You pick the team - date to be announced soon

It's still difficult to know where to put updates on what's happening but I guess this is more "behind the scenes" type info so here is the best I have for this past week...
80/20 rule is dominating my match reports as the thing came together really quickly but the finer subtleties have taken a while to sort out. Just got player set-ups to do and its all finished.

myFootballClub have announced the takeover of Ebbsfleet United which is a great choice for them - a small progressive club with potential and a very agreeable board. Manager seems a little grey on issues to do with the team but I can understand that. I see one of the Kimble twins is the assistant there which is great - I used to see them play for Cambridge United many years ago in the Beck era.

All of this has focused us a little more and we still want to be the first team to let the members select the team online in the UK. For that reason, we are trying to line up a match where all sign-ups (paid and unpaid) will be able to join in with the decision making.
This won't affect the membership payments to date - it is all "ring fenced" - but will allow everyone to give it a go for free.
This will not only allow us to test things out for the future but to get a lot more exposure than we might otherwise have done.

One aspect that is clearly different between myfc and mybufc is that mybufc will be far more reliant on the efforts of members to have an input to the direction of the system as a whole.
I have to take my hat off to YorkFox, GlassEyes and Goal to name just a few who have all contributed an enormous amount so far for which we we are very grateful!
