This one
Firstly, many thanks to each of you for applying to invest in the club. Your support is so important to us all.

We have had a great first week of applications and they are continuing to flow in.

For those of you who have “signed up” already, we will be asking for funds and issuing shares next week and I thought I would give you the heads up. Hopefully bank transfer will work for most or all of you.

Thanks again and have a great weekend

Yes. I'm assuming that's the start of the setup.

Shouldn't it be from John M ???
Are you sure that email didn't originate from Nigeria ???
Or have they found a new role for Johnny Thompson ??

Yes I noticed the T, I’m letting PT, pay first, just to confirm it’s the real thing.

Paid my monies this afternoon.
Just to let you all know that when I entered Spirit of 1873 and the account numbers, I received an onscreen warning that the account numbers didn’t entirely match the account name, Wakefield Trinity Wildcats. Anyway, I continued by pressing to accept tabs, and the payment was accepted. I have emailed the club and advised them just in case someone else is a bit unsure.

I see a few people have replied to the email to ask if the link and details can be added to the website to give them more confidence than an email.

Dropped some stuff off at the club this morning. Asked about how the share offer was going and was told JM was buzzing before he went on holiday (he’s back Boxing Day I believe). When an accountant is ‘buzzing’ you know things are going well, as in my experience they rarely ‘buzz’. I don’t know the full number of applications for members shares, but I do know the online ones (only the numbers, not names or amounts) and they are impressive enough. Assuming the shop/club has done similar numbers then I’d say the share issue has been a massive success, JUST MY OPINION. When JM asked me my opinion about the idea I was all for it, but to be honest I feared only a modest take up. I understand why Trinity fans are jaded and wary of these kinds of offers, I suppose it shows just how much MC and JM and the rest have re-established trust with the fan base. I think we’ve done way better than I expected, so well done all. Unless JM has sold some owner shares, I have nothing to do with that, then it won’t be enough to rebuild the West terrace. However it will IMHO be enough to give us a comfortable buffer for the next few seasons as the East stand kicks in, again just my opinion. Hopefully allowing us to sign players as and when we need them this season and next, and we probably will need too. Without the fans buying into this idea we’d have struggled this season IMHO, now we are in a far better place. If you haven’t already bought them, now's the time before some of the incentives are lost. I feel I can honestly say that unlike the 'buy a brick' or 'Save Nigel Wright fund', this one really is making a difference. Mainly because the amount raised is sizeable, rather than a drop in the ocean, so if you can let’s make it bigger still. Below is the online link, just in case you’ve found a spare £500 behind the sofa. https://form.jotform.com/223193598991371
