[Derby] Bears jobs
Listers, Need good paying JOBS in Illinois.

I would add that building a "stadium" doesn't really mean what it has meant in the past. Presumably, the "stadium" will incorporate hotels, shops, cinemas (and all the jobs that come with them) etc etc. If I'm right, expect to hear this emphasised when the Bears put their hand out.
