We the undersigned would like Metro Link and Trafford Council to take into consideration the possible name change to the new proposed Metro Station called " Wharfside" which will be situated on the site of the old Samuel Platts Public House in Trafford Wharf Road, Manchester.

We ask Metro link to consider the possibility of renaming the station "Sammy Platts", rather than "Wharfside, over the years this public house was home to many thousands of fans who regularly frequented the pub and most feel it was like their local on match days and sadly have now lost that.

Also in keeping with those same fans who will be travelling on the new line and the surrounding area of Old Trafford, we are asking for this matter to be at least given some thought and hopefully help us maintain our history and fond memories of an institution that gave us so much pleasure.

Yours sincerely
