MyFootballClub Details
The MyFootballClub community is the first Internet organisation to buy and takeover a real-world football club. Become more than just a fan. In 2007, myfootballclub purchased Ebbsfleet United, in England's Blue Square Premier League. In 2013, members voted to sell the club and start a new venture.In June 2013, members voted to become sponsors of Slough Town FC. "The Rebels", currently plays in the Southern Football League Division One Central. That's level 8 in the English Football Pyramid and 4 levels below professional League 2.MyFootballClub is a unique internet venture that uses the principle of crowdsourcing and crowdfunding to run a real football club. As owners of Ebbsfleet United, myfootballclub members each contributeed small amounts annually, and voted on key management decisions like the budget, transfer deals, kit supplier contracts, kit design, election of Club officials, and even approved the Manager's contract!This model brings a unique dialogue between the club and the community, with local fans sharing knowledge about the club, and global members contributing their expertise and skills that would otherwise cost the club. Members are able to bring fresh ideas, which are discussed and voted on as a community, for action by the ClubIt also brings a level of transparency into the Club management which is rarely seen, with members even able to discuss line items from the Monthly budget with the Club accountant openly as a community.
