I’ve brought out my dalek picture again in response to finding MyFootballClub via Tom Guariello. Tom explains:

To become a member, a visitor pays £35 (about $70). Membership privileges include the right to own one share of a British Premiereship League football team. So far, the site has 50,000 registered visitors and over 39,000 members, having collected £1,375,000. Oh, and them members also get to vote on which team they’ll bid on. So far, the top three are Leeds United, Nottingham Forest and Cambridge United.

Sounds fun, and a bit like the French WebFootballClub (which I blogged here).
