Saturday the 14th of May saw the Altrincham FC heroes from 2005 get together once again at the J Davidson Stadium for a Reunion Dinner to celebrate their achievement 17 years ago in the inaugural North / South Play-Off final at Stoke City.
Altrincham FC Community Company got in touch with all the players and staff from that match and there was no hesitation in all of them agreeing to attend. Unfortunately on the night Mark Maddox was unavailable but everyone's thoughts were with him and all other sufferers of Motor Neurone Disease as this was the chosen charity to raise funds for. Another member of that squad, George Melling had passed away just weeks previously from the terrible disease.
Many thanks to Carole Nash who donated a fantastic first prize for our raffle on the night - won by Aaron Howarth and also to all "The Flaggers" who donated half their funds from a matchday raffle to the MNDA cause.
The proceeds from the night were split between MNDA and Altrincham FC Community Sports with both charities receiving £1300.
Many thanks to all who attended and to all the players and staff for giving up their time for this worthwhile cause.
