Silsden – the Cobbydalers have taken delivery of a new multi-purpose pre-fab building, which will be used for match day catering and hospitality, as well as for the junior teams to use when the club house is unavailable due to private hire. An outdoor children’s play area and decking for parents to sit out and watch their children is also being planned at the Angel Telecom Stadium.
West Didsbury & Chorlton – West had some unexpected visitors for their FA Vase tie against Barton Town Old Boys, with four fans from Hamburg in Germany making their way to Brookburn Road for the game.
The four were associated with a German amateur club FC Alu, and bought West scarves, programmes and badges to commemorate their visit and promised to come back if they were ever in the area again.
1874 Northwich - the Greens skipper Neil Chappell has informed the club that he has decided to retire from football to spend more time with his family. Neil made the switch to the Barton Stadium after a long association with Maine Road in the summer of 2014.
Chadderton – the club’s academy team has had four players from the squad called up for the Manchester County Under 18s squad to face Durham. Jack Snape, Reece Axon, Levi Simic and Ben Matthews are all members of a squad that made a great start to the season in the North West Youth Alliance League.
Alsager Town – it was the end of an era recently when Vice-Chairman John Shenton stepped down from the role of Programme Editor. John has had the role both at Alsager and previous club Biddulph Victoria since season 1992-93, and in his own words thinks “it’s time I had a rest from it”. Dave Proudlove takes over the programme editing duties from John.
Nelson – the club’s Junior Academy is up and running once more, taking place every Saturday morning at Nelson and Colne College. The Academy is part of the club’s commitment to promoting sport and wellbeing in the local community and has proved hugely popular so far.
Whitchurch Alport - Tuesday 27th October sees a League first, as Alport become the first ever NWCFL club to take part in the Shropshire FA Senior Cup when they travel to face Shifnal Town.
Litherland REMYCA - Remy have organised a race night at Lakeside, Crosby Marina on Saturday 24th October with a 7.30 pm start. Tickets are only £2, and available from the club shop or from club officials.
Barnoldswick Town - tickets are selling fast for the club's Sportsman's Evening on the Thursday 29th October at the Silentnight Stadium. The main speaker is former Hull City and Bradford City striker Dean Windass, who scored the winning goal for Hull in the 2008 Championship play off final, and the comedian on the night will be Pete Emmett. Remaining tickets are available from the club, priced at £25, which includes a pie and peas supper with apple pie and cream to follow.
Also, this coming Saturday, Barlick are offering free admission to anyone who presents a season ticket from a Football League club at the turnstiles, for the game at home to AFC Liverpool.
