Darlington Supporters' Trust has backed vice-chairman Raj Singh's proposed takeover of the struggling League Two club.
The Quakers were placed into administration last month and Singh's was the only offer on the table before Monday's original deadline for interested parties to lodge their interest was extended until May.
"Darlington Supporters' Trust is offering its public support to Raj Singh in his bid to take over Darlington Football Club," read a Trust statement.
"We feel he has the interests of the club and its supporters at heart and is looking to give Darlington FC a viable future.
"We have spoken with Mr Singh and are sure his positive but realistic approach will find favour with many supporters.
"He does not promise the earth, but we feel he offers our best chance of a stable future for the club."
