Can someone tell me why we have dropped the Linnets part of our name.
Are we ashamed of it, we have just lost a part of our short history.
Can we just change our name or did the trust vote secretly again.
I am confused by the actions taken ?

Greenwood trying to convince himself that its still the old Runcorn FC.

Can he do that though, what about us supporters.
Does he need permission from the league and the FA

Should be linnets always

should be Halton Arms and Pavillions F C . But then that wouldnt bring in the RUNCORN cash cow would it ???????

Incase anyone feels misinformed from reading this thread, the clubs name has not been changed, its still Runcorn Linnets FC.

And I will now tell you what the next poster in this thread would have said.

" So why do our match reports refer to us just as Runcorn? "

If I was writing Linnets match reports I'd refer to them just as "Runcorn" because...

1. It's easier (I switch between Town and Runcorn in most reports it only matters twice a season a la Sheffield, Manchester, Ashton and Atherton!)
2. I was jokingly (of course)trying to wind up the other Runcorn side

It could just be no less sinister than the reporter does it automatically without thinking!

Exactly Barry, its just a reason for a dig.

crap take your blinkers off
