It would yes. Clearly Barcelona are sort of fans owned, but with their numbers and a global profile (coupled with the fact that they are essentially a Catalan national side) they can be very prolific. Our fans support is enough to make us competitive at National League Level , hence every season we start off with a hope of the play offs. But at any level above this , our limited number of fans makes fans ownership increasingly likely to fail. Hence the point I have been making (accurately and with much personal abuse) for 6 years now....

Fans ownership under a good and lucky manager may get us up BUT IN THE LONG RUN FANS OWNERSHIP WILL FAIL.
