There has been without any doubt at all, a few rumours flying about recently . The best thing to do with any false rumours or chinese whispers (can we still use that phrase?) is to squash them. As you have now done.

A simpler statement issued earlier might have read something like this:

" We are aware that on social media there has been some conjecture about a "vote" on a "name change." The current Board and all those associated with our club can confirm that no such vote has taken place and no name change is being contemplated for the moment."

This would have rendered the rumour mill redundant in an instant.

I think that given the past history of the club, a little unease about alleged mystery votes or name changes in suspicious circumstances is quite understandable. At one time I had first hand experience of some of the shadier characters involved in the "running" (down?) of various manifestations of "The Boro." It has taken a long time for those wounds to heal for some of us. For others it is simply too much. They say they will never return.

I have proven my faith in the current set up by:

Renewing a season ticket:
becoming a sponsor:
attending home and away matches:
introducing new supporters:
being part of the 200 club:
telling any remaining doubters what they are missing this season and last.

But I reserve the right to query things occasionally.
