Article in the Sun today saying Billionaire Les Hutchison is the mystery man behind Motherwell's fans takeover.

I met this guy a year ago as we waited in the queue to get in to the Rangers AGM.

Seemed a sound guy, wonder if there's a chance he will get on the Rangers merry go round.

Looks like he´s lending them the money?

"Retired businessman Les Hutchison is close to concluding a deal to help fund a fans' takeover at Motherwell.

Supporters group the Well Society has been trying to raise money to buy former chairman John Boyle's 70% shareholding.

The organisation said in November that it had raised £500,000 and was targeting a further £1m in loans. "

Maybe the guy has a load of crash test dummies or mannequins he needs rid of?

Maybe he's an investor in this lot ;)

Pride, passion, proxies! The creators hope the robots can lead chants by real fans too

A struggling Korean baseball team have invented a novel way to improve atmosphere at their matches - by bringing in a crowd of robot fans.

Hanwha Eagles supporters not able to get to the stadium can control the robot over the internet.

The bots can cheer, chant and perform a Mexican wave - but presumably not invade the pitch.
