I once got a thumbs down for identifying Steve Buscemi in 30 Rock. Beat that!!

Yes he gave my son his gloves at the end of the game. We kept them in case he developed into an international superstar but sadly that hasn’t turned out to be the case!
Re: Now the club are trying to annoy our Legends
Too soon for "it's just business" and "we'll never know what really happened anyway" comments?
Re: Now the club are trying to annoy our Legends
When I was involved with the Lounge in its previous incarnation we managed to host sponsor events (including product demonstrations) also live tv studio punditry all whilst still maintaining the Lounge facility for those paying guests - indeed the concurrent events probably enhanced the experience. As indeed did visits from Rob and Pete with a bit of glad handing and chat. Real shame that atmosphere of ‘we’ has now been replaced by ‘us & them’.

Maybe Danuard are conducting interviews in there? Or turning it into a data centre?
Re: Rumour Mill
There's got to be a number we'd be mad not to sell at.
No idea how close that is but 6m is huge!
Not sure what our record sale is but has to include a sell on, maybe Ibe at about 1.5m?
Re: Rumour Mill
Personally I think the loss of Richard Kone, in this transfer window, would be more disruptive than the loss of Bloomfield.
Even if we did achieve a transfer fee in excess of £5M, which is the figure I've seen quoted, where is the replacement ready to hit the ground and start scoring goals this season?
Promotion - although by no means guaranteed if Kone stays - is potentially worth much more than £5M.
For me it's a no brainer that the club stick to their guns and continue to knock back these bids. However, it must be having some effect on Kone so let's hope he is being well mentored.
