"Willian gave me a hug once, and it was lovely."
It was another very successful meeting in the world of Footballland. We are proud to announce FIVE new rides:
- Special guests, comedy double act Larry & Paul, pitched the Elland Roadacoaster, in which guests can experience exactly what it's like to be a Leeds United fan. Quite a violent ride, even by Footballland standards, this coaster claims to be the longest in the world, lasting 15 years and 2 1/2 minutes.
- Our patrons Richard Beecham and Dan Rennie pitch The Grimsby Town Waterslide, charting the club's precipice-like downfall in the mid noughties.
- Our patron Phil Lee brings us 'A Cup of Caribou,' a children's ride designed to improve the image of the Carabao Cup.
- Mark unveils his new creation, Mourinho Laundrinho, the world's first wicker basket rollercoaster.
- And Anthony proposes a new way of ferrying guests around the park, with his fleet of Holding Midfielders.
But sad news, as Ryan our intern has found a problem with Footballland's stadium, The Squeaky Bumtime Arena.
We hope you enjoy this episode, and please don't stop sending us your ideas.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
