The fans group will raise their own funds....in theory....if anyone is intersted in doing something other than moaning about the club.

something is being "done"..so watch this space..........

I would have no problem contributing £5 a month by DD to the Harlequins Rugby League Marketing Fund.

Now there's an idea.......

Count me in for the £5, but the wrangle over how it is spent will be something else!

mm...possibly.



If there were say 750 people contributing, then they would elect a team/committee of 5 to "oversee" the spend. This committee would have to agree by a 4/1 + majority on the spend.....not ideal, but £45,000 to spend over the course of a season only equates to just short of £3.5k a game, so any mistakes/failures wouldn't be the end of the world would it.

I know that the club should be doing this, but I would have no problem giving up my time to help with such a program.

If the 750 members all had an opportunity to put forward ideas, which the elected committee could then vote on, then it would get the approval of the club I don't think there would be too many foul ups.

I tell you what....how funny would it be if (and it will never even get past the dreamland of these boards) this Fans Funded Marketing Group actually made a difference.....



If we got an extra 10,000 over the season, that would be a 20% increase at no cost to the Club.......and the Marketing Team (as such that there is one) would look very silly indeed.

Ah a man with a plan, excellent, the five person committee could be called The Directorate, I am not greatly in favour of things run by committee, I am reminded of the camel that came out of a committe that was trying to design a horse! But if we have the talent, time, funds and permission this could be very inovative.

Well I disagree, I think it should be called The Taskforce.



(I don't really, I just wanted to write some rubbish)

Ladies and Gentlemen...we have our first committee member.

That's what im talking about, im in...but I want it called 'Crowdbuilder'



Season ticket prices are too cheap anyway, so fans could contirbute the difference between what they're paying and what they should be paying to the fans marketing force.

Marketing & CrowdBuilder Taskforce Committee Directorate.



Gun.

we'll have to vote on what it's called

No. I'm the only committee member therefore the decision has already been made, unanimously I might add.



Now, where's the £45k for me to embezzle? You didn't put it in Icesave did you gf?

You all missed my reference to The Directorate, this was the body in the French Revolution from which Napoleon emerged! IIRC
