This probably won't mean much to you guys across the pond apart from a few ex UK guys but in 12 minutes Stoke City FC, my home town football team will be promoted to the Premier League! This will be great for the area.



edit: And they're up!!!!!!!!

We're in the money, we're in the money!

Promotion to England's Premier League is worth at least ?60m and is the biggest financial boost a football club can receive, analysts Deloitte say.

The Championship teams who win a Premier League place get ?30m from TV rights, plus ?5m from extra sponsorship and merchandising deals each season.

Even those who are relegated after one season get ?24m over the next two years, taking the total to about ?60m.

Now enjoy your five minutes of glory and get ready for Premier League play..........

Congrats Juneau!!!
