"I've created a vehicle that will pool fans' opinions, passion and wealth and turn fantasy football into reality," declared its Fulham-supporting creator Will Brooks, adjusting his incredibly thick spectacles. Nasty Leeds currently top the poll of prospective purchases, followed by Cambridge United and Accrington Stanley.The BBC has more here.
