“An abso-f**** lutely genius idea.”

This is my first contribution to the site, and I’ve always been the guy sitting on the sidelines, extensively reading product reviews on Amazon, but never contributing myself. I never intend to change that, but I did decide to contribute because of this brilliant (probably not so brilliant) thought I had.

I’ve always been a massive football fan, and my dad being from Manchester, I kind of followed his footsteps when I got my first Cantona jersey. But then again,I love football, I love the passion, I love Dortmund, I love Atletico Madrid and like a every Athletic Bilbao fan, I raise my hat and applaud good football wherever I see it. Except Mourinho. F*** that guy.

I love football so much that I got into a lot of trouble to watch a game I couldn’t afford to miss. In boarding school, military school, boot camp, deployments, everywhere. And now, I’m lying in my tent, dirty, tired, while attempting to be the first guy to walk the entire coastline of South Africa, solo, self-sustained, with everything on my back. 2400miles in a 100 days. And I’m 35 days in. And I still have time to watch highlights, and read Football365, even though I should probably save battery for a snake bite emergency. (You should follow the adventure btw, it’s called @myonionandme. )

That said, walking for days and nights on end, does give you a lot of time to think. And I was thinking a lot last night. Especially with the transfer window just ending. A survey couple of years ago showed that Manchester United, for example, had around 659 million fans worldwide. Half that, to reduce media and statistic rear end-hattery, and say 300 million. So what if the fans of a club, any club, throw in £5 in a hat and say, here, that’s my contribution towards the next transfer window. And completely withhold any claim or right, no shares or nothing, as long as it is used for transfers. So, in the case of Manchester United, that will be around 1.5 Billion dollars. (I’m using Utd as an example simply because i don’t exactly have statistics at my fingertips.) I don’t know about everyone else, but I would definitely pay five or even ten bucks to see United sign Messi.

So, question, is this possible? What would be the implications on the club/financial rulings? Can fans of a club get together, maybe through the official website, drop money in the proverbial hat, or raise enough cash, and tell the board, here you go, 1 Billion! – Go sign Messi!

Can they?
Stig, MUFC (I would pay £50 to see Fellaini not play.)

It's fine to support Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao because one is Spanish and the other is Euskal*

quote:

Players like Cork and Ki are not the type of midfielders that Guidolin will want commandeering the midfield though. At Udinese, the Italian’s team was powered by gritty, hard-working midfielders such as Gokhan Inler and Kwadwo Asamoah; powerhouses that, first and foremost, ran hard and tackled even harder. While still very much technically able, they were an intimidating shield to Udinese’s back four, leading them to successive fourth place finishes in Serie A. These players are pivotal to everything Guidolin will try to achieve in South Wales.

Jonjo Shelvey was an enigma, but an argument could easily be made that he could suit that role far better than the more stylistic Ki and Cork. Although, Shelvey’s disciplinary record would render his position a tight-rope every match, where one small mistake could land both Shelvey and his side in serious hot water.
