Title: Altrincham Supporters Travel donates £300 to the Altrincham FC Patrons.
Post by: Jacobs on May 12, 2008, 02:38:30 PM

All,

Firstly I would just like to thank everyone who travelled away using the coach service this year, to be honest some of our away followings were ridiculous considering we did not have the best year on the pitch,

Also I would like to thank everyone who supported the money raising activities that have helped throughout the season. (Torquay Raffle, Donations and the football cards)

I am delighted to announce that through some excellent away coaches in the last month we in the end made a profit overall.

As we aim to break even over the season I have decided to give £300 to the Altrinchma FC Patrons. By doing this we are helping the club through the summer and this will leave us a small buffer for next seasons travel.

More information on the Patrons club is below

For 2008-09 Altrincham FC is again running its Patrons' Club - for the fourth year since its foundation. Vice-chairman Graham Rowley writes:

Great news.

I know it was looking a bit dicey at one stage especially when Torquay was moved to a Tuesday, and the fact that a loss is just not possible.

The strength of our away support, culminating in the Weymouth atmosphere, was one of the few bright points of last season.

To be able to put a bit into the club as well is great.
