    I don't really believe in it's potential and I don't think it's a good use of £850 either.

    But it's great to see City fans actually achieving something so credit to Jon for kicking it off and all the contributors, I've just chipped in £20 and it's almost there.

    Give it a rest !! You can say anything you want on this forum. Insult anyone you want. But now because it's a protest against the club don't disagree or you are banned. !!

    It's totally different when there is members money involved... this isnt a typical thread and anyone who isnt out to cause grief can surely see that

    Well done to everyone involved

    Irrespective of the background notions around bans, price increase and politics, well done to all whom have contributed and those in the background whom have worked hard in @JonButterfield@JonButterfield and @Nick_W_@Nick_W_ . Nearly there and being so close to achieving a goal in such a small period is unexpected, on my part.

    This is imo a tiny journey in aiming for change. They'll be potentially much harder journies moving forward.

    In the short time frame you've got would Pompey be achievable?

    Sorry but I disagree. You allow anyone to say anything they want on this forum. Oh wait a minute but not on this thread !! You quoted earlier you had 1000+ members. How many many have donated ? 5% ?

    Now the total is reached.. and well done on that @JonButterfield@JonButterfield and @Nick_W_@Nick_W_

    It would be a good idea to either edit the just giving page content to what any extra donations are going towards

    Also start a new thread on here with the link explaining the plan

    Or alternatively lock the just giving funding page

    That's because it won't make a difference. Every time a set of fans does this now it gets less and less publicity, the people being campaigned against don't care about it and all it does is cause a distraction to the players both before and after it happens. And it just makes the fans of that club look like twats to fans of other clubs and also to 90% of your own fans. And in this case the person it's being aimed at might not even be there to see it (its not like its the United fans doing it to Moyes as Moyes had to be there, even the one against Ed there was a decent chance he would be there as he is pretty much at every home game)

    All it really archives is to give those who donated feel like they are 'doing something' but in reality, with a bit of thought and creativity the money could most likely be used in a much more effective way
