Portsmouth supporters- even with their substantial fan base- had to go cap in hand to Disney.

Agree with some of your points but not sure that’s an accurate representation – I think a more balanced view is that the Disney bloke (Eisner?) made an offer and the attraction of being a billionnaire’s plaything won out over the security & pride of fan ownership. A shame.

York have also recently sold out, in this case with the majority owners taking a 51% stake. 49% would have perhaps been the ideal option there for the club but not for the new majority owners.

I don’t know about Scarborough but I suspect Darlo are hamstrung by their stadium issues.
