Waterford Chairman Andy Pilley will be sentenced on July 3 for the fraud charges he was found guilty of last Friday in an English court in relation to allegations of mis-selling energy supplies.
The 52-year-old, whose interest in football clubs began by bankrolling Fleetwood Town’s rise from the lower reaches of the Conference to League One, appeared before Preston Crown Court on Tuesday for a pre-sentence hearing.
