And our ITK on here was correct. We are back to a gambling sponsor next season (it wasn't confirmed at the SCG I should add).

People were trying to get it out of them but no joy.

David Michael's asked whether it was a sponsor which could go on a children's shirt and Keith Wyness just said 'Is it animal, vegetable or mineral?' As it really was like it had turned into a game of 20 questions.

We'll know soon enough.

'Is it animal, vegetable or mineral?' That comes across as being both immature and smug ..... is that how he operates or am I reading something that isn't there?

It wasn't mentioned at the meeting but I imagine the events in Manchester over the summer have put paid to DLBIA making a re-appearance next season. My personal view is that the city of Manchester and firmly reclaimed it.

Good - that was also cringeworthily shite!

Really? It shouldn't. We were all laughing about our increasingly convoluted ways of trying to get the information out of them and it was his way of both joining the joke and shutting it down. It saved him from getting arsey - it was a friendly way of saying 'enough lads - I'm not tellling'. It didn't feel either immature or smug. They have a launch this weekend - he was very keen to not leek anything.

Is that a clue at the end? So we're sponsored by a vegetable, or a Welsh gaming company.

Move over Sherlock Holmes!

Thanks for explaining Amfy - I am at an extremely cynical stage of my life !
