Do you see City allowing a team with a name associated with their fierce rivals to use their facilities?

Absolutely spot on City bought into Hyde United at a time they were on the verge of the Conference League.
They changed the club colours from red to blue they then changed their name to Hyde FC dropping United.
Then when the City Academy came on stream they walked away leaving Hyde now in the Northern Premier league.

The stadia opposite the Etihad is nothing to do with City, it's the 'Manchester Regional Area', part of Sport City.

The only issue with moving there is does it have any office space or hospitality, I'm not sure if does.
So ok it's a playing venue but where would we use as our "base"?

If we are really to break free from the AJ and stay in Salford, the only real option I see is to go into a joint venture with Swinton at Agectoft if it ever gets built.
Providing Swinton want to after all their ground work and the council would let us after leaving the AJ.

There's also FC United's ground in Moston where the Manchester Red Devil brand would be welcomed. Salford has gone now, the only way Salford could build from the ground and upwards is to share Swinton's future stadia, however, until that becomes available We're in poop street and in the same boat as our neighbours. Who'd of thought it eh, after witnessing our closest neighbours struggle due to selling of their home and ridicule their support and club, and yet how ironic this could be that Salford could well end up negotiating with a begging bowl about joining a new corporate ventured stadium. How things can change eh. Deary, Deary me.

Re: The End? : Tue Sep 20, 2016 5:51 pm  
Too the tune of 'Fields Of Athenry' Quite a sad tearful song. And very true

Against the Gasworks wall
I heard a young boy calling
Wilky you are leaving the Willows astray
For your pockets of unpaid bills
Your council mates have laundered the thrills
and built the big white elephant down Trafford way.

Low lie the field at Willows Road
Where once we graced the great Risman soar
We had fielding on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
Glory down the field at Willows Road.

Against the Willows wall
I heard a young boy calling
For Salford sold its pride and all its soul
to a greedy nice bloke bent on changing rules
He rebelled and brought us down
points deduction to shut up the clown
Now its lonely down the fields down Willows Road

Low lie the fields of willows road
where once we graced the great Risman soar
We had Fielding on the wing
with dreams and songs to sing
Glory down the fields of Willows Road

By a lonely Batley wall
The boy watched the last try falling
All the fans all know we die
If we lose this crucial tie
Its so lonely down the field at Willows road.

Low lie the fields of willows road
Where once we graced the Great Risman soar.
We had Fielding on the wing
With dreams and songs to sing
Glory down the fields of Willows Road.

Dreary stuff that, Stan.

We're not at the Willows, and while it's nice to look back fondly, it doesn't do us any good right now.

Stan? Dreary times are ahead whether you like it or not. And looking at your particular forum the general consensus is dreary too.

Yeah, it's not that difficult to figure out. Foxtrot Echo. F E. Flat Earth.

One look at your previous posts contents, your writing style, and the fact that you can't help yourself.
