What is the footballing world coming to?

Owners of Macclesfield Town, and Macclesfield Borough Councillors - you should hang your heads in shame.  Have you not being paying attention to the situation at Kettering, with our owner and Council to see how it should be done?

How long do you think we would have to live to hear the leader of our council say something like this -

"Macclesfield Town Football Club is part of our heritage and we should not and cannot lose it," said Michael Jones, the leader of Cheshire East Council.

"We are incredibly proud of their achievements and it is unfortunate that they have succumbed to the financial pressures exacerbated by our current economy.

"It is in times like this that Council's can and should play a part, after all the club is incredibly important to the town's identity and adds to the visitor economy enormously, providing much-needed jobs and prosperity."

  1. The lack of any backing whatsoever for KTFC from KBC makes my blood boil! Another £40k for an almost anonymous volleyball set up but not even the time of day for the only thing apart from Wicksteed Park which is known about our godforsaken town by an outsider.
