Pompey have issued another plea for investment from people who wants shares in the club - as another application deadline looms.

Supporters wanting to invest via equity in the club have until July 31 to do so, while those wishing to become presidents need to invest a minimum of £50,000 in club shares.

The Pompey Supporters' Trust are running a campaign to get fans to invest from £1,000-£20,000 in community shares. Two events at Fratton Park raised more than £50,000 this way, but fans can still invest. Contact info@pompeytrust.com for more details.

Pompey chief executive Mark Catlin told the Pompey website: 'We are a club owned by the fans for the fans and have a fantastic mix of supporters owning shares in the club.

'Our existing presidents have been a valuable source of opinion and assistance during this season and I look forward to working with them and any new presidents that may choose to come on board before the deadline on the current share scheme ends in July.'

Catlin added: 'In recent weeks we have launched our fanfunding scheme with Tifosy.com to raise funds for two new pitches for the Pompey academy and we also now have our very own Pompey Lottery which is growing rapidly.

'Fans can take part in these schemes from as little as £2 per week for the lottery and just £10 to donate towards the fanfunding campaign, so everyone can play their part in investing in the club's future.'
