Are we playing bingo before each game 😳
Obviously this is massive for the club, but this could be genuinely huge for the city.

The regeneration of that land and extension of the city out from Curzon Street is a massive story and opportunity.
Hopefully they can bulldoze Dale End and the Oasis Market too.

Would think 50 odd acres of land close to a city centre is a much better way to spend £50 Million than on a premier league centre forward. Who may or may not cut the mustard. Just shows how football at the top level has lost touch with reality.
That Tory div quoted is Villa, no surprise
It seems Knightead have read the room correctly and seen that the people assigned to leading what's left of the council are highly motivated sellers and even the vile fans within the council have been forced to vote for this deal even though they otherwise might not have if they hadn't bankrupted themselves. That's actually quite funny and something worth pointing out to vilers around you.
