Its an interesting statement actually as I was also born in Swindon and never actually lived there either. But when someone asks me where I am from, I always answer Swindon. If the discussion goes further into where i've actually lived, it makes me sound like some kind of gypsy!!
My dad always answers Wantage as he's been there for most of his life, even though born and bred in Swindon.
My Dad was born in the Forest of Dean and only moved to Swindon when he was 25 but when asked he always said he came from Swindon.

Didn't Wellens say that Broadbent wasn't in the original squad because of his contribution to the salary cap. He was only added in after we didn't sign someone on deadline day, hence there was space in the salary cap to add him in.

In other interviews he's said we were way below, he could never make his mind up...

Interview as expected really bizarrely Salford emailed us about Wellens. Money running out, Bogle money kept us going for a few months, people interested in buying have dwindled away with all the uncertainty of COVID, court case etc.

Yep this! Also interesting that Power claims we are at cap, though could have signed a forward? Is that a sign of how big our budget was last year? Yet they all claim it wasn't the biggest in the league.

That’s the first time I’ve ever heard him openly say he’s trying to sell the club.

Well at least the vocal minority can prove there’s loads of people queuing up to buy us now!

I suspect this will prompt a number of posts by That Nestor Lorenzo Heade(r) on how fan ownership will take the club to great heights.
