History

The history of our club begins in the years just before the start of the Second World War.
A.V.Roe established an aircraft factory at Chadderton, which was situated in fields at the end of
Moston Lane in North Manchester. The factory would become the home of the famed
‘Dambusters’ aircraft – the Avro Lancaster, as well as the famous Cold War ‘V’ bomber - the Avro
Vulcan. A.V Roe purchased a smaller factory in Failsworth, where the Lancaster Club was
located. 1936 saw the 16th century Lodge purchased by the AVRO works manager Mr Roy
Dobson prior to the company opening their main Chadderton factory. In 1950, the Lodge was
opened up to all personnel of Avro and took on the Lancaster Club name. The Grade II listed
Lancaster Club then became the clubs headquarters for the next 67 years. We joined the
Manchester League in 1954/55 season and won the Division 1 Championship in 1988/89 and re-
established our junior teams, but lasted just three seasons in the Premier Division before being
relegated in 1991/92. We again won Division 1 in 2003/04 and promotion to the Premier Division,
but we were again relegated after three seasons in 2006/07. We bounced back immediately and
were back in the Premier Division in 2008/09. There followed success with us capturing the
Manchester League Premier Division title in in 2009/10. By this time Oldham Council had bought
the Lancaster Club land from Oldham Athletic FC who had purchased it as part of a plan to build
a new stadium on the site, which never materialised. After a lot of hard work and lots of meetings
on the part of our Chairman Rob Fuller, we were granted a lease on the former Whitebank
Stadium in Limehurst Village, Oldham. Again, after an enormous amount of work to bring it up to
standard, this has become our new home ground ; The Vestacare Stadium. In Summer 2017 the
new management team of Lee O’Brien and James Hampson took over and along with 1st team
coach Paul Armstrong and goalkeeping coach Paul Urbano they led the team to Manchester
League Premier Division title, and the Manchester FA County Cup in their first season. The move
to the new stadium has allowed the club to pursue its ambitions of Step 6 football which was
achieved in 2018 with promotion to the NWCFL Division 1 North. In our first season in NWCFL
we reached the semi-final of the Macron Cup, and the final of the First Division Cup, as well as
reaching the 3rd Round Proper of the FA Vase. In the league we finished runners-up to
Longridge Town and were promoted as one of the highest points per game clubs in the country.
Our first season in the NWCFL Premier Division 2019/20 saw us consolidate and finish a
respectable 12th position after 30 games, the season being curtailed by the Corona Virus
outbreak of course. We also made a first appearance in the FA Cup, losing to Litherland
REMYCA. In the curtailed 2020/21 the team finished on Boxing Day top of the Premier Division
after some excellent performances, particularly away from home. The FA Cup ended in a defeat
at home to Bootle after a performance that very nearly took the Merseysiders to penalties.
The 2020/21 season was curtailed yet again, with Avro sitting top of the Premier Division when the football was sropped. Finally we completed a full season in 2021/22 and we finished a respectable 6th place with some memorable victories including West Didsbury & Chorlton in the FA Cup and Macclesfield in the league. Lee O'Brien and James Hampson our management team who had guided us through from the Manchester League and NWCFL Division North to the Premier Division made the decision to leave the club in Februrary 2022. The club moved quickly and appointed Alex Frost as new manager along with his assistant Phil Edghill. Everyone is looking forward to seeing the new management team make their mark.
