Ryan Forde receives his paxsport Goalkeeper of the Month Award
Tue 9th December 2025 | League Awards | By Martin Fallon
Wythenshawe Goalkeeper Ryan Forde was presented with his Premier Division paxsport Goalkeeper of the Month award for September 2025 at one of Wythenshawe's recent home games. League Director Martin Fallon took a trip to the Avensure Community Stadium and he is pictured presenting Ryan with his award prior to the game.
Its the first time Ryan has won this award, and the first for Wythenshawe since Kyle Haslam won it in March 2014.
Ryan came through at National League side Altrincham, playing one game for Avro in the Manchester Cup in 2021. His first club in the NWCFL was Alsager Town who he played for in 2022/23 before moving to Cheadle Heath Nomads at the start of 2023/24. He remained at Cheadle for two seasons until moving to Wythenshawe at the start of this season.
September started for Ryan with a 3-0 loss at Ramsbottom United, a day to forget for all at Wythenshawe. The next game though saw him keep a clean sheet - his sixth of the season already - in a 3-0 win over Barnoldswick Town.
He then made several key stops in the 3-1 win over Abbey Hey, and in the third game of the month at home to AFC Liverpool, he made a great reflex save from 6 yards out to deny AFC Liverpool doubling their lead, which led to a great second half comeback in another 3-1 win.
A second clean sheet came in a 1-0 win at FC St Helens. Whilst he did not win Man of the Match, he made four great saves including ‘a blinding reflex save’ which secured the three points for his team.
Two became three in a 5-0 win at New Mills in the Macron Cup, with Ryan rounding off an excellent month with his fourth clean sheet in six games as Wythenshawe won 2-0 at Irlam.
Six games, four clean sheets and just five goals conceded earn Ryan this award for September.
Congratulations to Ryan on his Award!
