I'm serious! Needs to happen now.

How to instigate it? Would Doughty need to request his £ back? If that would instigate administration I'm all for it

These twats have shot it with me now

Again Administration does nothing as we don't owe money to anyone else... Any buyout would have to honour or buyout existing players contracts so you talking Millions for the next 2-3 years before any money to buy new players!

You would need a lot of fans with a lot of money...even a full stadium 30,000 @ £1000 each wouldn't come close to the amount we would need to honor liabilities and buy ND out.

Well, they're not really mine. Of the list, only the cash is. but I have two half full boxes of staples. Oh and I can also bring in a broken office/PC chair. At this rate I will be the majority shareholder.

Here is the story of the Swansea City Supporters Trust and the role it played in turning our fortunes around. It was instrumental in getting rid of a chairman that did not have our best interests at heart and was the catalyst for creating a consortium of local business people to buy and invest in the club. Most importantly the Trust was able to buy a sufficient stake in the club to have a seat on the Board which means we are involved in all decision making. The numbers are obviously different at Forest but there are also a wider pool of wealthier Forest fans.

Honestly. Even if you spend it on beer and hookers - you won't have done a worse job than the people who look after the money now at the City Ground.

Wrexham have recently done it. The Wrexham supporters trust now own Wrexham F.C. after a couple of dodgy chairmen totally f**ked the club up. All the supporters had to contribute was £12 annual subscription to join the trust. There was also the matter of a £250,000 bond that had to be paid to the Football Conference as a guarantee that Wrexham would be able to fulfil their fixtures. This was raised through loans from supporters. That money has now been returned to the football club and the lenders will be receiving their money back over the course of the next couple of weeks. They have been top of the Conference since the early weeks of the season having lost only 3 matches out of 27.

If a club with average crowds of under 4,000 can do it - - - - - - -

I can't offer much cash, but I will play up-front if that helps. I may struggle to make every Saturday though, and some evening games.

To be fair, if we continue to plummet like a stone, I may be able to make more games, as they'll be switched to Sundays. Problem solved.

I wouldn't want Forest being run by our fans, to be honest.

And what's more, NFFC own nothing. The CG isn't ours, the training ground isn't ours... it is a collection of mediocre yet greedy players, indifferent coaching staff and a manager who doesn't like to play football like the fans want to watch...
Not worth anything.
