The Cat Posted 8 August, 2014 Share Posted 8 August, 2014 Looks like they've rattled enough buckets at the unemployed and robbed enough 3 year olds of the money they were saving to buy their sister a Mothers Day present next year to nearly make their £250k fundraising target. With only £3k left to raise they won't have to pawn many more gold teeth to make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 9 August, 2014 Share Posted 9 August, 2014 Indeed, that final 20% came from nowhere. And it arrived the very day before the first game. Remarkable. What a coincidence.

Danbert Posted 9 August, 2014 Share Posted 9 August, 2014 But I read it on here. The "owners" stumped up loads more "cash" and increased their "equity". Or did I miss something? There are shares, fantasy skate virtual shares, virtual fantasy football multiple ownership of penalty spots and outright donations. The skates funding the training pitches are donating their cash, without even the fig leaf of the ownership of a worthless piece of paper with the word "share" written on it. This used to be considered necessary for deluding the gormless fishy ones out of their hard-earned, but apparently no longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stug76 Posted 9 August, 2014 Share Posted 9 August, 2014 So, let me get this right. If a crowd funding campaign fails to meet it's target, no pledges are made and everyone keeps their money in their pockets? I'm assuming that there is no return on investment promised with this? So if Pompey don't meet the target it's all been a waste of time, however if they can convince someone to chuck in the missing 20% (50k) they will get the 80%(200k) to play with, less an administration fee for the crowd funding and probably a little bonus for the mystery investor. Is that really a possible scenario? All they need now is some local "hero" to chuck in the final 3k have his (or her) picture taken for the News and they can keep the Champagne flowing. If you were genuinely going to chuck in 50k, you'd go the whole hog and go with 53k to get them over the line wouldn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted 9 August, 2014 Share Posted 9 August, 2014 So let me get this clear. If you invest your money to paint the stands, replace the broken seats and replace the faulty wiring you get shares in the club. On the other hand if you invest your money to upgrade the training facilities you get a replica shirt or a mention on twitter. It's not hard to see how they raised so much money so quickly.
