Alex to float on stock exchange!

[crewedaft]

Crewe Alexandra FC have announced they are to float on the stock exchange in a bid to create new investment in the club. A club spokesperson has said:

"We initially aim to float 100 shares at a competitive price of 10p each. In this way we hope to secure ten pounds of new investment into the club. We hope to invest the capital in new facilities as there is a metal rail outside the main stand that is in need of a lick of paint. We are determined to bring 21st century facilities to the Gresty Road faithful. If the initial floatation is a success we could look to release another 50 shares, as a seat in the main stand has a loose screw. This clearly shows that the club has a bright future and is investing in its most precious commodity - its fans".

I didn't fall for it for a second. This plan is far too ambitious for the club's commercial operation to have thought of it.

It's true and if it goes well there will be more shares issued.
Closing date for applications is 31st November
Priority to season ticket holders though !

Our strikers ought to have tried floating the ball toward the oppositions net sometime during this season!
