Have a Southampton supporter as a mate and he just sent me this link and was ranting and raving as to the cheek of the author, it however has got me thinking that in the current financial climate and with seemingly a number of clubs close to extinction could local clubs merge together.
It will be a touchy subject but would fans not be able to accept 2 local financially insecure clubs joining together to enhance the prospects and chances of getting bigger and reaching the bright lights of the premiership.
