More details from petition creator

Preston is at the risk of losing its iconic football museum to Manchester. The National Football Museum could be forced to move from its home on Sir Tom Finney Way, Deepdale, to Manchester due to a lack of funding. The museum has been based in Preston since it was opened in 2001 thanks to a multi-million pound lottery grant. Deepdale was chosen as home to the museum as it is one of the most deprived areas in the region. So far the museum has attracted hundreds of thousands of people through its doors, meeting all visitor targets.
