members do. Either way I wish the club and its fans all the best.

They weren't stood in the open, by any chance.

Secondly, if they live near Accy, and support "football" why aren't they attending anyway, or do they just like window shopping?

(Nothing personal, BTW.)
