Excellent idea and welcome news. Hyndburn as a name means absolutely nothing. People where I live, 25 miles to the south have never even heard of it. Accrington is a name that's known all over the world. Obviously, Stanley's a major reason and a very positive one in light of the club's incredible journey against the odds back to the football league. Accrington bricks are renowned for durability and strength. The Accrington Pals will forever be associated with courage and comradeship.

The whole concept of Hyndburn was a mistake right from the start. In the early 80's I had a running argument in the letters columns of the Observer with Winnie Hogan and others about the merits of Accrington v Hyndburn. I'm glad that at long last the council have seen sense.
