Must be real, they've got a twitter!

If you were going to do something like this wouldn't you have a website ready to go at launch and have it splashed over the CT with all the details of who's behind it?

"If you have the right contacts, point them in our direction."

That's my favourite line. Plus the fact they've already spent money on a kit design. Someone was bored last night!!

I think after due diligence is done one pound may be too much for the club.

Wow, it's only £3m! It's a snip at this price. An absolute bargain - Out £3m, In £70m debt - I'm in!

I'd like to take this seriously but I am struggling to, even the Telegraph haven't been able to contact the Group.

Strange that.

Does Indiegogo have some kind of payment protection or is it only the word of this group and their Twitter account that you'd get your money back? I mean, they do sprinkle words like 'entrepreneur' and 'promise' around but you'd hope they'd offer a little more than that. From the two links there's less actual information than you'd expect to see if someone had set it up as a prank.

No, do you think I am stupid?

I am sending it to a bloke in Nigeria instead who has no family but needs somewhere safe to store 1 million pounds, he is going to collect it from me and let me keep 500k, I just need to give him my personal details! Proper deal that is!

Seriously though? 3 million? Ha.

I can't actually believe the CET ran this as a story either. 'We're trying to contact the group', how exactly are they doing that then with no names or contact details?

You cynical bastards, I've remortgaged the house and sold my children to be a part of this.

I was there from the start and I will lord it over you when I am photographed with our new signings of Bale, Messi, Ronaldo and Francis Benali.
