budget withdrawn to keep the club going, the chairman resign, two mangers leave
and ended with the club being relegated!
Since then though the Chairman and committee has worked very hard to bring
stability back to the club and de spite some dark moments the team remain in the
First Division.
Today: Season 2022/23 was a particularly difficult one for the Club. Despite
reaching the play-offs at the end of the previous season most of the squad decided
to play their football elsewhere. That and the late appointment of the new
Management Team of Ray Johnston, Elliot Gibbons and Ian Lanning had to start
the season with a makeshift eleven, however, hard work and team spirit saw the
team stay competitive throughout the campaign. Scroll on a year and after a
positive summer the same management team and supporters are optimistic that
this season will see us battling at the right end of the table!
After winning the League last season the Reserves will be led this year by Anthony
Morrison, Taylor Morrison and Bob Johnston following the resignation of Liam
Watson. Our very successful Under 18s will once again be in the very capable hands
of Ian Lanning and James Purnell.
