Re: The Whole Town v Linnets Debate Which Appears To Be Gathering Momentum

Runcorn Linnets use and abuse the name of the old club when it suits, yet they are more than happy when it suits, to point out that they are a new club.
Runcorn Football Club folded the day it left Runcorn. FACT!

Runcorn FC Halton and Runcorn Linnets are not Runcorn Football Club.
The only connection they have is the adaptation of the name Linnets, the colours yellow and green and a few former Runcorn Linnets Supporters.
Runcorn Football Club still actually exists, ask The Doc, he will tell you that, hence either Runcorn Linnets or Runcorn Town not being allowed to use the name Runcorn Football Club.

Hats off to Runcorn Town, they have achieved their ground status without the need for constant money appeals, I am unaware, but they havent needed to go cap in hand to the council in order to fund a ground. Runcorn Linnets new ground will not be owned by Runcorn Linnets, they will simply be Council Tennants. Look what happened when the old club became Council Tennants at the Autoquest, it got shafted.

For Urkey to dismiss Runcorn Towns events as non Community, then he simply makes himself look bitter. What is a community event, rattling a collection tin in The Old Town?

Fair play to Runcorn Town, if their admission price is no more than £3.
I wonder what Runcorn Linnets will charge when they move to Runcorn, it wont be any less than £5.
