THE new owners of Mansfield Town FC have come out and publicly backed fans group Stags Fans United (SFU).

The recently formed SFU - a merger of the club's four main supporters groups the SSA, TM, SFFC and OSSC - aims to raise upto 250,000 to invest in the Stags, in return for a say in the running of the club.

It would like a seat on the board of directors and the chance to buy further shares in the club.

In a statement issued on Tuesday lunchtime the club said:

"We fully support the fundraising activities of Stags Fans United (SFU) and recognise they have raised over 40,000 so far, which we would welcome to be invested in the club.

"In return for this committment and as a sign of good faith we intend to work with, engage with and embrace the involvement of all supporters of Mansfield Town Football Club.

"It is our intention to appoint a supporter-director very soon.

"We also intend to speak with SFU with regards to purchasing additional shares in Mansfield Town Football Club.

"We encourage those supporters who have held back from supporting the SFU to now consider donating to the Trust so that the SFU can further invest in Mansfield Town Football Club."
