Former Fleetwood Chairman Jailed For 13 Years

Former Fleetwood Town owner Andy Pilley has been jailed for 13 years.

Pilley mis-sold gas and electricity contracts and posted fake customer comments on websites.

He resigned as chairman and club director of the League One side last month.

Pilling was appointed chairman of the club in 2004 even though he had spent four months in prison in 1998.

In a statement after the hearing Fleetwood Town said: "The club would like to reiterate convictions are against individuals and not Fleetwood Town FC, or any of the businesses associated with them, and will continue to operate as normal."

Hereford played at Fleetwood in the FA Cup in December 2017.
