Weaver&Bomfords NANTWICH TOWN V ASHTON UNITED SATURDAY 31 AUGUST 2013 OFFICIAL PROGRAMME OF NANTWICH TOWN FC TOWN NANTWICH OF PROGRAMME OFFICIAL £2 weaver&bomfords for everything your office needs 08456 123858 | www.weaverdigital.co.uk Good afternoon everyone, Today is a fantastic occasion for me personally and it gives me great pleasure in welcoming all the players, manage- ment, directors and supporters of Ashton United Football Club. Ashton are a club very close to my heart having spent the last 6 years there as manager. Since my departure Paul Phillips and Steve Halford have taken over as joint managers and are assembling a really good group of players. They have far too many special people behind the scenes for me MANAGER’S NOTES to mention but they know who they are! I wish everyone connected with the club all the very best for this season and the future. the dabber Our results of late haven't been acceptable and Monday’s performance at home to Witton Albion fell well short of what I expect from my team. The lads are fully aware and we will be EDITOR/ DESIGN looking to put a few things right this afternoon. Ashton will JAMES BRISCOE pose another big test for us as they have started the season really well and will no doubt be full of confidence and want to CONTRIBUTERS continue from where they left off on Monday. However, I am ADE ROBERTS, fully aware that things can change very quickly in football IAN GARNETT, and we will be looking to start to turn a corner today and put MICHAEL CHATWIN in a much improved performance. PHOTOGRAPHY The games against Skelmersdale and Matlock could have SIMON J. NEWBURY - gone either way and although we were very poor in the first www.simonjnewburyphotography.co.uk 45 minutes against Witton I am sure it would have been dif- ferent but for the sending off. You won’t hear us complaining, FRONT COVER EDIT we will just roll up our sleeves and look to move forward. The MATTHEW LIMESTALL - lads worked really hard in training on Thursday night and one @TheCornfed thing I can tell you is that they are certainly not suffering with a lack of confidence. The session was high tempo and it was NANTWICH TOWN FC very intense. Phil Eastwood uses the phrase 'train the way PRESIDENT FRANK BLUNTSTONE you play' quite a lot, well if we play today like we trained on CHAIRMAN JON GOLD Thursday we will be much, much better than we have been VICE-CHAIRMAN CLIVE JACKSON so far this season. DIRECTORS TONY DAVISON, JOHN DUNNING, I have big belief in this group of players but I have added STEVE TALBOT, BOB MELLING Stephen Johnson to our squad and barring a mishap I hope (NON-EXECUTIVE) he will be available for LIFE VICE-PRESIDENTS selection today.

