AFC Wimbledon’s fan ownership group called off a vote on a proposed investment after Sloane Street Capital withdrew. The Dons Trust said Sunday that the investor cited a change in priorities.
The trust withdrew its resolution and canceled an extraordinary meeting set for Tuesday. The investor group that includes former England defender Ryan Bertrand told the trust it intends to seek new funding and return with a proposal on the same terms.
The trust said any future proposal would be subject to due diligence and a member vote. Its board is due to take questions at its annual meeting Dec. 14.
