I have been over in Sheffield today on business and found myself talking to one of the directors of Sheffield Wednesday F.C who informs me that talks have taken place between the Football Club and the Squealers as regarding a buy out of George Dodds the Squealers owner. By all accounts if this deal takes place the Squealers will have the biggest budget of all the superleague teams and a new purpose built Arena to seat up to 15,000 people. Typical, we just start to think that their era is over then these plans appear. It seems like Sheffield Wednesday are very keen to expand along the same lines of the Newcastle Empire and they see the squealers as the first stepping stone. Looks like we could be in for a right old battle with them for the next few years. Any comments ?????
