RE: plough What??!?!?!?! You having a laugh? We talking about the Plough in West Melton? The same one that went unbeaten on their way to the 3rd division title, then won the 2nd and 1st, before promotion to the premiership? Ok, we got relegated straight away, but we had alot of players out this season!!
I'm sure that you're well intentioned, but this kind of thing is always a bad idea (as Dragon Tyke recently discovered). You either have a rumour or don't, and you either want to share it or you don't. There is no half way house. Besides, although you may have been given info in good faith - it's a load of B*ll*cks because clubs aren't allowed to invest in each other.
There are rules agaisnt it, exactly as you say Never let the facts get in the way of a goood rumour though
