FA Vase Winners: 2002, 2009, 2010, 2011 WHITLEY BAY FC BW3 Welcome to Hillheads WHITLEY BAY v BILLINGHAM SYNTHONIA STL NORTHERN LEAGUE FIRST DIVISION Saturday 12th November 2011
Good afternoon and welcome to Hillheads Park for today’s STL Northern League game against Billingham Synthonia. I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all players, officials and supporters of Billingham Synthonia and I hope they enjoy their afternoon with us. The Synners ended our unbeaten start to the season with a 3-1 success on Teesside last month, since when we have struggled for consistency, suffering some very disappointing defeats, most recently at South Shields on Tuesday night. Synthonia have also had mixed fortunes this season but their away form is impressive so there can be no doubt that we are in for another tough game today. LeePaul Scroggins misses today’s game through suspension but his absence is countered by the return from injury of Paul Robinson, who came off the bench for the last 20 minutes on Tuesday. Both sides will be looking for a good performance today in preparation for the FA Vase games next weekend. We have both been drawn at home next Saturday but while we face new opponents in Tadcaster Albion, Synners have an all Northern League clash with Second Division Crook Town. Before then, we make the short journey to Bedlington on Monday evening to take on a Terriers side who have scored 18 goals in their last four home games, yet another hard game!

Late defensive lapses cost Whitley dear after they had created sufficient chances to win the game but due in part to an inspired goalkeeping display, they failed to finish off good approach work. The Moor Lane pitch was soft after heavy overnight rain, and combined with the length of the grass it made for a deceptively slippery surface. Whitley looked the better side in an entertaining first half, when both teams created chances but were denied by a combination of top quality defending and goalkeeping.

BW10 A brief history of Whitley Bay Football Club
1970’s The early 1970’s saw Bay’s successes continue with the League Cup being won in 1970/71, and the County Cup in 1970/71 and 1972/73. With the demise of amateur football the Club’s fortunes took a nosedive, culminating in them havin g to apply for re-election to the League in 1979/80. 1980’s In 1987/88, with fortunes rising, the club joined the Northern Premier League. In 1989/90 the Bay had their best ever run in the FA Cup, when they reached the 3rd Round, going down 1-0 at Rochdale, after a 1-0 win at then League side Scarborough, and in the 2nd Round defeating former winners Preston North End 2-0 in front of the BBC Match of the Day cameras. 1990’s The following season Whitley won not only the First Division Cup for the second time but also the Championship and promotion to the Premier Division. They finished in 11th spot in the 1993/94 season, their best position in the Premier Division. A decline in fortunes followed during the later 90’s and in 2000 Whitley were relegated back to the Northern League. 2000’s A new century marked the beginning of the most successful period in the club’s history as they rose to national prominence with record breaking achievements in the FA Vase. The 2001/02 season proved to be one of the most memorable in the clubs’ history when in only their second season in the competition and against all expectations they won the FA Vase at Villa Park, thanks to a spectacular Ian Chandler header in extra tim e against their Eastern League opponents Tiptree United. With expectations high, things didn’t go to plan the following season 1950’s and only 12 months after leading the team to Vase glory, The present Whitley Bay Football Club was formed in 1950 and Manager Andy Gowens resigned. was known as Whitley Bay Athletic.
