A Bolton Wanderers supporter has had enough of the club being unable to afford players, and has taken to the internet to raise funds in quite an unorthodox fashion.

Supporter Sam James, @samjames1401, has created a 'gofundme' in order to create a "Bring Adam Le Fondre Home" fund.

The total currently stands at £205 after only being live for an hour, quite a way off the £500k target, which I doubt would be enough anyway - but there's no harm in trying!

The kickstarter has been met with a mixed reaction from the BWFC Twitter community, with some calling it an embarrassment with others loving the tenacity.

This man seemed quite impressed though:

:) And I'll give them £50 to help Le Fondre out of the club as well! ;)

So if they don't hit £500k, the money goes to charity eh? I wonder if that charity is called Ferrari4SamJames or something similar?

Nobody's mocking the Bolton fans, just merely having a joke at some of our own players's expenses!

Pretty pathetic really, asking the man in the street to stump up money to bring in a guy probably going to be on £20k a week, the worlds gone mad :lol: :lol:

When I read the strap line I thought we were having a whip round to buy the CARDIFF CITY media player, Richard Shepard must be raking it in!
