Thank you, West Didsbury and Chorlton AFC Committee. ​ A welcome to Stockport Town After the weekend’s FA Cup exploits, West return to the quest for league points when we welcome Stockport Town to Brookburn Road. Following last Tuesday’s draw at home to Wythenshawe Town, this will be the second in a run of four consecutive league matches against Greater Manchester rivals. Though we are at a stage of the season where the league table can barely be described as embryonic, teams have begun to step forward as potential promotion candidates – Shropshire pair Oswestry Town and St Martins each have 100% records after three games – so it is vital that West put cup dreams out of their minds for the next fortnight and continue to rack up league points. The season so far While West were in cup action at Squires Gate, the Lions had a free weekend. They are still looking for their first win of the season after losing at home to Wythenshawe Amateurs on the opening day, then claiming a late draw against arch-rivals Cheadle Town last Monday. Connections Lions winger Jesurun Uchegbulam played six times for West at the back end of the 2018-19 season, scoring in the 4-0 win at Litherland REMYCA. Last time we met Saturday 23rd September 2017, West 4-3 Stockport Town: In our sole competitive meeting to date, ten-man West edged the Lions out of the FA Vase. Mark Rogers saw red just after the break, but Joe Shaw’s double, Nic Evangelinos and Matty Kay’s last-minute winner secured progression. The West team that day: Ashley, Mason, Parr, Tinker, Rogers, Hagon, Steer, Shaw, Bailey, Rydings, Henderson. Subs: Evangelinos, Kay, Simcock, Mendes Gomes, Weston. Saturday’s results Barnton 2-1 Wythenshawe Town Att: 51 Cheadle Heath Nomads 3-0 Ellesmere Rangers Att: 53 Cheadle Town 0-1 St Martins Att: 63 FC Oswestry Town 5-1 Alsager Town Att: 68 Maine Road 1-2 Abbey Hulton United Att: 68 Sandbach United 1-2 Eccleshall Att: 85 Other fixtures Tuesday 13th August Vauxhall Motors v New Mills Wythenshawe Amateurs v Abbey Hey Thank you for visiting Brookburn Road and have a safe journey home Match Report Saturday 10th August Squires Gate 1 (Egidi 90+2) West 4 (Middleton 78, Grimshaw 85)) Att: 79 Resilient West booked an appointment with Stalybridge Celtic with a superb win against familiar FA Cup foes Squires Gate. Both sides struggled to acclimatise to filthy conditions on the Fylde coast in a frayed first period, but West were by far the better team after the break and made the vital breakthrough with two goals in the final 15 minutes. Gate jangled nerves as they pulled a goal back in stoppage time, but the visitors were not to be denied a first win in the FA Cup since 2017. As well as exorcising ghosts of 2016 and 2018’s eliminations at the hands of Gate, this win over a side that finished eighth in the NWCFL top flight last season should send confidence coursing through the veins of Brad Cooke’s side, with tails already up after an unbeaten start to the league campaign. There did, however, seem to be little FA Cup magic dust sprinkled over the Brian Addison Stadium in a windswept first period that ventured on unwatchable. Passes were regularly blown straight out of play in both halves and Ash Woods’ shot over from outside the area was the sum total of West’s efforts in the opening period. Gate had more luck in eking out opportunities but ran aground at the feet of West keeper Andrew Jones, who saved well with his legs on two occasions to keep the scores level at the break. The teams emerged from the sanctuary of the dressing rooms to find the maelstrom had subsided slightly, and a football match emerged from the gloom – the home side threatened first, sending a low shot just past Jones’ near post. But West soon grew to their task and the majority of the action took place at the other end. Matty Boland turned a Kris Holt cross the wrong side of the far post before Woods narrowly failed to connect with a low ball from the same source. Thoughts were drifting to a Tuesday night replay at Brookburn Road, but just as West historians were dusting off their record books to mark a first goalless draw in 152 games, Cooke shuffled his pack decisively – introducing Dylan Moloney and moving Lee Grimshaw into the centre of the attack. Ten minutes later, West were ahead, Matthew Cook winning a free kick on the right wing, Boland delivering, and Chris Middleton powering a header into the net to cause pandemonium in the travelling support. Grimshaw had a shot deflected wide shortly afterwards as West looked for a settler, but the former Prestwich man did get his first goal in black and white with five minutes remaining. Lee Gavin, irrepressible in midfield along with Holt and Josh Tinker, split the Gate defence with a through pass, Grimshaw rolled the ball into the bottom corner and now all roads led to Bower Fold. West’s only disappointment will be that Gate breached their otherwise excellent defence in the second minute of stoppage time, Riccardo Edigi stooping to nod a cross inside the far post. There was time for one more scare as a lobbed effort dropped narrowly off target, but the afternoon belonged to West and the club can now look forward to what promises to be a memorable afternoon on Tameside. West: A. Jones, Cook, Cooper, Tinker (C. Jones 61), Middleton, Eckersley, Grimshaw, Gavin, A. Woods (Moloney 68), Holt, Boland (Steer 88). Not used: Horner, B. Woods. West media team man of the match: Lee Gavin. Match Action - West 1 - 1 Wythenshawe Town Images from our opening home game of the season, where West managed a draw against Wythenshawe Town.

