There’s something about football. Chesterfield are owned by a Community Trust which received a £10 million loan from Mr Allen and just received a £1 million investment from the Kirk brothers. So at least £11 million in debt. So partly fan owned but not necessarily a successful model for the future. So I would go with private investors for the Boro they might be more careful with their own money - but I doubt it. Certainly there should be the opportunity to buy shares.

Chester City Supporters Society Ltd., are a Community Benefit Society operating under the name of Chester Football Club & are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

They are a fan-owned club & have no major shareholders.

Being a Regulated Society, that is in accordance with Option 5 of the FA's guidance on Club Structure.

There are several different models a supporters owned club can adopt. Andy explained, but it went over my head.

The FA's Option 5 in their guidance on Club Structure, for becoming a Regulated Society, seems popular.

Chester City Supporters Society Ltd.

Scarborough Athletic FC Society Ltd.

Hinckley AFC are a Mutual Benefit Society.
