Important Welfare Notice

4:41 PM, Wednesday, 03 June 09.

I wish to draw to your attention to a matter in which I am currently dealing, which relates to a male person, contacting a Club in the Cumberland FA area on the pretext of being a collector of ‘football memorabilia’.

The male is asking for polo shirts with club emblem thereon, County and League handbooks and letter headed notepaper. This issue is currently being dealt with by statutory agencies across the north of England.

If your clubs, coaches, managers etc are contacted by persons unknown to you, requesting such items it is asked that you take their details and forward them to the Cumberland FA.

It is therefore suggested that items as listed above are not distributed to collectors.

Thank you very much.
