Altrincham Town FC
« on: August 06, 2009, 05:34:04 PM »

When we travelled to Luton their programme referred to us as Altrincham Town and now the Times newspaper refer to us in the same mind boggling stupid manner. Why ? Step forward www.football.co.uk where many lazy hacks no doubt get their information from. I have sent them an email to set the matter straight but has anyone any ideas as to how this got there in the first place as I cannot find this reference to us on any other site, journal or book.

When Altrincham were due to play Darlington Stuart Hall did one of his verbally over the top pieces on Radio Five contantly referring to the ground as the Moss Rose. Maybe we should just merge with Macclesfield and get it over with.

This is just madness. Go to our masters at www.thefa.com and guess what they call us - Altrincham Town ! If the FA don't know what we are called and we have to pay them every year with massive registration fees then god help us all !
