Nature Strike Dispute Settled
The French owners of Nature Strike have been fined over $1 billion and Natrue Strike is due to be transfered to its new Spanish owners by April 27th. This decision came shortley after Nature Strike captain, Typhoon, made a public statement criticising the French owners. Iceland withdrew their appeal shortly after the deal was confirmed in the early hours of April 24th.
Nature Strike Dispute gets Bigger/Typhoon Hits Out at France
On the 18th of April 2008 the owners of Nature Strike, France, were made an offer for the club by Spain, of $2 billion. France accepted this, but later canceled it and demanded more. Spain were furious and brought the matter into court. Both countries are still disputing over who should have it and now Iceland has declared interest in Nature Strike.
Typhoon, Nature Strike's captain, issued this statement:
"All I wish is that the countries get this settled so we can concentrate on the Worm Cup more, instead of having to be subject to this dispute. I just can't believe that France canceled the deal and plunged us into this disarray. The should have agreed the deal at first instead of having to go through all this."
It's now up to the countries and the law to decide if Spain gets Nature Strike and France gets its £2 billion or the deal falls through.
Name Captain Delighted with Qualification
Name's captain is said to be absolutely delighted with the way the team played in the qualifications and qualified for the Worm Cup. He issued this statement:
"I'm just stunned. It's a dream come true! Our rankings will be shooting up and it's been worth it."
The Chilean team will be facing some more popular teams and are said to be ready for a big fight. They don't expect to win, but they do want to enjoy the moment, while they can.
