That's a bit harsh Bill, he's only saying what you know from personal experience to be true.

Maybe Donny was not trying to appear negative but was advertising for a benefactor/investor.

that as well maybe but he shouldn't go around critisicing people for trying to give advice about the problems they have had when trying to raise funds through various ideas and methods if he has a positive input I would gladly like to hear it,not just negatives.

Then you know where I'm coming from

I think it's a bit much to expect one person to take the debt on themselves which is why I suggested the ltd company to spread the risk.

As the club would probably only be open on match days, it would probably take a while to pay back the debt with profits

Pubs are not very profitable (except for the brewery) so perhaps it would only sell bottled beers etc which would bring down the cost of a draught system and keep breweries out the picture. It would probably also cut licencing fees, health and safety etc. Cheap drink can be brought in and sold for say 50p profit per bottle.

A partnership could be established with a local pub to get exclusive use of one of their suites before and after games although that's probably no better than what most fans currently do
