In a statement on their website, the Towners said: "Yesterday another huge milestone as chairman Paul Reed and vice chairman Paul Millington signed a 99 year lease, which will secure a home for the country's first ever supporters run and owned senior football club and a place where we hope to welcome our community to be part of our continued aspirations of greater success."
