anothershare offer

Has anybody heard any of the rumours that are circulating that there might be another share issue. I have it on good authority that the board are willing to stump up the money for both out of present funds but because of the financial climate we are in that there will have to be a share issue to help out.
i for one are willing to put my money in after i have said on numorous occasions that we must try and sign hucks and i am sure a lot of other people would too but i understand if people dont. we have all ready put a fair amount in, i contributed a £1000 not a lot but enough when you have lots of bills to pay. it would be nice if local companies contributed to the fund as like some else poasted not long ago that there is a feel good factor around the place and people are buzzing about possible promotion research suggests that a good football team helps out the workers and the company makes more money (research done by myself asking 2 people and they both agreed so thats 100% te he) even if hucks doesn''t do it week in week out we still expect to conjure up some magic and it excites you when he gets the ball, as for crouch i think he is a top class pro willing to give his all to the cause. for arguments sake we could buy them both and at the end of the season you could quite easily sell them if the dreaded happens and we don''t get promoted it''s a risk but far as i am concerned a viable one.
we are sitting 2nd in the table looking good so there is no reason why we can''t be still up there come may!!!!! but only if we invest in hucks or crouch or even look for more loanees.
but least the board are trying to be positive so come on fans lets help the club out (again)

I suppose the main problem with the share issue is whether enough people simply have the money to keep buying shares. The last issue wasn''t that long ago, and I''m not convinced that many would be prepared to keep putting money in. Only fans would want to buy shares really, and we already spend a lot of money each year supporting the team (be it season tickets, merchandise etc) so I think its a bit much to ask the fans to keep putting extra money in every other year or so. Unless the club could guarantee getting "x" amount back then they simply could not go ahead and spend the money with the faint hope that another share issue would cover it. I would be very surprised if this were to happen. Clearly the only way the club could afford to keep these players is if they found some additional sources of revenue. But I don''t think another share issue would really work I''m afraid.

This is my own experience;
Before the last share issue I had already purchased some Norwich shares, so, when that share offer was made I looked long and hard at what I, personally would gain from it. The answer was nothing, so I kept the money in my pocket.
unless somebody is going to buy a controlling interest in the club, I cannot see many people increasing their share holding.

Can I take that back ?
A share offer for the players, I will invest in !
