Amateur Community Football Club from Ramsey, IoM. Looking to rebuild our clubhouse after it was demolished 10+ years ago. Donations welcomed contact for details
Today we remember ex player and all round lovely guy Conall Hughes. Sadly Conall lost his battle with cancer earlier this month. Conall played for us during 2010-2012 and was part of our promotion side. “Conall Star Jumps” are still a thing at training, he will be sorely missed.
We just wanted to congratulate former Youthie man,
@murkyniall
, for scoring the 120th min winner for
@MarineAFC
to see them into the 3rd round of the FA Cup where they’ll face
@SpursOfficial
!
We could not be prouder of Niall and made up for all his family!

We have regrettably learnt of the tragic news of Fraser Vaughan’s passing. Fraser was part of our u17s team that won the league.
It was a pleasure to see him at our club even for a brief time.

Yesterday was tough being defeated in the final but during the game I heard about the Christian Eriksen cardiac arrest which, while I was stood watching our game next to the defib, really put all into perspective.

Unfortunately Jed Fisher during the game was injured. We’ve just found out he has a punctured lung and broken rib and will miss the final.
Speedy recovery Jed. We are all gutted for him as he has had a great season and it’s such a shame he will miss our last game.

On another note. It’s been a really tough season for us this time around.
These young lads that are representing the club have stuck with us, often been thrown into the deep end, and have been facing strong 1st division sides.
So this is what they deserve.
🖤💙
Big thanks to all the guys who came down and helped construct our new goals this evening in anticipation for our first home game of the season!!
@ManxFootyPod
First take bragging rights with a 2-1 over Ramsey AFC.
It was a tight game all the way through but really can’t fault any of the effort, a proper hard fought win.
Goals from Daniel Sherry and own goal from Ryan Williamson.

Great effort all season regardless what happens. Given the players we lost and depleted squad we have everyone should be proud for proving the doubters wrong again.

We’ve had a night to reflect.
Well done to all guys who have played Combi this season. We must’ve had the oldest Combi squad. Experience shows sometimes but it’s not over yet, we are still unbeaten and want it to stay that way!
