I was given some magic beans for my birthday. Any chance Randy would do a swap with me?

I would say plant the beans, grow the beanstalk and go and get the golden egg shitting hen, but I think using profits from said eggs would contravene UEFA's FFP rules.

EUFA rules on golden eggs only apply if you sell them in order to poach players.

True, Brian, but goals count double in the second egg.

Surely you'd poach the egg - not the players?

I hope that when the sale does go through the first two players purchased will be Benedict McCarthy and Matt Hollandaise.

The only players exempted by EUFA from the rule about not paying for players with eggs are those of West Bromwich Albumen but only white ones.
