My thoughts exactly.

Do we really want to be doing a Man City and lose ALL identity and become
just another fantasy football team?

Or perhaps do a Notts County? Or even a Cardiff? Ignoring the Ridsdale
connection, they've been in the process of rescue by Malaysian businessmen
since may and are now under a transfer embargo.

As much as it leaves a bitter taste in the mouth, I'd rather have the status
quo.
