I extend a warm Paget welcome to the players, supporters and directors of Leicester Road who have made the journey here from Hinckley. This is Leicester Road's first away game of the season after their acceptance into the league following an FA appeal resulting from the demise of Hinckley United. Over the years Paget enjoyed many great games against Hinckley United, Hinckley Athletic and Hinckley Town and hopefully today's match will be befitting of the occasion. Our start of the season has not been what we would've hoped for, however with the massive turn over of players since the summer and the inevitable work and holiday commitments of players during August, we certainly haven't disgraced ourselves at this new level. I do feel we are only a few small steps away from clicking and finding our rhythm which will provide the platform for a successful season and hopefully we can get the all important three points today. The spirit in our dressing room is very high and we have a committed group of players who are determined to push the club to the next level with the support of our excellent coaches and dedicated football committee. Following today's match we travel to Inkberrow in the Les James Challenge Cup on Saturday 6th September which has been dedicated as this season's annual non league day. It would be great to see as many supporters at Inkberrow to help cheer us onto victory. Our support really can be our twelfth man and can provide us with the platform to progress the club further. Our next 'home' match will be on Wednesday 24th September when we will play Birmingham AFA side Village FC (7:15pm kick off) here at the Trevor Brown Memorial Ground in the H S Smith Shield. This competition comes from our time in the Birmingham AFA and hopefully will see us collect our first silverware of the season. I hope to be in a position to announce our first fundraising event of the season in our next programme, with what will be the first of two sporting dinners we will host this season. Until then, let's unite together as a club and roar the Bears on as we look to secure a vital 3 points. Come on you Bears! COME ON YOU BEARS!

At this time the supporters of Hinckley United, disenchanted with the Hinckley United FC owners running of club affairs established a phoenix club, AFC Hinckley, who play at Heather St John. AFC Hinckley were placed at Step 6 viewed, at that time, as the phoenix club of the folded Hinckley United FC. Hinckley United’s youth section then sought to enter adult football and appealed that they were the true continuation of Hinckley United FC and that AFC Hinckley were in fact a new club. This appeal went to the Football Association. During this time Hinckley United FC’s floodlit team was rebranded as Leicester Road FC. After a successful appeal Leicester Road FC was placed at step 7 of the non-league pyramid replacing the demised Phoenix United (the 4th club from Vale Stadium to fold).

Monday August 25th 2014 Paget Rangers 0 Feckenham 1 Paget slipped to their fourth defeat of the season following a narrow defeat at the hands of Feckenham at a rain soaked Trevor Brown Memorial Ground. Due to injury and unavailability the Paget side showed 6 changes to the team defeated narrowly on Saturday in the President’s Cup. Most of the early action in the first half was confined to midfield. Paget’s first chance came when Reid and Fagg combined well and then a Feckenham attack was cleared by Bond after good work by Adams and Connolly. Hicks then fired wide of the Paget goal and Marston missed with a header as Feckenham threatened. Paget then earned a free-kick on the edge of the Feckenham box but Ashfall shot straight at Cox in the Feckenham goal. Bond was forced to clear a Feckenham free-kick after a foul by Bennett who then conceded a corner which was dealt with easily by the Paget defence. Following a foul on Fagg, Morris whipped in a dangerous free-kick that Feckenham cleared eventually. The busy Fagg then forced Cox into a good save and Cullen had a cross-shot which Feckenham cleared for a corner. In the next Feckenham attack Hicks evaded a tackle by Bennett before firing in a powerful shot that was cleared by Barnes. Just before half-time Morris’s cross-shot was followed up by Reid whose shot was eventually cleared by the Feckenham defence. Half-time Paget Rangers 0 Feckenham 0 The second half opened in dramatic fashion as Feckenham scored from the first attack.
