Own the club, pick the team – UPDATE

http://www.cartoonstock.com/lowres/rth0386l.jpg

Back in June we wrote about a clever idea that applied the wisdom of crowds idea to a football club. To recap, the idea is that thousands of football fans band together and buy a football club, each person is part owner of the club. Using the internet each person will be able to vote for team selection, formation, substitutions and discuss tactics and player transfers.

The update is that MyFootballClub has actually bought a conference team – Ebbsfleet United. It’s going to be fascinating to see how the idea actually works in practice.
