Orchard Community Sports Ltd own Slough Town FC only this company can sell the club??
Taking that on board, I looked up Orchard Community Sports Ltd on Companies House. Two of the people mentioned in the clubs statement (here) – Mike Lightfoot and Kay Lathey – are listed as Directors of Orchard Community Sports Ltd. So this sounds right.
