Great news, although the crowdfunding for community shares is going to be a tough ask I fear. Start saving up folks...
Its gonna be time for many fans to put their money where their mouth is as its a once in a clubs history sort of opportunity.

How much are they asking for? It's been a while, and I've forgotten.

Great News!!!!!!!!!
(in principle)
I would have been more inclined to regard it as great news if it was 100% Trust. There's a massive risk here.... OK it could work out well, or it could lead to the demise of the club.

What happens if the trust can't fund their half? I think I read somewhere that they already have somebody to step in and fund it regardless, is that right?

I don’t think so, the Trust knew what they were entering so let’s be positive. What about that money that was left to the club? Surely a perfect scenario?

Would the Trust get this far down the road just hoping they could fund it? And would Power not ask for some assurances they had adequate funds? So, is the price £2.2m for the entire CG or is that just the half each side must stump up?

OK.... in simple terms that an ordinary fella can understand, explain to me how if the Trust can't raise the funds, how the CG falling into Power's hands would be good for the club?
