You're right actually it is a ridiculous argument and I apologise for my contribution!. The forum is much like our team, it starts the pre-season enthusiastic but gets ever more depressing as the weeks go by.

Pointless arguments are what internet forums are all about! I don't see why anyone bar the man himself would be that bothered though.
Greatest Manager - Mathews/Matthews. It's all about the medal haul...
Yeah apologies for starting that little petty argument, anything to keep me away from exam study! :)
My tuppence worth.
There is one 'T' in Alan Mathews. To spell it any other way is incorrect. There is no argument to the contrary - anywhere it's spelled Matthews is an error, it isn't an either/or. I need to be quite emphatic about this as it is a long-held bugbear of mine.
Secondly, if he isn't manager of Shelbourne by the end of the season I will be staggered.
My obsession is two-fold. a) I'm an unapologetic, pedantic journalist. b) my own surname gets spelled wrong a million ways to sunset. But mostly it's because of a)... :)
Just to throw my bit in I've only seen Alan have his name spelt Mathews. I always thought Mathews spelt it with two T's and was always saying it was spelt wrong but sure the tv, papers and the programmes couldn't all be wrong...........could they?;)