Match sponsors Today’s match sponsor is David Cooper - a committee member who is among a select group of people who has, at some point or another, done almost every role at the club in the past. From goalscoring hero to treasurer, Dave is a West legend - and we’d like to thank him for sponsoring tonight’s game. If you would like to sponsor any home fixture, please visit our sponsorship page on wdcfc.co.uk - we have packages suitable for all budgets, and they are a great way to connect to the local South Manchester community. Our next home fixture is Tuesday 20 August, when we welcome Cheadle Town to Brookburn Road. FA Cup | West to face Stalybridge Celtic (A), Saturday 24 August Following our victory over Squires Gate, West will play Stalybridge Celtic in the FA Cup Preliminary Round, with the tie scheduled to take place on Saturday 24 August at Bower Fold. Stalybridge play in the Northern League Premier Division (3 leagues above West) and would represent a major scalp for West – if we were to get there, and pulled off a shock result. Last season, they finished 17th, two points clear of the relegation zone. In last season’s FA Cup, they were eliminated in their first tie, losing 1-0 away to Radcliffe Borough. In their long and storied history, Stalybridge have twice reached the Second Round Proper (1993-94, and 1999-00) when Carlisle United and Chester City eliminated them. In recent times, they reached the 1st round before being knocked out by Doncaster Rovers in 2015-16.

  • Marine E Programme
    WELCOME! We would like to extend a very warm welcome to our visitors this afternoon as Marine AFC provide the opposition for our first Pitching In Northern Premier League N/West Division Match of the 2020-21 season. The Players, Team Management, Officials and supporters of our opponents are most welcome after making the very long and arduous journey from Crosby in Liverpool. Strangely, Dunston FC travelled to the excellent Marine Travel Arena on the opening day of last season to play our very first Northern Premier League Match and we received a very warm welcome from our hosts. A very good game ensued on a superb playing surface with the game ending as a 1 – 1 draw. The very experienced Niall Cummins opened the scoring for Marine in the first-half and Cedwyn Scott grabbed a late equaliser for Dunston. We made a further trip to Marine at the end of September in the FA Cup and were delighted to leave with a hard-fought 2 – 1 victory thanks to goals by Liam Brooks and Michael Pearson. The return League fixture saw Marine visit the UTS Stadium in the pre-Christmas game with Xmas jumpers the order of the day. A very tight encounter finished goal-less but both Clubs enjoyed the after-match festivities to cement their cordial relationship! We also extend a warm welcome to our Match Officials this afternoon, Derek Burrows who travels from Sunderland and his Assistant Referees Simon Williamson from North Shields and Stephen Birkett from Peterlee. Our FA Match Observer is Brian Parry who also comes from Peterlee.

  • The New Herald Crumpsall Concert Band
    ‘Hark the CCB Herald’ THE NEW HERALD Newsletter of CRUMPSALL CONCERT BAND Volume 3 Issue 1 25th September 2020 (FC) United We Stand Welcome to a new Volume of your New Herald to mark the start of the 2020/21 banding season. The beginning of this season is like no other the band – along with many similar outfits - has encountered, as the global pandemic shows no sign of abating and we all face the prospect of enhanced restrictions as we play our part in the fight to defeat Covid-19. As a band, I believe that, so far, throughout theses strangest of times, we have developed a collective and mutually supportive resolve. As a result, I am grateful and proud of all our members and supporters, believing that ultimately, we will all get through this and make music in a united manner once again. A significant step on this journey is about to unfold as we look towards a return to rehearsals (outdoors only at this stage with full details in this issue) for those that wish or are able to, starting next Wednesday, 30th September. Along with Committee colleagues, we fully understand, and respect, members wishes and concerns about whether to return or not. As a Committee it is part of our role to provide the option in as safe and Covid-secure manner as is possible in response to wishes expressed in the member questionnaire earlier this month. Ultimately then, the decision is personal to each member and their circumstances and this will always remain the case. This is an important step for the band and whether you attend or not we are all in this together and like with our lockdown recordings, whether you played on them or not, anything that happens in our name is inclusive and representative of the band as a whole.
