    So, Sunderland is getting "an infusion of cash" from a hedge fund manager -- that is, a guy who shuffles "potential money" for a living. I'm sure they'll benefit just as much as West Ham did from the ownership of their Icelandic mortgage shuffler.

    Ah, capitalism. I remember it well.

    Fuckin' Texas. Just another reason to dislike Sunderland. (No offense, Don. :D )
