    Oooh you beat me to it by 4 minutes... Let's hope it is Virgin rather than SD.

    If this happens, hopefully Mr Branson will put in a cheeky bid for the club whilst he is at it!

    Don't see myself, Virgin have a lot of money tied up in F1 to be sponsoring us. Probably why already told the club that it was likely to happen, it would explain why Lambiarse is bleating on about having to find a new sponsor.

    This will be why the Northern Rock sponsorship ended early,to force this sale through. Virgin aren't interested in sponsoring us!!

    Well it should be Virgin Money on our shirts rather than just Virgin, but I think we'll get a completely different sponsor anyway.

    Don't see how Virgin would be worse than Sports Direct.
