In response to the growing concern from fans regarding the way the club is being run, I'm asking one question, would fan ownership at Fife ever be feasible?
I'm fed up of the stale product on and off the ice with an owner who treats the club/rink as his personal family jewels who has allowed the club to sink to such depths with seemingly little or no interest in righting the ship.
It's almost verging on sabotage by the owners, if they have lost interest or don't want to invest in the club then sell it to those that will. Attendances are dwindling down to three-figures and will only get worse if things continue.
We have a coach who is a hell of a nice guy, but let's be honest should have been emptied long ago, but it seems like he has the job for as long as he wants it, purely through tenure and location, also known as the cheap and easy option.
I cannot fault the work that the volunteers do, but the fact that the club practically relies on this goodwill and looks amateur in the process is not a good look. You've only got to look just up the road in Dundee as to how slick and professional their PR and social media is, it's not difficult, just pay someone that's qualified to do it professionally.
I have a relative that is a shareholder in the rink and is also a long-time season ticket holder, he thinks that TD is doing a decent job and that simply making the play-offs is our level and anything over and above that is performing miracles. It shows you the mentality you are up against at boardroom level.
The point of this post was to gauge opinion on potential fan ownership or to see others input into how things are going. I know I'm far from the only disgruntled supporter.

We are the oldest club is Britain, we have the most trophies and we're once the greatest club in this land. Now we are a laughing stock, and the the boardroom are saying that is utterly shocking and shoes they have no ambition do why are they even on the league

I'd get behind anything that could be done to help change things. I dunno how to go about it tho, came up against a wall previously.
But all ears for any other suggestions, happy to help with any ideas going forward.
