Flixton FC
Mon 19th March 2012 | Flixton | By Ian Templeman
Following recent speculation and press coverage, the League Management Committee wishes to make the following statement regarding the position of Flixton FC.
In the present economic climate and recession, Flixton FC, like some others, are under pressure as a result of dwindling support both on and off the field. Club Chairman Lenny Wood is therefore exploring a range of options on the best way to take Flixton FC forward in the future.
One of these options is the club's withdrawal (resignation) of their football team from the NWCFL Premier Division. Consequently, notice of this possible outcome has been served in accordance with league rules.
No decision has yet been made and various opportunities for the future are still under active consideration. A final decision should be made and confirmed to the NWCFL Management Committee by the end of March, and subsequently an announcement regarding the club's future can then be posted on the League website.
In any event, everyone can rest assured that the team management are committed to fielding their ‘strongest possible side' until the end of this season, as they have always done in the past – Flixton FC's current league position of 7th testifies to this.
