Please do not quote me or berate me if this turns out to be a load of bllocks.

I have heard today that a certain Mr Richard Branson is buying Sheffield FC and plans to invest heavily in the club.

Anyone else heard anything about this?

Not heard a thing and is probably a load of tosh but man that would be amazing. :thumsbup:

Since sheffield fc play in dronfield it could be great for business there if it happens but i am sceptical, why doesn't he buy a league team they would have more chance of champions league football.

It would take a decade for sheff fc to make the premiership

But 10 yrs worth of profits, plus its a good publicity stunt, so it be worth it for him?

Just done a bit of digging and it turns out Branson already hasconnections with the club. Honourary member or something.
