Ever wanted to own a sports team? If someone says “football” do you think “match” instead of “game?” If so, you’ll want to know about a new site/org called MyFootballClub which is aiming to make football history in just 3 easy steps:
- Get at least 50,000 members who will pay 35 pounds each (equal to $70.81 today).
- Use the pooled money to buy an English football club
- Have its members, who are also owners, vote on team selection, player transfers, etc.
If interested, they, or I should say we, have reached the magic 50k threshold and now are in talks with 4 different teams (nameless for now, though they are in the Division Two and Conference divisions). Overseas payments are now accepted and I paid yesterday.
I cannot wait to see what club we end up with!

Hi from a fellow MFC member!
I too can’t wait to see what club we end up with! There’s a lot of negativity going on but hopefully, we’ll show these sceptics that they are wrong and we are right!
What type of negativity has there been? Everything I have heard has been positive…
I commented on IconBlog but I will comment again–I joined this club just so that I can talk about football with you 🙂
I am so glad that finally there’s an American who know what football is!
Cheers,
See-ming
