Hobbs describes it as Leicester having "slight interest."

I must say I'm worried about our current squad, it reminds of the 11/12 season when it was said that Man Utd lost the PL to Man City because they failed to add to their squad that season whereas Man City had made some decent signings that just clinched it.
We need to add to the current squad - especially in certain positions.
Perhaps we might see some movement with Beckford gone, although it wouldn't surprise me if we don't.

I'd settle for second on goal difference.

That's what is wrong with football these days. Yes it'd be good to be in Europe, but unless you're top you're not a winner. I don't see us finishing above the big 3 soon though...

Maybe something our Trust could look at doing with the money they have squirrelled away

Exeter's Supporters' Trust does something similar in the form of their 1931 fund. It's currently paying the wages of former City man Elliott Chamberlain.

They are certainly more open about their membership and finances than ours

There's even a list of names of the people who pay into it.

The Foxes Trust ran a syndicate to sponsor a player who had come through the Academy for several seasons, we also listed syndicate members, see this link which gives details of the players sponsored http://foxestrust.co.uk/player-sponsorship however each syndicate member paid £20 each in total
The syndicate ceased when the clubs commercial department changed the sponsorships available
Recently the Foxestalk message board tried to generate a scheme to sponsor Matty James and had to drop it due to lack of backing.
If posters on here indicate they would match the Exeter scheme and contribute £19/month each, and enough indicate an interest by the end of July, then putting forward a scheme to club would be discussed at the next Trust board meeting
