Think the Board are missing an opportunity here...given the enthusiasm for McCoy's hobbit style folderol...they should hold Treasure Hunt type events, where clues lead to the name of player and hotel location of the signing. Charge a sizeable entry fee, and offer a winning prize of an evening of hospitality with Lee Power, and I'm sure there'd be a decent take up from on here.
I'm now starting to see disturbing parallels between this suggestion and the story of the Wizard of Oz. In which the loyal fan base get dragged along on some mystical journey on the promise of one day meeting Lee Power. On their travels they meet the Tinpot man and and Jed the cuddly lion ... |

Would there be a helicopter and a jump suit included? and when you got it wrong, would a bunch of know it all's nod in a patronising knowing way while pointing to page in an obscure local book that clearly had the answer for all to see.
... or ... have teams made up from Sam's forum categories performing ridiculous and slightly dangerous tasks to get the clues etc. to receive the player's weight in gold coins. And it could be called Fort Bopard. |

This could be the first time in the history of internet football forums that the use of the word folderol has ever been used. Nice. |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Fort Bopard I see JFW as just edging Callum in drag for the Anneka Rice role, and Joteddy in the Win gcey Willis role. In Bopard the Melinda Messenger role could be played by Melinda Messenger |

I misread the name too at first. I know something's gotta give but if replacing the departed with players that old is as good as it gets, then a lot of our fans are going to need anger management.
I can't imagine playing for Swindon was ever on his bucket list. |

Couple of Spurs fans reckon they've heard a rumour that Levy will "sell" all these players that we want from them with a 1p buy back clause to essentially get around the amount of loans from a club you can have.
