Wycombe Wanderers, my home town club, is fan owned, a Supporters Trust secured ownership in 2012.
Supporters Trust purchase Wycombe
Supporters group the Wycombe Wanderers Trust successfully complete the purchase of the League Two club from Steve Hayes.www.bbc.com
Ah, that's the Feliciana crowd, isn't it, it rang a bell it had changed from total fan ownership.February this year, Rob Couhig (an American lawyer and cohort of Donald Trump) purchased 75% of Wycombe, fans only own 25% now.
I believe it is only Exeter City of the League clubs in England that are fully Supporters Trust owned now with Grimsby and Carlisle being like Wycombe with Supporters Trusts having minority shareholdings.
They’ll be a new ‘Adult’ section of the Spurs shop available under A&CTrying to picture @Archibald&Crooks running the club. We’d have half the season ticket holders banned before Christmas
@Houdini would liven up the club shop with some ‘special interest’ club merchandise while @bomberH would be giving away tickets to any/all beautiful women.
Yeah, but we'd all be quoting old quotes, shouting 'to dare is to do' and reminding ourselves we won't be doing a Leeds because we spent that extra 8 million to buy Ross Barkley ... We'd be fine.Fans are morons.
We'd have a new manager every other week.
There are exceptions though
Bayer Leverkusen - Bayer majority owned
Wolfsburg - VW majority owned
RB Leipzig - Red Bull 100% owned, either directly or by directors that work for Red Bull.
Hoffenheim, founder of SAP owned, and those latter 2 have caused of lot of resentment there
Indeed they are, but all the "fan members" of the club are also members of the Board of Red Bull, meaning in effect they 100% control the club.
