BMC 125 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I know that people tend to buy shares in their clubs more for fun than profit but a guy I spoke to in a pub (honestly!) said that clubs in Germany or at least some clubs, or club, Sold bonds to their fans to help finance building a new stadium.It was no big money bonds either but plenty of them paying a small interest as usual every year,Got me thinking if it was possible for us?

JMac_88 310 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Would be intresting to know how many supporters have actually put money in? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Would be intresting to know how many supporters have actually put money in?We'll find out on the 18th of this month. By the looks of it it's looking good and thats only a few people on here.i've seen people say they have put in up to 7k and they're familys are all doing the same.and it's still early days.

JMac_88 310 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Wow, I could only put £500 in, due to it being so close to Christmas, but did not want to lose-out on my chance to invest in the hope that they did extend the date so i could put more in.

Brackley 1,412 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Paid my cash but according to the prospectus there's no guarantee you will get all you apply for as season ticket holders, old debentureholders etc will be given priority.Also think the timing is poor with only a window of a week to buy them cash ( debit card only) so soon before Christmas.

In the know 26 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 only £775,000 from fans so far which is very disappointing as it equates to less than 2% of the club. If fans took up whole £10m we would represent 20% of the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If fans took up whole £10m we would represent 20% of the club.How do you know how much has been paid so far? What is more to the point, assuming you have the correct information, do you have permission to leak it to the public? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bufforbero 128 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Just in for £500.

I honestly didn't know and was waiting for a prospectus and application to come in post.Glad I read this post. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madina 4,277 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I wonder what the sum raised will be. I'm not expecting too much tbh with the time of year.I know a few folk who arent buying shares after what happened to their last ones. Each to their own I suppose Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Just submitted my application. Here's hoping that a good number of Bears are able to invest. It will take serious money to get back to the very top and to grab the ambition Charles mentioned in the 140 Years programme of his next promise to us to get Champions League action back at Ibrox again. Now I don't know how quickly we can do this but I'm absolutely convinced that it will need very good funds to keep and obtain the very best players we can and to keep Ibrox well maintained as a top class stadium. So although it is a painful time of year to find funds I hope that as many Bears as possible can get some shares to help fund that ambition.

pcbear 10,932 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I suggested we could buy sections of the pitchFor instance a square foot for £50 and you get a nice certificate saying you own that piece of the playing surfaceI did the maths at the time and it ran into millions and with the fans owning the pitch it could only ever be used for one purposeGreat Idea ,if an average pitch is 75 yards wide = 225 feet, by 115 yards long =345 feet that would be a total area of 77,625 square feet, at £50 per square foot that would swell the coffers by £3,881,225.Not bad.i did purchase my shares last night.

govanblue 16,847 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Great Idea ,if an average pitch is 75 yards wide = 225 feet, by 115 yards long =345 feet that would be a total area of 77,625 square feet, at £50 per square foot that would swell the coffers by £3,881,225.Not bad.Selling 77,625 would be a bit of a tall order though. Maybe bigger squares, thus less of them, would be better?Maybe charge more for penalty spots and other prized areas?Maybe get to choose your own grass colour (choices are blue, red or white only )Maybe I should go to bed. Goodnight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
