What was the rumoured fee that Solihull wanted and what was the rumoured fee we offered?

Nothing to chip in Pete. I just want a striker that can strike and I'm prepared to pay for one. I'm not too chuffed at the moment with the lads we have on trial, as they don't score goals from what I can see. I'm sure they are fine lads, and I wish them the best in their careers but I'm hoping my 2k can help us sign players we want instead of players we can afford.

Appreciate it's a tiny amount, but it's all I can do and I love my club. I'm not looking for likes or shite, just all I can do before I die and we are a Conference club. UTM.

Course, I've e-mailed John, had to miss a bit out for what I imagine are legal reasons:

Hi John, hope you are well.

If you'll see my post on the fishy, It's true. Not a huge amount but it's the best we can manage between us. Appreciate you have whacked so much money in. I would love to sign Omar Bogle, admiditely I haven't scouted him, you no doubt have done but me and my mate will put 4k in, not a lot I know but to us, it is. I want us back in the league, as you do and I'm prepered to put my small amount of money where my mouth is!!

We are Town, thank you for you support and your money. *number emailed to John* if you need confirmation. My 2k, no worries! let's get us in the league eh mate?!
Jason


So you are being specific thats its actually to be used for Bogle? A player that we have no idea if he actually wants to come here and a player that you and probably nobody else frequenting this board or B.P has actually seen play a football match?
Whip rounds/supporter action generally work when its a player we know, have seen the value of and more importantly want, ie with Joe Waters, Ivano.

Donating significant individual amounts of money to the club is honorable but in this manner seems a little misguided. Why not just buy 4K of advertising space for the season and slap your fish round details on it or have an executive box? 4k will still go to the club budget which achieves the same thing.

"Fishy poster funds ironside deal"

In all seriousness respect, if this gets the go ahead let's get together and put in no matter how big or small.

No, but I'd like a striker that has a proven strike rate, we've seen more than enough that haven't and dont. My business is a one man band, I see no reason to advertise at GTFC as my small business is in the midlands. I'm really not looking for an argument, or a pat on the head. I just want to do what I can. Let's all pull together, and get us back into the football league.

  i am a lifelong supporter, the club is deeply entwined in my heart and soul but......i am not the chairman, i am not on the board, i am not responsible for the budget setting or expenditure of the club and have zero influence on how the club is run or how much money we really have to spend. Therefore beyond my merchandise purchases, ticket purchases and matchday expenses the club gets nowt else.

No argument B.P, your choice, just seems strange to offer a fighting fund to the club when J.F was only quoted this week as saying money isnt an issue.
