[QUOTE="Tony Manx, post: 724241, member: 50236"] There are extreme partisan fans in both clubs and also others in the towns who actually do not go to matches! These guys want to stay separate even if it means playing in even lower divisions. The most sensible ones, hopefully in the majority, see that it is inevitable that the professional teams, as opposed to the clubs which could recommence as amateur clubs, will merge or face bankruptcy! Neither team are like Pau who have Total as a sponsor or Toulouse (Airbus) or Clermont (Michelin) etc. How on earth can teams compete on that basis and a combine outfit could attract such sponsorship!
