BFCST Update: Hex Sponsorship

I can’t see anything with a quick search about the alleged questionable tweets and stuff ( don’t use twitter), I don’t really know owt about crypto currency but do recall a thread on here where some were actively involved in Bitcoin ( don’t even know what that is), I struggled last week with the US dollar so no idea about imaginary money and the Dollar is more or less similar to the quid).

 

So the club's response is that the club have no response and refused to respond to the 4 specific questions.

Nice one Barnsley, stay classy

 

Quoted in Chronicle piece here:

 

Are BFC being paid in sterling or in HEXcoins?

 

My main worry with this is the fact the Hex cultists will get their claws into our supporters, specifically those who live paycheck to paycheck, and persuade them to actually invest in Hex. It's a Ponzi scheme, so they will get some returns to start, and there will be those that can't help lumping their savings, or re-mortgaging their house to "chase the dream". These schemes can really ruin lives.

But it's ok, because Hemmsy thinks it's ok and we might get enough from them to cover the cost of a day's loan of a 13-year-old from Chelsea...

 

The biggest concern for me is the commercial naivety emanating out of BFC. It just seems like one disaster after another and suggests a total lack of acumen.

 

Less of the silly digs but I do hope the club are happy that you are the others are going to ask the club what the deal is and when its cancelled will be more than willing to cover the money yourself wont you.

The fans that travelled last week and will travel north later this week care about winning.

 

Morals are more important than winning football matches. If you disagree with that, there's honestly no hope for you.

 

How much do you think this deal is worth? Clubs at this level rarely get over £250k per season. It seems fair to assume that as we're far from the biggest club in the division that we can't command a price close to that.

If we assume that we get a generous £200k it seems like that the sale of either Styles or Helik and saving in wages would offset things.

Also, no-one seems to know if the money has been paid up front or not. If Hex goes under/dissolves/whatever it's called when a crypto fails and we haven't been paid then we lose that money from the budget anyway. Or maybe they're paying us in Hex? In that case the contract could be worth anything from 50p to billions.

 

That'll be a rug pull.

 

Can someone explain what they’ve done?

 

I’ll read Chron Friday

 

Please don't claim to speak for me, you don't and never will.

I went last week because I wanted to see my team play football at the start of a phase where I was hopeful that the club would once again be primarily about football and not the rest of last season's **** show. Of course I want the team to win but I don't want a club surrounding that team that is frankly morally bankrupt and commercially incompetent.

Leaving aside that we don't know if Hex have actually paid anything to cover yet, I assume by this statement that you will be more than willing to cover the loss of income from any number of current supporters for any number of years who become totally alienated from attending the club by its connection with a company whose associates peddle homophobia and make other statements that are less than appreciative of other protected characteristics.

 

Excellently put. Couldn't have said it better myself.
