The Jags are looking to swell their transfer budget by getting fans to put £100 into the club each month as part of a financial overhaul.

But Cowan insists it will only be the well-heeled supporters who'll be targeted.

He said: "We're working very hard to ensure the long-term future of the club. We haven't finalised the playing budget but we know there's not a pot of gold in the First Division."We'll make as much money as possible available to the manager and we've just launched a new scheme available to supporters which we will call a 'Players Fund'.

"We'll be inviting supporters to donate £100 per month to be put into a fund which will allow us to sign players. If it's a success there could be more funds available to the manager.
