Re-established in 2007; Men’s senior football club. Sat (PM) Northern Alliance Division one, Sun (AM) Cramlington League Premier Division & Mon (PM) Over 35s
Literally, the very last minute of a Cup Final, having fought back from 3-0 down at half time to 3-3.
Whatever the level, It does not get much better than this surely?

Imagine being gifted your place in the top division & promising you’re going to do things ‘right’ yet the best you can do is disrespect some proper clubs (with full history and for no reason) when it’s taken you 5 years and thousands in player wages to win the league… 🤮

Footballs officially gone!!
Why?
£250k a week wages? ❌
Players on strike to force moves? ❌
VAR? ❌
A Player being unavailable because they need to attend their Sisters’ ‘baby gender reveal’ ✅
That’s it, fold the club, end the game! 🤦🏻♂️

-) He’s been tested, it’s negative (see below)
-) He smokes at least 40 a day, probably in his sleep as well to be honest

Rather than announcing signings during the ‘January transfer window’ it seems we’re announcing new Rigglets instead!

In line with what a lot of other local grassroots clubs, if there’s a child, either in the area who’ll go hungry without their free school meal this half term, please contact the club and we’ll do what we can.

@henton7
made his 350th (and final, for now at least) club appearance.
Most players barely make 50 at a club, he joined us in the second season, had a year out not long ago too, tremendous effort.
Cheers Stevie son ♥️👍⚽️
