    Certainly ones from abroad who will have seen it on their news and wouldn't have heard of us before...

    Could be a bigger win than we even first thought.

    Doubt it on the basis of one game.

    If they continue somehow to play like that then maybe.

    But I get the feeling we're building here and trying to keep the squad together.

    We need less players not more

    The squad is too big as it is.

    Same could be said for your opening comment. Us doing well in one game, I don't think will attract a better quality of player from abroad, who wouldn't have heard of us until yesterday.

    B*ll*cks

    My point is that people have now heard of the club in foreign countries, which is bound to raise the profile and stature of the club in those countries.

    If I was a pro looking to move abroad, a club that I'd seen pull off a famous result against one of the world's biggest teams would be more attractive than one I'd never heard of.

    Totally agree, our profile has been raised massively. Hope the club is sufficiently aware to take advantage of it.

    Should at least prevent another Leon Constantine! :D </p>

    Oh but Dreamboy knows best, it hasn't altered anything.

    Obviously. (blagger)
