and this is where we will fail to secure anything from anywhere. Who would be willing to give the likely sums wanted without getting anything major in return?
As much as I don't like the idea of buy-the-club coming here, there is no doubt that the money they would bring, the long term stability they would offer (merchandise sales would legitmately be ours etc) is much needed and could go a long way.
But, a club with a history like ours does not need tainting with Roman Abramovich style monstrosities. Even if they only stayed a year we would forever be the club that bought its success. And we have never done that.
Look Stanley up in the dictionary
Stanley
verb to do the hard way
Lets have a 3rd round draw at Old Trafford instead please
