IE loans to other sides to cover injurys & in the case of the Player a chance maybe to break into their own first team or otherwise get some valuable playing experience. ......and that is about as far as it should go. Co=operation by all means, but mergers? Never! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would you share a training complex? I guess our plodders would just use the gym and run up and down the steps all day and leave the United players to use the football pitches.

Agree.....but the needless intense rivalry goes to far in times where(as an example) we had strikers galore who were not playing,who could have gone out on loan,saved us a % of their wages,and maybe either been sold or found some form,and worked there way back into the managers plans.. Teams they were loaned out to (potentially) would have benefited too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandrewchaz Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 There's a different culture about being a blade. Half of my family and friends are blades but I could never bring myself to be one. What we need is realistic wages and stick to that. Don't pay anyone above xxxxx and make sure prices are kept at a reasonable level. If that means we stay in League one so be it but I don't get how a club with our fanbase is in constant financial trouble (well I do - the people running it don't have a clue).

CircleSeven Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Just spotted this thread. Thought at first it was a joke ironic post or something but it appears to be a serious suggestion. Literally an absolute complete non starter for me. I can see Wednesday ceasing to exist on our current trajectory, but to willingly merge with local rivals to peruse ‘success’? No. No no no. No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
