Although I see that you were being sarcastic.

Back in the 1970's Kevin Hector was a star centre forward for Clough's championship side at Derby. How many remember that he came from Bradford Park Avenue? Did BPA a lot of good didn't it?
I was one of three Sheffield fans I know of just at the Swindon game and as is apparent from these threads a lot of fans have Stanley as their other team. I travel nearly ninety miles to home games and have seen Stanley 8 times already this season.
Expressing an attitude towards other people's northern clubs is not going to encourage the dual team supporter Eric Whalley is on record as saying the club needs. Its going to alienate them and a lot of us have wives perhaps unhappy about us being away at matches every Saturday.
Say similar about Blackburn Burnley and Man U and see what I mean.
Its good that clubs with money can see Gary Roberts play well ahead of the January window. But the likes of me watching is not going to make any difference to the eventual fee. The fee may well have been agreed anyway.
Sarcasm does not come into it. I was on Kingfield with Gary Roberts on 15 April and I think he's a top bloke.
