If the Americans land?

[silverfox]

Well it all adds up to me that the Americans are ready to invest in the Blades.

I presume that's what McCabe is working towards.

What do we all think it may bring?

Will it be good for us?

Are we selling out..............cue negative posts!

Will we have free burgers and cheerleaders??

 

[stinkyblade]

yes to cheerleaders

 

[Linz]

yes to cheerleaders

I'm not sure if you remember the last lot we had.....

They were awful beyond belief. The only things the Americans need to bring are plenty of cash and hot hot dogs.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

If the Yanks are of the calibre of the guy at Villa, Randy Lerner (O God, could I cope with the Blades being owned by someone called 'Randy' or 'Chuck' ) then that is fine and dandy! He's been in the background and let a very good manager get on with it!

Chances are slim of finding two reserved Americans (isn't that an oxymoron??) but we can live in hope!

Oh positive note ..........serious investment in the Blades this summer.

One positive thing that may come of it is that we might get a bit more room between the seats to bring them up to the US "6 bum-cheek" standard

Would they try to change anything else ? Like our name for example.

I remember when Liverpool were getting bought out by the yanks and all the Manure fans were suggesting they might change their name to the "Wheeltrim Stealers"

Any ideas (strictly tongue-in-cheek of course) what they could change our name to ?

"Well hello there sports fans, and welcome to the Pontiac Megadrome at Beautiful Crosstown Bram Hall Street. We're here for the crunch tie between Kelvin Blackhawk's Sheefieled RedBlades, and the Blue and White striped Hillsboro Oinkers.
The RedBlades are 18 and 0, and head the league, but the Oinkers are 3 and 16 in one of their least winningest seasons since Kevin Pressman first ate a pie."
"That's right Bob, and with the RedBlades star running back Jimmy-Boy Beattie on a hot streak, you've got to be backing them."
"Yes indeed Harv, and also the form of the Flat-Nosed Tackle Chris "Monster" Morgan, the Oinkers won't be looking like getting the ball in the endzone anytime in the four quarters today. Meanwhile, it's over to Hank Dangleberry, who's talking to RedBlades star quarterback, Michael Tonsil. Hank?"
"Thanks Bob, and hello Mikey. How do you feel about today's soccerball game Mikey?"
"Actually, it's called footba...." (Cut to advert for Budweiser...)

Okay okay...our sports commentators are shite as proof from our world cup commentators. The only good one was from the Women's US team. the rest were crap.

And yes they will probably sell naming rights to the field if they can. (something I despise immensely)

although I would be surprised to hear a journalist say the word oinkers. I kind of like the Chris "Monster" Morgan
