Yesterday it was 500 million, today the adver are reporting
"With a fourth unnamed businessman also part of the consortium, Town's backers are worth approaching £1billion as the County Ground outfit finally look forward to a sounder financial future"

Mr Fitton has said all along that there were 4 members of the consortium and that the new member is a non director role but would join the board possibly in the future.

So we must continue to guess at this other member for a while!

I'm not getting too excited. We've seen what happens when you throw money at a club. Well, when you throw it at STFC. And there's no guarantee we're going to be getting any of that money.

Nice to know we're owned by people who are minted though I must say!

According to other threads it is Richard Backhouse (none the wiser)!

Yes that's what i thought axs. Just a board memeber rather than a shareholder/investor who has cash. Maybe i'm wrong though.
