Awful for Macclesfield, gotta feel for their fans - 17:44 - Sep 18 with 985 views | Ryorry | https://mailchi.mp/thefsa/fan-mail-silkmen-devastated-by-macclesfield-town-windi "Macclesfield Town fans say they are “devastated” after the club was wound up in the High Court over debts totalling more than £500,000. The 146-year-old National League club was forced into liquidation during a hearing at the Insolvency and Companies Court earlier this week. Following the news, the Silkmen Supporters’ Trust laid the blame squarely with club owner Amar Alkadhi - but called for fans to pull together behind potential phoenix club efforts. “The court ruling is in effect the end of the club in the present format,” the Silkmen Supporters' Trust said. “There is no easy way back from this.” The demise of Macclesfield Town once again highlights the urgent need for reform of the game's regulation according to our chair Malcolm Clarke. “Despite this loss," Clarke said, "the future of football in the town may well be supporter-led. "We have seen phoenix clubs emerge with success in other parts of the country so we’ll be offering Macclesfield Town fans and the Silkmen Supporters’ Trust whatever help we can.” [Post edited 18 Sep 2020 17:45]

The way football has acted since Covid has shown the concept of "The Football Family" is up there with Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy. | |
