On Saturday 6th May fans from across the country will be descending on the seaside town to offer their solidarity to supporters of Blackpool, Leyton Orient and many other clubs with problematic owners. FSF Malcolm Clarke said: “Owners are the temporary guardians of a football club’s heritage – we are still, unfortunately, in the position where a handful of club owners are not fit to be guardians of that heritage.”
