Quote: fun time frankie "I can understand that but didn't Tim Wilby try to do exactly the same thing you all seem to forget that and on Hudgell not all us Rovers fans think he's some sort of god I know he bankrolls us but because he does he kicks off if anyone dares to criticise him and threatens to take his ball home'"
Seem to remember Wilby and Lloyd wanted to merge the two clubs and have the resultant team and City playing in there planned stadium. The idea was an anathema to all concerened to the point that Roy Waudby tried to buy back FC and eventually proved there downfall.
Barry Lilley on the other hand refused to take 2 SL clubs into Div. 1, because SL was restructured to 12 teams after the breakaway. His actions lead to Hudds merging with Sheffield and FC absorbing Gateshead kuching£££££
