    Clitheroe 4-1

    Thought there was a slight improvement in terms of attacking intent but then we still created very little. We were all over the place in defence I’m afraid and Clitheroe had enough chances to score 7 or 8 easily. Young Shorthouse in goal had a fine match and made a number of great saves to keep...

    Midlands Watch 23/24

    Congleton promoted as champions from the Midland League. Vics beaten 2-1 in the Mid Cheshire Cup final by Witton. *I see our posts have crossed, Stephen!

    One advantage of us going down is we don’t have to go there twice!

    1874 News New First Team Manager – Welcome Chris Herbert

    Think we all need to try and be positive and get behind the new manager. We have had a difficult season and this appointment gives us a real boost ahead of a new chapter in the Midland League. Chris’s record looks impressive and let’s now give him the summer and a good few games into next...

    Meeting at Barnton tonight ?

    Bootle today

    A similar story to most of our season being honest. We did okay for about an hour and grabbed an equaliser but after they got the second, we crumbled I’m afraid with some good finishing from them aided by poor defending. Bootle’s superior attacking quality showed in the end. We again created...

    Meeting at Barnton tonight ?

    Great to read of news that an experienced manager is soon to be appointed and that there is an aim to get back up to Step 4. Feeling a lot more positive for next season and the future now!

    Witton 3-0 & relegation confirmed

    To be fair, I thought the crowd of 902 on Monday was decent. The game didn’t have the same level of promotion as ours on Boxing Day and we didn’t take as many there as what Witton did to us. The attendance was higher than both Derby Day gates last season. Atmosphere wise, it’s a lot better than...

    Witton 3-0 & relegation confirmed

    I just wanted to say it’s really quite heartening reading all the well-wishes on social media from various clubs, fans and ex players following our relegation. There are some lovely comments and it really does just go to show the high regard our club has in the non league community and that is...

    Witton 3-0 & relegation confirmed

    A sad day for the club but I think we all knew this was coming unfortunately. We have been very poor for 18 months now. Lost too many good players and not replaced them. I hope now that we can reset, get the right manager in and build a squad capable of challenging for promotion. Sometimes in...

    1874 News Newcastle Town Matchday Programme

    Agree with that, James. The standard of the league really isn’t great and you don’t need anything special to do okay. With the exception of Leek, I’ve not seen a good side this season. Which says a lot about us well adrift at the bottom of the table. I don’t buy into the idea that we ‘can’t...

    1874 News First Team Manager Position

    Not quite worked out for him this season (it happens) but he’s been there four years and has a decent record (10th and 8th in this league in the past two seasons), as well as his experience of managing Newcastle and Chasetown. I think a manager of his calibre dropping down to the Midlands would...

    1874 News First Team Manager Position

    Great shout that with his experience, contacts and knowledge of the Midlands area if he was interested.

    NPL Watch 23/24

    Trafford’s draw away at Bootle means we’d be effectively relegated with defeat against Newcastle tomorrow as our goal difference is vastly inferior. Appreciate second from bottom will likely get a reprieve.
