Supporters Phil and Ashley Kirk have recently invested £1M into the club which was fan-owned.

"The intention is not to take over the club," said Phil.

"I would really like to keep the club owned by the fans but it is pretty clear the trust can’t support the finances of the club at the moment and what Ash and I would like to do along with the rest of the board is to get it to a position where it is sustainable."
