I'm more than happy to drive this, however impossible it is!

I am not saying there aren't 1,000 fans out there willing to do it.....but just to drag it back to a little bit of reality, we had 859 Season Ticket holders in 2012 including Kids.

If it came to the life or death of the club, offering a viable future at champs level with a sound business plan from NEW management it would be possible to get 1000 people to buy into it.

How much investment per head?

We know neither the numbers nor the investment per head. However, I - and I expect others - are happy to invest a few hundred even if turns tits up.

Oh, and I'm not a season ticket holder, so I don't think the 859 figure is any kind of maximum level of support. There are thousands of disaffected Broncos who have attended a game or two in London in the past 5 years and there lies the key.

Interesting comment "Leigh said there should be a London-based NRL side. I agree with him. See Discord's sister column, Travels, over at RLfans.com." Read more: http://www.canberratimes.com.au/rugby-l ... z2ahseoyN7

The comment about the Pompey Trust recruiting members willing to invest way in excess of others is a good one

Would be interested in contributing if anything came of this

As I said before I'm really heartened by the positive attitude of most people on this thread. Talk to people at the game tonight about it and see what reaction you get. I'll get the game over first then resurrect the website http://rllist.wordpress.com/ and post some initial thoughts on what I think the Trust could achieve, and a method for making a pledge. If we get 5 pledges then its dead, but if we can gain some momentum then who knows? If it shows promise perhaps we can hold a meeting around the Huddersfield home game. The hook line I came up with was "£1,000 a year from a 1,000 people" - lets see how we go and pledge what you can.
