Everyone seems to be looking at it as a negative for the other club and not focusing on the positives it could actually give them... one of the best ownership groups in football at the moment which would put in place a proper business & footballing structure including promoting youth, a proven focus on maintaining historic aspects of a club & investment in stadium & training facilities. Plus a link to us would provide not only some top youth talent on loan but enable them to benefit from the footballing knowledge of the people here and commercially capitalise on being linked to one of the most well known clubs in world football.
I think fans of a hell of a lot of clubs, including a historic club currently in the shit, would jump at that chance.