Enjoy the game! *Football Faces* weaver&bomfords for everything your office needs 08456 123858 | www.weaverdigital.co.uk COMICAL red and yellow cards are becoming more and more common – and considering our love for football fun- nies here at The NLP, long may that continue! Referees are letting little slide these days. The book is coming out for increasingly bizarre incidents, there's little place for comedy where the men in black are concerned. So in the aftermath of one the more strange red cards on record last weekend, we thought we would chart the very best – or very worst – of the ones that have got on the wrong side of referees. Now that's a mis-timed tackle! Louis Smith wasn't having the best of days last Saturday. Left out of the AFC Croydon side to face Colliers Wood in the FA Cup Extra Preliminary Round, at 5-2 down there was little he could do when he got the call to come on finally came after 66 minutes. Referees don't like these thermal cycling shorts that seem to be in fashion, and whistle blower Jack Ohene didn't believe Smith when he said he had taken them off when the black ones he warmed up in didn't match the club’s maroon shorts. Smith protested that he'd removed the offending undergarment.... by not so subtly proving it! Sent off for flashing an official, his game was over before it started. Pires booked for taking the..... When you've got to go you've got to go. Welling's Loick Pires couldn't wait in September 2011 during the Wings Conference South clash with Woking. He jumped over the barrier in the first half and legged it into the supporters' toilets for a comfort break. His return was greeted with a yellow card for re-entering the field of player without permission. It left likeable Pires feeling rather flushed! Borat blunder is not niiiice! Ashley Vickers isn't a man to be messed with. So when a fan ran onto the pitch wearing nothing but a green mankini made famous by Borat and the stewards can't catch him, the 6'2 powerhouse is going in! The 38-year-old Dorchester player manager knew the importance of three points against Havant back in March 2011, and time was running out. So Vickers took down the illusive intruder and presented him to the club's security – only to be rewarded with a red card. “It beggars belief,” he grumbled. “The stewards actually thanked me!” It's a wind breaker! Levi Foster became the first player in the history of the game to be yellow carded... for breaking wind! The AFC GOP player was having his boots checked by referee Bunny Reid before the Portsmouth Sunday League clash with Apsley House in November 2009. The 30-year-old couldn't hold it in – and was lucky to be allowed to continue after team-mates talked the unim- pressed official round after a red card looked to be forthcoming. Levi, who went on to win man of the match in the 5-0 victory, blamed a dodgy Saturday night curry. Goal king Matt gets a bum rap! Wellingborough striker Matt Judge thought it would be a good 'craic' to moon AFC Rushden fans in the Northamp- tonshire Senior Cup last October. But it was a bum steer – as referee Scott Millar was watching. By the time he pulled his shorts up, the red card was in the air. The United Counties League side were forced to issue a statement apologising, labelling their player “stupid”. The cheek of it! The Beautiful Game – Dressed For Service? You wouldn’t turn up for work without the necessary uniform or safety gear would you? If you did, you’d probably be sent home to rectify the issue. Having said that, I do have a re-occurring dream that I get to work and have no socks on, or that I’m wearing pink sandals. That’s totally outrageous really as I don’t even own a pair of pink sandals! Anyhow, what’s the deal with Millwall turning up at Sheffield Wednesday recently with no kit to play in? You could understand it from a Sunday morning pub side but not a professional club surely? How embarrassing for them and especially for the kit man who eventually turned up with the players’ gear so they could change at the interval into their own strip. Having played the first half wearing an old (borrowed) Sheffield Wednesday strip, Millwall then took to the turf at the restart in their own colours. It must have been very confusing for both sets of supporters watching 45 minutes of Sheff Wednesday v Sheff Wednesday? We’re very proud of our colours and for us fans; we show this by wearing the replica shirts as worn by our play- ers. This however, is only a recent possibility. We’ve only been able to do so since the 1980’s as replica shirts didn’t get produced until then. Prior to the 80’s a rosette or scarf was the nearest we’d get to showing our col- ours at games. That must be really difficult to comprehend for the younger generation reading this, those that have never watched a black and white portable TV (with a coat hanger for an aerial) or can imagine life before mobile phones existed! Our clubs’ shirt gives us, and helps shape our identity. In the words of Liverpool’s Brendan Rogers ‘a football strip fuses a team together, it is a club’s uniform for players and fans alike’. I wonder if he feels the same about this seasons Liverpool away kit and 3rd kit. The re-introduction of ‘diamonds’ by US kit manufacturer Warrior would probably be enough of a turn-off to make any Liverpool fan switch to the blue of Everton – yes, the away and 3rd kits really are that bad! Some clubs go that extra mile with their club colours.

  • Club History
    Club History Organised football in Bangor dates from a meeting held in the city’s Magistrates' Rooms on 18 December 1876 – but not football as we might imagine because it was the handling variety that was first played in the city. It wasn’t until nearly a year later that it was decided to abandon rugby, to concentrate on association football, and to join the Football Association of Wales. The reason for the change of code? The number of players injured in that first experimental season! At that time, the club played at the Maes y Dref ground, at the lower end of Bangor’s High Street, and in the early years concentrated on playing challenge (friendly) fixtures and competing in the various cup competitions. Obviously, the club had no lack of ambition as on Easter Monday 1880, they took on the mighty Blackburn Rovers, giving a good account of themselves in a narrow 2 – 1 defeat. Nine years later, Bangor won the Welsh Cup for the first time, beating Northwich Victoria 2 – 1 at Wrexham before a crowd of 4,000, and in 1895-96 put on an even more impressive performance, beating north Wales giants Wrexham 3 – 0 at Llandudno to win football’s second-oldest cup competition for the second time. The Welsh Cup has been a favourite trophy of Bangor City over the years. City has won the trophy eight times – only Wrexham, Cardiff and Swansea have won it more often. Despite, or perhaps because of, City’s success in cup competitions, it became clear that the Maes y Dref ground was not up to standard, attracting complaints from visiting teams.

