One Direction star takes over Doncaster Rovers

One Direction star Louis Tomlinson could become what Elton John was to Watford with his takeover of Doncaster Rovers.  He grew up in the town and has turned out for the club’s reserves.  Each of the members of the band is estimated to be worth £14m.

Tomlinson has started a crowdfunding scheme which will give fans a chance to contribute financially, but also give them tiered rewards and an opportunity to become more involved in the club.  To start the scheme off, the Tomlinson Ryan Trust has donated a six figure sum.
