Hmm. If the supporters trust can get the money together to buy the club this seems to be moving in the opposite direction to what has happened at Pompey. Different circumstances as Pompey were facing going out of business when the supporters trust bought the club. A few years later it became clear that any sustained success would require the sort of investment that the trust couldn't support on it's own.
I supported the trust ownership (both philosophically and financially) and was disappointed when the club was sold but it was clear that a supporter owned club would find it difficult to more than survive in the football league in the current environment.
