CAPTAINKev HELLO, EVERYONE. Vans Cars Pickup trucks I was really chuffed for Phil Turnbull when he scored from £99pm from £89pm from £183pm in our last home game against Gloucester City. If anyone deserved to score a goal, then it was Twinny. He’s not the type of player who gets forward a lot, because his role is more of playing in front of the defence, and as he has said many a time, his job isn’t to score goals. It was Twinny who actually broke up their move on the edge of our penalty area and sent Carts away down the right, and I remember urging Twinny to keep going up the middle. 100s of brand new vehicles in stock And when Carts played the ball back to him, I was * really hoping that he would score – and what a finish past their keeper!

    Partnership, Sponsorship 20/21 Season & Advertising Opportunities Stockport County FC Founded in 1883, we’re one of the country’s most established football clubs. Based at Edgeley Park in the heart of Stockport’s community since 1902. As well as success on the pitch, the club has won a raft of national community awards, an enviable reputation in the game, and an army of young supporters. After becoming Champions of the Vanarama National League North in 2018- 19, last season saw the club finish 7th but were denied a play-off spot due to a points per game resolution brought in by Covid-19.

  • TT1112-133 TT No.133: Andy Gallon
    TT1112-133 TT No.133: Andy Gallon - Sun 1st January 2012; Stockport County v Barrow; Conference National; Res: 3-2; Att: 3,301 (341 away); Admission: £16; Programme: £3 (68pp); FGIF Match Rating: *****. It is a crying shame that Edgeley Park never having looked so good coincides with impoverished Stockport County being at their lowest ebb. Yet another Northern club to lose Football League status, the unhappy Hatters, their century-plus membership of the elite curtailed abruptly last May, are enduring an utterly miserable debut season in Conference National. This victory, barely deserved, was only their fourth in 27 league games. No wonder County’s long-suffering fans, several of whom around us had clearly become embittered by the struggles and disappointments of recent seasons, were so overjoyed to hear the final whistle. Terminal decline cannot be much fun. The tip-top upkeep of Edgeley Park owes at least as much to the presence of Sale Sharks rugby union club as the efforts of County, who are now very much the junior partner in a long-standing sharing arrangement. Rugby union, certainly at the top level, appears to be awash with cash, and Edgeley Park, all-seated these days, has benefited accordingly. County might have begun the transformation, but Sale ensure the good work does not go to waste. The well-heeled types who tend to watch rugby union will not (on the whole) tolerate the inadequate facilities found so frequently away from the apex of football’s pyramid. Everywhere you look at Edgeley Park is spick and span. Acres of blue paint and ranks of blue seats tie together very neatly the ground’s four disparate stands.
