Bits and Pieces
Thu 11th August 2016 | Bits & Pieces | By Gary Langley
The league got off to a busy start this week with an eclectic mix of League and Cup action and as usual some interesting things are going on.
Starting with the League itself, on Saturday @SRBMUFC become the leagues 10,000th 'Follower' on Twitter and as a result netted two tickets for a game of his choice in recognition of the feat. We have been developing our presence on Social Media and have been getting more active on all forms of it, so we are delighted for all concerned.
The League's Sticker Collecting hunt began for many over the weekend with a number of clubs reporting issuing all of their albums. The initiative has been really well received and we have ordered more albums from the supplier, so look out for tired looking postmen near club offices soon.
Congleton Town - the Bears have announced that Fairerpower, the energy scheme launched by Cheshire East Council last year with great success, have renewed their sponsorship of the club for a second season.
Nigel Moorhouse, Director of Congleton Town FC added: “We are delighted to be partnering with Fairerpower in such a great initiative and scheme that will help our supporters, their friends, families and the wider community save money on their energy expenses and we look forward to developing this partnership further over the coming seasons”.
1874 Northwich and Winsford United - The two clubs in conjunction with Thor Specialities (UK) have announced a joint initiative in supporting St Luke's (Cheshire) Hospice for the next two seasons.
The concept will see Thor Specialities ( UK) Limited securing the naming rights to the Barton Stadium which will now be known as the St Luke's Barton Stadium with the aim of promoting St Luke's (Cheshire) hospice across the wider community.
In addition to which, 1874 Northwich F.C are pleased to announce St Luke’s (Cheshire) hospice as their chosen charity partner for the next two years and will work with the hospice as part of their outreach programme in supporting the local community.
Both 1874 Northwich F.C and Winsford United F.C will engage in various fund raising activities in aid of the hospice over the next two seasons including the organisation of bucket collections at the Landlord v Tenant league matches.
The final element to this partnership will see Thor Specialities (UK) Limited provide a waterproof pitch cover to 1874 Northwich F.C to be used at the St Luke's Barton stadium to assist with pitch maintenance and help reduce the number of games that have been called off in recent seasons due to heavy rain.
Atherton Laburnum Rovers - Atherton LR have been boosted recently by a rather unique donation. Former player Chris Mulcahy who is with Green Dale Pitch Maintenance has donated a tractor to the Crilly Park side! Speaking this week, Manager Shaun Lynch stated that "It's agreat item to get in and it will help us keep costs down around the club and the pitch in better nick!"
On that note, we will plough on until next week! Don't forget, if your club has any news items that you would like to see featured, no matter how small, get them to us at Mediateam@nwcfl.com
