If he wants to chuck £250 our way, I see no problem.

It's not like he can do anything to disrupt the club with £250's worth of shares. It's kinda win win for us if it raises our profile in the States.

Yeah, don’t get the negativity, if he wants to buy some shares and follow the club then why not?

Given the superb start to the season we have had the last thing we need is a willy-waving exercise come media stunt.

Poor choice of words considering what allegedly happened last season, and we've got enough willy-waving posters on here anyway.

"Do you think I'm here for your amusement" & good riddance to bad rubbish

More overseas fans the better imho. Get him hooked and he’ll be buying replica gear.

Hope the club have welcomed his offer of buying the £250 shares package.

Technically, the club are not selling any shares the trust are selling shares and any monies received for shares goes to the trust not the club.

That said, with news of Wrexham allegedly shifting an extra £360k worth of ‘merch’ since the documentary first aired then bring it on lol

Wonder if he was involved in buying London Bridge thinking it was Tower Bridge he was purchasing.

God I hate this league.

He’s bought his 250 shares by the look of things. Good stuff.

I don’t see how it will have any impact at all.

God knows who is but with only 22k followers on Twitter he wouldn’t appear to be some big shot in terms of media presence.

His mate that he mentioned that was buying shares with him was an ex NFL player too

Hardly the big spender is he but I've no problem with him investing in our club and, hopefully, generating support from across the pond.

Who is he, by the way?

I don’t think he’s claiming to be a big shot. Just someone who wants to follow us that’s all. No different from Ukrainian Spireite, Alf in Norway or the boys from Belgium.

That was kinda the point I was making. The post I was replying to seemed to fear some sort of cry for publicity.
