Re: Myfootballclub

Willie - please read the posts - you will see they are consistant on the topic of money.

I agree - although given the financial implications of both - I don't think even MFC could solve the problem.

Re: Myfootballclub

Just for clarification - the members of MFC cannot make any financial gain from the purchase of the club (it's in the rules of MFC). If the club is sold any funds will be distributed to charity...

Re: Myfootballclub
