Who's up for going on the next series asking them to invest in our footie club?

Yeah we'll be laughed out the building, especially by Theo but it would be class.

And possibly our only chance to speak to 5 rich dudes at once, if you don't ask, you don't get.

It'd be fucking superb, next in the dragon's den are 3,000 Swindon Town fans.

They'd all say no, but it'd be a great way of getting some national coverage!!

We could show them a video of our achievements, then show the harsh reality of today!

The pitch to the Dragons is meant to be more than 5 minutes Wink

Well the 69 final, 90 and 93 po finals could last 2 minutes, then we've got 3 minutes to show how shit it's really got!

That's one of the best ideas I've heard in ages.

Instead of the dragons (and audience) laughing at a hysterically optimistic business plan put together by monkeys who don't understand the difference between gross profit and net profit, and haven't even thought about how much they could realistically sell, a proper multi scenario plan could be put together, featuring:

1. The base case plan: Mid table obscurity (Projected profit: -£700k)
2. The low plan: Humiliating relegation due to footballing incompetence (Projected profit: -£1.5Mn)
3. The low low plan: Humiliating relegation due to financial irregularities (Projected profit: -£2Mn)

The finale to this could presumably be getting some overweight man on in a too small replica shirt making sexist remarks to that stern looking woman they have on there about her inability to understand the proposal due to her being 'a bird'.

As each of the "dragons" pull out the Swindon fan can be seen giving them the wanker sign whilst silently mouthing "waaaaannnnnnnnnkkkkkeeeeeerrrrrrr" to them, in true football style.

and Theo would be the only one who would even consider investing in STFC (awaits silly rumours that Theo plans to take over because Wise is an old pal   )

This is a great idea, although I dont watch the program.

We could start a reality TV infiltration. there must be a town fan who can sing? Get em on the X factor, win it and invest the record deal money into the club. I nominate STFC bart
