I personally think it's wrong mainly because fans have been donating thousands of pounds to the SOS fund and not getting anything in return. If the club would have done something like this 6 weeks ago then I think it could've enticed them into investing money into the club via shares and this coupled with the ASSF offer would've meant the club could be run by the fans. It seems to me that the club have just been waiting for people to put as much into the SOS so that the directors have less to put in themselves. I also think the price of £250 is very unrealistic in the current credit crunch, there will be some people that will take it up but what happens if the club gets wound up? The shares will be worth nothing and the fans will be out of pocket.
