    I've no idea, tbh, it was at the end of a long night, he just said he'd got the job for Thorp Arch but the ground expansion had gone to another company that specialises in that type of work. He did think they may be bought in, in an advisory role and perhaps to recommend companies for certain jobs in the build process. I do seem to remember being told the west will be done first, mirroring the east stand, then they will be linked to the north, the south will be done last, not sure if that was him or someone else that said it though.

    Feed us with what. They can’t put together a team capable of finishing writhing 20 points of Celtic. Why would we want their rubbish

    Maybe we’ll loan out some of our better academy players to them to prepare them for first team football.

    Perhaps excessive but maybe they think it's the only way to shift Bamford on ;)

    You could be on to something there Gessa.

    Even Barndoor would score against the likes of St Johnstone.

    Ok maybe not <confused>

    No we wouldn’t. It would be more of a level playing field. Clubs would need to rely on other income generated, and the responsibly-run clubs (as Leeds now seem to be) would rise to the top.

    English league wouldn’t be able to attract foreign talent anymore. Only reason they do is th exorbitant wages

    Maybe they’ll be the club we send the garbage to, £8m for Bamford, £12m for Harrison will do for starters
