Serie A side Black Fortress Barbarians have turned over a new page in their history after club owner Ms Claudia D'Impaciente took out her cheque book and cleared BFB's suffocating debt. Millionaire Ms D'Impaciente apparently decided that she had had enough of waiting for the day when her team would be debt free and in a moment of impatience, and with a stroke of a pen, she paid out £73.5m to the club's creditors. Upon hearing the news supporters of the Castleland club took to the streets to rejoice and thank Ms D'Impaciente for her act of impatience and willingness to fund a lost cause. "She is a great example of what club owners should do" said one delirious Castle minifig interviewed in a local tavern.

Other celebrating minifigs included directors and employees alike at the nation's largest bank, VOL. Bank chief executive Mr Serious Gluttonous expressed his delight that one of his company's biggest potential loan defaulters had come good. "In these difficult times the last thing we need, as with all the lenders out there, is having to write off loans as bad debts. BFB and Ms D'Impaciente should be applauded for their actions. If more club's with large debts could get themselves generous and cost-unconscious minifigs we would all be filthy rich".

In addition to clearing the loans, it is understood that BFB will have close to £30m in the club's coffers and fans anticipate a raid on rival Serie A football clubs once the transfer window reopens on 17th May. Sports correspondent with The Minifigs Times, Mr Armchairus Fanus, believes that BFB could become a top team should this money be spent wisely. "BFB need to improve the quality of their playing staff and look to replace players currently on loan with the club with players fully owned by the club. The team needs to avoid squadering the money and becoming a victim of spiralling wages which has in the past caused top teams like Torino to implode."

The Castleland club, who are currently experiencing a mini-crisis with no wins in their last 6 games, will be hoping the morale boost will rub off on the players and help see the team secure all three points in the meeting with Fiorentina next weekend.
