Said I would retire from this board, but FFS!
Mr Bowler should hang his head in shame......please, get real! Google him, his history, he is not a sugar daddy, the board are not wealthy men...compared to you and I possibly, but in the football world ...NO.
They are not like the owners of Port Vale, orient or Leeds...thank God. Prior to Colclough's move they had to pay wages and expenses from their own pockets...would you? Did you know that?
So, Yes, you are correct we cannot compete with other clubs on wages. And do you know what, that's partly why I support crewe. We put on the pitch every game 7/8 home grow players, (11 v Walsall) plus others on the bench who know they have a chance of having a chance.
Of course I want success, promotion, Wembly finals etc, but never at the cost of exposing our club to being raped by 'white knights' from Europe, England or wherever.
Support a 'franchise' of city, united,spurs, arse, etc with no home grown and even minimal 'imported' British players, or support Crewe....? A no brainer.
Putting on tin hat now.
