Could the supporters buy Finch Farm?

    Keep it in the family so to speak?

    £15.5M needed. With the proviso the money raised is spent on players!

    That would mean a £520 investment for 30,000 true blues. Is this possible?

    £520 is a lot of money to a lot of people in these tough economic times. That would put a lot of food on the table, I'd love to have £520 in my back pocket but alas. I don't. However if I win the euromillions then expect a top class striker to arrive at goodison.

    Which bit do you not understand. The club do not own Finch Farm, they are tenants, they pay rent. The Current Landlord is offering the property for sale, any money received does NOT go to the club for players or anything else it goes to the current owner. It would be a great idea for the fans to buy it because we would then be a proper part of the club structure but on a businesslike basis. It would be great if tens of thousands of fans got involved, but it really only needs 500-1000 of reasonably well off blues or even just a couple of rich blues who want to be part of what it's about but are not just throwing their money away, they get a return.

    We are the poor mans Madrid in relation to selling and renting our training ground. Dont know what the terms are for our renting of Finch Farm but would have thought that in these hard economic times we could buy a bit of land fairly cheeply and develope it. It would no longer be rent but an investment, granted history would be lost but hasn't it already??
