    Great read. Many thanks for posting.
    Bring on the PMG Super League!! In all seriousness a pre season tournament would be a great interest generator in my eyes.

    Great read.

    It will be interesting to see whether we can use some of these networks to circumnavigate the post-Brexit visa rules.

    For example I think playing in Europe league gives players a better chance of getting a work permit under the new rules. So if Oostende can make it then I wonder whether we'll see players being filtered through them to us.

    Thanks for posting Hicksy, a really good read.

    Was interesting about them wanting to own Wigan, I didn’t think they were allowed to own more than one club in England or indeed any country?

    I think they may have their facts a bit mixed up on that one. GG was reported to be fronting a take-over bid, but I don't think it was ever the case thet Conway/Lee that wanted to buy them...

    Important question though, in the big scheme of things, are Barnsley the number 1 club in the PMG set up??

    Why do you assume there is a hierarchy?
