Want to own a football club?

Found this today:

NORTHFLEET, England - The question of who's the boss of England's small Ebbsfleet United soccer team is about to get interesting. If all goes as expected, the answer will soon be 26,000 people with Internet connections.

This month, via a Web site called myfootballclub.co.uk., those soccer fans are slated to take control of the minor-league team in southeast England. Members of the group, including some 1,500 people in the U.S., built up their takeover offer by each pledging $70.50. If the deal goes through as expected, a professional soccer team will be run by an online community for the first time in the history of the sport.

The probable new owners will manage the club, voting online to choose match lineups and buying new players. To help run the team, the fans will be able to view all the matches online and, after the game, receive statistics on how each player has performed. They will also get weekly updates from the team's head coach on how each player is doing during practice.

If you are lucky, just by lottery ticket, maybe you won some $

Good luck

For fans who are fed up with the existing set-up, it is the ultimate fantasy: buy your team and run it yourself.
