And in the days when you could sell a Mikeal Blixt to Berwick to balance the books Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would anyone be interested in starting up a fans consortium to try and save our club. This is a legit post. No lies being told here. I'll put some money in but I cant buy the club myself because I don't have that kind of money but if their are enough fans willing to start a consortium and they have some money to put in then we can arrange a meeting place at the Showground to try and work something out together as a collective group. If you have an interest in this then please let me know. No time wasters though as I'm being serious because the clubs future is at stake here. One problem might be unfortunetly that many people gave there spare money to Ged a few years ago and some would say he never offered any back when he sold the club or allegedly took the Poles cash. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 If this is a serious idea I’d probably suggest keeping your powder dry from now on about the guy you want to buy it from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wealdstone Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Many would be willing and able to contribute a one off amount. Longer term is the problem. You will need to have a plan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) Amongst the fans there are probably many good business men/women with good ideas on how to keep the club running at a sustainable rate. You would need to set up a proper fans committee. Edited August 13, 2019 by Baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davet Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 But would Chapman sell to anyone who wanted to drop down to Championship level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigACE Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 I am a outsider looking in re Peterborough. Clearly money is being kept away from the Club. It looks as though everybody has given up. Why ?. You never give up in Sport. As bad as giving up is, Is this just for the rest of the season or for good ?. I am reading genuine concern that there may be no more Peterborough Panthers after this season. NO WAY. I have seen far too many good Clubs with lovely people connected to them just totally vanish. Must NOT happen to this one. I am with you all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wealdstone Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Heard Ged got a quite decent amount. Not sure how much as there could have been very few assets majority of which I would suggest were bought by the supporters club and fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
