THE DAILY PROPHETLONDON -- ELEVENTH HOUR TRADES BRING SURPRISES
It has long been a tradition that there are to be no player trades in the last week before the opening matches of the British and Irish Quidditch League. This tradition, however, often leads to a number of trades or deals being conducted at the last minute- and such was the case last night, in Pitches all across Britain and Ireland. Most of these transactions involved lower-stringed players and undisclosed sums of money (see complete list, page T7), but one in particular caught our attention. Quinn Abercrombie, formerly of the Ballycastle Bats, was traded to the Montrose Magpies in exchange for Montrose's Beater Jenkinson and two other unnamed amateur players. The trade, like all others finalized last night, is effective immediately.
