    Closest we'll ever get to a corporate takeover is Greggs. Imagine how awesome the catering would be though..

    considering Leeds fans aversion to anything to do with red (remember how they kicked off about the shirt sponsorship with the betting firm), then calling them Red Bull Leeds would be funny

    I hate to hear about any potential investment in our rivals at Leeds or Sheffield.
    If any of this does come off there will be a negative impact at Barnsley.

    Its going to be interesting to watch what happens at Hillsboro in the close season with their new owner.
    Fingers crossed they don't splash the cash and go for promotion.

    They've still got FFP to deal with, no reason why they would be able to spend significantly more than they do already.

    Super rich owners are pointless if ffp actually does something but "big" clubs seem to get away with this sort of stuff