    Press Release News…Results…News…Results…Tables… ISSUE No. 38 WEEK ENDING 2nd May REVIEW OF THE WEEK Both Premier Division Play-Off semi-finals went to extra-time with ILKESTON TOWN edging out KENDAL TOWN in a seven goal thriller whilst NANTWICH TOWN, promoted via the play-offs last season, made the top tier Final when pipping GUISELEY 2-1. The Final also went to extra time to demonstrate just how competitive the Premier Division has been this season and after playing the role bridesmaid twice already this season ILKESTON TOWN finally made it to the altar beating Nantwich 2-1 in front of a crowd approaching 2,000. Just as in the top Division it was second and third place teams BELPER TOWN and STOCKSBRIDGE PS who made the First Division South play-off final with the latter having a convincing 5-2 win thanks to a Mark Ward treble against CARLTON TOWN whilst Belper needed just the one goal to oust RUSHALL OLYMPIC. In the Final it was third place Stocksbridge that came out on top thanks to one strike from Andy Ring. There was a big shock in the First Division North play-offs, however, when CURZON ASHTON knocked out second place SKELMERSDALE UNITED after finishing a massive eighteen points adrift of “Skem” whose manager Tommy Lawson must hate the end of season lottery having lost three times in it, twice with Skelmersdale in the last two seasons and once previously with Prescot Cables. NEWCASTLE BLUE STAR then set up the possibility of a North East promotion double following Durham’s success in lifting the title the previous Saturday when they beat COLWYN BAY on penalties on Wednesday and they duly obliged after Curzon failed to repeat their midweek heroics going down 4-1 at Blue Star.

  • Season 2014-2015
    Season 2014-2015 Season Review - Results – Tables - Statistics Compiled by Alan Allcock with editorial by Dave Watters The 2014 -15 EVO -STIK Northern Premier League campaign will be widely remembered as the season FC Unit ed of Manchester celebrated their tenth anniversary by avoiding the heartbreak of the play-offs to finally win promotion as top flight champions. Not many will forget the mark by Curzon Ashton either, the Tameside outfit winning successive promotions as the Premier Division’s play-off winners a year after coming up as runaway First Division North champions. In the NPL’s three title races, Mickleover Sports were the clearest winners, taking the title by nine points from runners-up Leek Town who lost out in the play-offs, Sutton Coldfield Town earning the second promotion slot. Salford City dominated the headlines on and off the pitch in First Division North and not just nationally but internationally after their takeover by Manchester United’s Class of 92. They went on to beat runners-up Darlington 1883 to the title. The Quakers did win their play-offs, going up with the Ammies to take another step towards fulfilling their dream of succeeding the old Darlington in the Football League one day. In the top flight, Belper Town, Trafford, Witton Albion and Marine went down but thanks to the demise of Salisbury City, the Mariners celebrated a Football Association reprieve as the relegated club at Step 3 with the best record. New Mills were also saved from dropping out of First Division North in the FA’s annual reshuffle of clubs at Steps 1-4, Padiham returning on their own to Step 5.

In 1889–90 Bootle became founder 2008-09 members of the Football Alliance, narrowly missing out on the football 1964-65, 1975-76, league to the blues. That season was the 1978-79 most successful as we finished league runners-up, reached the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, where we lost to Blackburn 1965-66, 1967-68, Rovers (0-7). When the Alliance merged with the Football 1973-74 League in 1892, Bootle became founder members of the new Liverpool County Second Division. However, despite a respectable 8th place FA Youth Cup Under 18’s - West Cheshire League - Manager Richie Boswarva final position, the club dropped out after one season (and 1977-78, 1984-85, 1990-91, were replaced by neighbours Liverpool) and seemingly 1999-00, 2005-06 Under 17’s - Liverpool Premier League - Manager Ste Miller disappeared due to financial problems.

    Press Release News…Results…News…Results…Tables… ISSUE No. 39 REVIEW OF WEEK Season 03 -04 Final Issue With the Championship safely tucked away HUCKNALL TOWN failed to make it a cup and league double when DROYLSDEN increased their 2-0 League Challenge Cup Final First Leg lead to 4-1 on Tuesday evening. The “Bloods” then added to their dominance in head to head meetings when they returned at the weekend to beat Hucknall in the Peter Swales Memorial League Shield staged annually between the Champions and Cup-Winners. The President’s Cup Final at WORKINGTON produced a crackerjack finale in front of a crowd touching 1,600. The tie see-sawed backwards and forwards in to extra-time and continued in the same vein through the additional thirty minutes before the two legs produced a 6-6 draw with BARROW taking the honours on the away goals rule. The play-offs also produced exciting games with WHITBY TOWN and RADCLIFFE BOROUGH going in to a penalty shoot out that Borough won 8-7 after a 2-2 stalemate. The local Tameside derby between ASHTON UNITED and HYDE UNITED also went to extra-time before the Premier Division outfit made their ranking count over the First Division Champions. But it was the winners of the other two matches BRADFORD PARK AVENUE and BURSCOUGH who made it to the Play Off Final with away victories over Ashton and Radcliffe respectively. Bradford’s win left Ashton to reflect on the fact that they had never been out of the top thirteen that would have qualified them automatically for the Conference North for the last five months of the season until the final week.
