Skegness Town V Hallam 2020 The Lilywhite Skegness Town v Hallam FC Saturday, 26th September 2020 Vertigo Stadium, Skegness Kick-off 3pm £1 1 Skegness Town AFC The Vertigo Stadium, Wainfleet Road, Skegness PE25 2EL (founded 1947) Chairman: Martin Jackson Secretary: Stuart Capes Treasurer: Allan Gray Committee members: Jamie Whittam, Nick Chapman, Mick Davison, Kevin Brady and Derek Andrew Manager: Nathan Collins Assistant Managers: Chris Rawlinson & Nick Chapman Player/coach: Leon Mettam Coaches: Ben Collins, Brian Sargeant Physio: Arun Gray Cover photo: Jenk Acar in action against Dronfield Town last Saturday. Photo by Nigel West 2 Chairman’s welcome Today we extend a warm Vertigo welcome to the players, officials and supporters of Hallam FC. It was great to be back in competitive action last Saturday, and we are grateful to you for co- operating with the extra precautions we had in place to guard against the spread of COVID-19. Having done so well to combat the virus and get back to being able to watch grassroots football it would be a tragedy if we had to close our doors again. Please stay alert, stay safe and continue to follow the latest guidance. It was a shame that the lads couldn’t build on their first half lead last week, and slipped to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Dronfield Town. I’m sure the players, and management team, will be going all out to show their bouncebackability today, but I’m equally sure that Hallam won’t be in any mood to gift wrap the three points. Don’t forget we are in action again on Tuesday night when we travel to Selby Town who also lost their opening game of the season. It wouldn’t be the same without a midweek trip to North Yorkshire. You will recall that two seasons ago we travelled all the way to Selby in the league cup only to have the game postponed by a tea-time deluge. Boston League latest Both our Boston League sides played their last pre-season friendlies last weekend ahead of the big kick-off today. Both won 2-1, the development side overcoming a strong Louth Old Boys outfit. Today our Reserves travel to Sleaford to take on Northgate Olympic in the Premier Division, while the development side travel to the Peter Paine Performance Centre for a Challenge Cup tie against Boston College. Next Saturday our second string are at home to Fishtoft in the Fishtoft Cup, but the match will kick-off at the earlier time off 2pm. The development side travel to Woodhall Spa United Reserves next Saturday for a league fixture, kicking-off at 2.30pm. Player Sponsorship Don’t forget there are a large number of sponsorship options open to you either as an individual or as a local business. You can get to know more by speaking to any of the committee members at today’s game.

    blo gs.lse.ac.uk http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandpolicy/archives/26897 ‘The Truth’ of the Hillsborough disaster is only 23 years late John Williams was present on the fateful day in April of 1989. He places the event within its historical and sociological context, and looks at the slow process that finally led to the truth being revealed. I have to begin by saying – rather pretentiously some might reasonably argue – that I am a ‘f an scholar’, an active Liverpool season ticket holder and a prof essional f ootball researcher. I had f ollowed my club on that FA Cup run of 1989 (Hull City away, Brentf ord at home) and was at Hillsborough on the 15 April – f ortunately saf ely in the seats. But I saw all the on- pitch distress and the bodies being laid out below the stand f rom which we watched in disbelief as events unf olded on that awf ul day. Fans carrying the injured and the dying on advertising boards: where were the ambulances? As the stadium and the chaos f inally cleared, Football Trust of f icials (I had worked on projects f or the Trust) asked me to take people f rom the f ootball organisations around the site of the tragedy to try to explain what had happened.

  • Hillsborough Hall & Hillsborough Park
    HILLSBOROUGH HALL & HILLSBOROUGH PARK The Steades Thomas Steade was the builder of Hillsborough Hall. He was the son of Nicholas Steade and Anne Micklethwaite and was born on 16 March 1728 at Ecclesfield. He married Millicent (Meliscent) Pegge, who was the daughter of Strelley Pegge of Beauchief and Mary Broughton from Lowdham, on 30 April 1768. He was a magistrate and he died in 1793. Hillsborough House was built in 1779 as a dwelling for Thomas and his wife Meliscent who had been living in nearby Burrowlee House, which is situated just 250 metres to the east. The Steades were a family of local of landowners whose history went back to the 14th century. At the time of construction the house stood in rural countryside well outside the Sheffield boundary. Steade named his new residence in honour of Wills Hill who at the time was known as the Earl of Hillsborough (later Lord Downside of Hillsborough, County Down), an eminent politician of the period and a patron of the Steades. Steade acquired more land and the grounds eventually had an area of 103 acres (0.42 km2). They were much more extensive than the present Hillsborough Park, stretching north to the current junction of Leppings Lane and Penistone Road and included the site on which Hillsborough Stadium now stands. It extended further south encompassing the site now occupied by the Hillsborough arena. The grounds had areas given over to agriculture but there was also extensive parkland featuring a lake, two lodges and a tree lined avenue. There was also a walled garden, which still exists today, which provided fresh produce for the house’s kitchens.

It’s always proved difficult to find positive results against todays opponents, the last of which was in this fixture last season when I took temporary charge in the touch- line absences of Simon & Jason the win coming after an early goal wrestled the ini- tiative and saw us weather a second-half storm to run out 1 nil winners. Hallam’s current form looks very positive with just one defeat in their last seven games in what apparently was a feisty affair at home to a resurgent Rossington Main side. I understand Hallam ended the game with just eight players on the pitch after a sending-off and two sin-bins. Let’s hope todays clash isn’t quite so feisty. Last Saturday’s result against a “dogged” Dronfield Town was particularly disap- pointing given how we dominated play for virtually the whole of the ninety minutes, missed chances cost us badly.
