Dorset Senior Cup 1st Round Fixtures 3 Nov Poole Town vs Shaftesbury T 4 Nov Swanage & H vs Hamworthy U Wimborne T vs Gillingham T Sherborne T vs Bridport History of Weymouth F.C. Weymouth Football Club was founded in 1890 and will be celebrating their 125th anni- versary next year. Formed as an amateur club the club is nicknamed "The Terras" due to the terra-cotta and blue quartered shirts they originally wore. The club's impact on Dor- set's football scene was immediate and we won the Dorset Junior Cup for the first three seasons, prompting the Dorset FA to re-classify us as a senior club. After winning the Western League Championship in 1923, the club joined the Southern League and adopted professionalism. However financial difficulties led to the club re- turning to amateur status and the Western League in 1928. After the Second War the club were forced to start again, in the Western League Divi- sion 2, gaining promotion in 1948 and then third place in Division 1 the following year. Weymouth returned to the Southern League for the 1949-50 season and remained until becoming founder members of the Alliance in 1979-80, finishing as run- ners-up in the inaugural season. The Terras became Southern League Champions in 1964-65 and 1965-66. Weymouth have enjoyed considerable FA Cup success: in 1949 they became Manchester United's first FA Cup opponents back at Old Trafford after the War and were not dis- graced in a 0-4 defeat, in the 3rd round. In 1962 we reached the Fourth round before los- ing 0-2 away at Preston North End. In 1987 the club moved from its harbourside Recreation Ground to the Wessex Stadium and - for a while - it looked as if promotion to the Football League would materialize. After coming close, however, the club were relegated back to the Southern League (1989) - and even lower - before returning to the Premier Division in 1997. Following a succession of seasons treading water, the club was taken over in 2004 and a new board of directors installed as player-manager with a mission to bring success to the club. Galvanising club and town, with league attendances averaging 1490, Claridge led the Terras to runners-up spot in his first season and promotion to the Nationwide South League. The club returned to full time professionalism in 2005 and celebrated with the Nationwide South title at the end of that season. Our initial season back in the Conference resulted in an 11th place finish, but the club struggled the following season before being led to safety by manager . His tenure ended at the start of 2008 and Alan Lewer became manager in January 2009. At the start of 2009 Weymouth's financial difficulties surfaced, leading to the resignation of chairman Curtis. Former chairman Ian Ridley replaced him in March and - days later - Lewer was replaced by former Welsh manager . Despite his experience the club was relegated, having only gained a single point since the majority of the first team had walked out in February. In May the club brought in Matty Hale - a popular ex-player - as their new manager, with another ex-player Ian Hutchinson as his assistant. After a disappointing start to the 2009-10 season Hale stepped down and Hutchinson was appointed caretaker manager. Following months of financial problems and near liquidation, the club was taken over by George Rolls at the end of November 2009. After defeat by City in mid Jan- uary 2010 Hutchinson was dismissed - followed by his assistant Andy Mason - and re- placed by ex-Birmingham City player Jerry Gill. However Gill only lasted 44 days before he resigned leaving assistant Andy Harris in charge. History of Weymouth F.C. Cont’d At the end of the 2009-10 season the club were relegated from the Blue Square South to the Zamaretto Premier League. Ian Hutchinson and Andy Mason returned to the club at the beginning of the following season with the task of rebuilding the Terras' squad on a vastly reduced budget. After two post Christmas defeats Hutchinson was again relieved of his duties and succeeded by the vastly experienced Martyn Rogers, a former success- ful manager of Tiverton Town and ex-Weymouth player. Rogers successfully steered the club away from the relegation places, but was not award- ed a contract for the 2010-11 season as the club appointed local man (and another ex player) Brendon King to the manager's role with Mattie Groves as his assistant. In February 2012 a consortium of local men and club supporters, led by current Chair- man Nigel Biddlecombe, were able to buy the club and set about trying to both stabilize the Terras and lead its recovery. After a good 9th place finish in 2012-13 results were disappointing as 2013-14 got going and King paid the price when he was replaced by the club's vastly experienced goalkeeper Jason Matthews, initially as caretaker, who has tak- en to the mantle of player-manager with fantastic enthusiasm. Jason certainly made his mark during his first season in charge but the Terras fell agonising short missing out on the play-offs after being well placed at Christmas. With the club now stabilized off the field Matthews has been working hard to get things right on it and we are confident of a reasonable season as we prepare for the celebration of our 125th birthday this year.
