What in the hell is that title?

    prefer is a transitive verb, wins is intransitive.

    They've changed "[they] ...(would).... prefer [he] wins [it] than Nigel (does)" to "[they] prefer [he] wins [it] than Nigel" which is still correct.

    Is the "wins" that throws me. Shouldn't that be "win"?
