Island Entrepeneur Keeping Football Team Afloat With Cash Injections

Trevor Hemmings Pays Preston North Ends Wages

Island based entrepreneur Trevor Hemmings has been identified as the only person keeping football club Preston North End financially afloat.

The leisure tycoon has a house in the North of the Island and is a major shareholder in the club.

He recently had to pay the players wages of the debt wracked club, totalling over half a million pounds.

The latest handout brings his total investment in the Championship club to just under £14 million.

Things aren’t looking good for the club who were recently served a winding up order for failure of paying certain liabilities.
