| The franchise team set-up by the supporters of Manchester United who were against the Glazer takeover?
Do you like teams that have this advantage and steal fans from the big clubs and don't have any history themselves. We've seen it with Wimbledon, Liverpool and the lesser-publiced Barnsley and I presume there's others.
I also noticed they are getting twice as many people at their games than anyone else, because they rent a bigger ground (if you can call them that at that level). Hardly a fair advantage. | |

| Holker Old Boys played them in a friendly a few seasons ago. A great turn out for Holker as a lot of fans turned up for the game | |

Do you like teams that have this advantage and steal fans from the big clubs and don't have any history themselves. We've seen it with Wimbledon, Liverpool and the lesser-publiced Barnsley and I presume there's others.
I also noticed they are getting twice as many people at their games than anyone else, because they rent a bigger ground (if you can call them that at that level). Hardly a fair advantage. Completely against them. They set up a club because they were pissed off with a takeover, nothing more, nothing less. If it was a controversial takeover at any other club, they'd be a few moans and groans, maybe a few protests and that'd be it. With Man United, typically it was made into more of a drama by more people (due to Man United's huge fanbase) and ultimately a club was formed. It wasn't as if they we're in a situation like Wimbledon where their club was ripped out of the community just at the click of one man's fingers, and dumped 60 miles away in lego land town. Wimbledon I'm all for, and I'm glad they've rightfully got the Fa Cup back. | |
