    Until more details come out, I’m thinking this is like the FoH at Hearts.
    Over 8000 pay a contribution monthly, generating over £1m (not sure of the exact figure).
    Not all season ticket holders / supporters contribute.

    So those willing and able to put more into the club have a way of doing so and allows those that can’t afford not to.
    Season tickets are frozen, this is a way to increase revenue and protect those who may be struggling to pay for a season ticket to maintain the price

    No-one will be forced to join, just as no-one is forced to buy a season ticket. Different strokes for different folks. At least wait until the details are out before we write it off as elitist or ****e.

    I presume we all want AFC to progress. In today’s world, that means, like it or not, generating additional revenue. One of the main sources of income is the fanbase, so the club should definitely explore that option.

    Plenty of exiled AFC fans around the world who may see this as a good way of helping the club they love.


    The details ARE out already. The club has been phoning people with high LP totals and sending them information in order to persuade them to become "founders" - the first 150 that sign up get a special "founders" pack. There is also an "international" membership for folk living abroad. It includes what I presume is a free match ticket for "homecoming".

    You keep saying it’ll be like the Hearts Foundation. I’ll be suprised if Milne will be willing to offer up part ownership of the club to the fans. We’ll see when the finer details come out, although I like how you’re ignoring the detail known already.

    Lol, evening stalker.
    If you keep up you’ll see that there’s been plenty of comments and I said I’d reserve judgement until the details are formally released.
    I also just said how I am looking at this until the details are released.

    How can I ignore what I’ve yet to see
    Love how your twisting the ignorant part after it was labelled at You earlier.

    Incidentally, I did not say it WILL be like the FoH, just making similarities.
    Certainly I expect there to be difference, but you choose to ignore the similarities in additional revenue generation

    So can you give us a link then. Obviously I am not a top red, as I see nothing on the AFC website. I am not being funny, I genuinely would like to see more details.

    Good evening you massive chunt. The details are pretty much out there. If they included infecting everyone with aids you'd probably back it.
