A spokesman for the fast growing Church of Satan said they are proceeding to put in an offer in for the Manchester Red Devils.
'It is a good fit for our business plan of taking over the Earth in Satan's name' - he said. Fans will be cheering Satan.
We are multi - denominational - no Players have to change their Religion - but they will have to tolerate the religion of the new owners.
It's no different than having a Jewish or Muslim owner.
They will have to wear little red Horns along with their new uniforms - but that is a minor inconvenience. Satan will provide hot Massage and Ball girls.
We also do a pre - play Prayer of Success and Cursing of the other Team - but many Coaches are already doing that.
And there is a brief Ritual of killing a chicken on the field.
(The Stonehenge people did something similar - or worse.)
Other than that - the usual nasty unsportsmanlike moves on the field will go on as usual. (Those moves are very Pro - Satan by the way. )
