Title: Business idea
Post by: Coca Fola on Thursday, May 3, 2012, 14:50:39
I don't know if this has been done before but what about football fan hire. If smaller teams such as Accrington, Macclesfield etc want more fans for a certain game they can purchase the services of a certain number of fans. A bit like Medieval armies recruiting mercenaries for their army.

The club pays for their services. The money goes to to the fan agency and it delegates a certain amount out as wages. It's not a full time job you register for a fee, you put your name down as free on a certain date and you're allocated a match where you're required. Travel costs are covered by the company and the club pays for your ticket in the fee.

So Coca Fola, all this " I dont know if this has been done before " was a smoke screen and you tried it on without success.  :no:

Bit late for that now, you clearly didn't prepare your pitch, shame on you.

Why would the club want to bring in fans who don't give a shit.

But if the service is out there, I'd happily enter my name and watch football matches for free. Travel costs too, so I can have a nice trip out to a different city
