    Considering the edits were made on a Mobile Device 1 to 4 minutes before you posted it on here… Obviously you.

    Hilarious. I can barely contain my laughter enough to type this post. You should apply for the Edinburgh Fringe.

    For anyone keeping score, at first he quite brilliantly changed our owners to include Gary Lineker, however he couldn't figure out how to get the flag working, so quickly gave up on that idea.

    He then hilariously changed the Net worth to "$1 and a blackies egg" and removed all of the owners with the exception of Neerav. Then with his final edit removed the source of wealth cell entirely for some reason.

    I thought info on Wikipedia was supposed to be a bit dodgy?

    One should always consider information from it as requiring verification from a second independent source, but it's still a brilliant resource when people don't vandalise it.

    It was meant as a joke, ie that the club's valuation was accurate. Actually, forget the 1$...

    Sorry, yeah, I see that now, but my point stands. I have a bee in my bonnet about people editing Wikipedia with utter b*llocks. It was maybe funny for about a week, 20 years ago, but these days it's just vandalism of a valuable public resource.

    Good joke that I missed on first read too. It's been a heavy weekend.

    Agree wholeheartedly.

    Agreed mate, I always donate when they ask. It's a very valuable source of information which is completely independent and reliant only on donations. I get why people might occasionally vandalise it for a laugh but in a world where gobshites like Murdoch and Musk dominate mass media with their odious views it's time to treat it with more respect.
