THE ONLY PRESTON BASED TOURIST ATTRACTION

This is a picture of the legendary Tom Finney statue/fountain at the National Football Museum in Preston, Lancashire. It is a quality museum and undoubtedly the best (and possibly only) tourist attraction in Preston so it comes as a great shock to be invited to join a facebook group recently entitled Keep the National Football Museum in Preston. Thanks to outrageous overtures to take it to Manchester (by who we're not sure) - not content with having two of the richest clubs in the world they also want the UK's footballing heritage on show as well. If you fancy a little trip up there, you could set off early for Tranmere via Preston or check out their website for the virtual tour: www.nationalfootballmuseum.com To join the facebook group - and you should - get involved: www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=38630178090
