WELCOME TO THE SETT From the Chairman …

As Chairman of Bugbrooke St Michael’s Football Club I would like to offer you a warm welcome to The Sett and hope that you have an enjoyable visit.

Here at Bugbrooke St Michaels we are working hard to develop a club with a strong inclusive ethos, offering opportunities for players of all ages and abilities.

We are extremely proud of our youth development programme, supporting players from seven all the way up to eighteen. Many of our young players go on to have success with one of adult teams, with some players going on to even bigger and better things!

There is a great wealth of local support for the club, everyone that helps does so on a voluntary basis and through everyone’s hard work and dedication we have been able to achieve and maintain FA Accredited status.

Whilst some clubs choose to reinvest their revenue into players wages, here at Bugbrooke we hold a different set of values. All of our profits go into upgrading our equipment and facilities, building a solid future-proof foundation that will be here for future generations to enjoy.

Whilst this can sometimes hold us back from gaining huge success on the pitch, we feel our excellent facilities, youth development programme and ethos on community set us apart from other clubs.

Success and progression starts from the beginnings.

Thank you for your support today, we hope that you enjoy the game, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Kev Kevin Gardner, Chairman

Bugbrooke St Michaels Football Club would like to place on record our thanks to our team of volunteers, our advertisers and sponsors.

MANAGERS NOTES We’d like to extend a warm welcome to the players, officials and supporters of Newport Pagnell Town who are the visitors to the Sett for this evenings United Counties Premier Division South fixture.

Our opponents need no introduction as despite being under new management and having undergone a major overhaul of their playing squad during the summer, they remain a formidable opponent at this level.

They go into this evening’s game holding a 3-point advantage at the top of the table with nine wins from their opening ten fixtures. In fact, their only defeat to date came way back on the opening day of the season, a 1-0 reversal against March Town United.

Having reached the FA Vase final at Wembley in successive seasons and going close in the league they will certainly have an eye on promotion come the end of the season.

A tough assignment on paper however we believe in our own ability. On our day we are a match for anyone in this division as was proven last season when we travelled to Newport Pagnell and picked up a fantastic win thanks to ‘that goal’ from Will Glennon.

Night games are always special at the Sett and whilst Will is no longer with us, we hope that someone else can be the hero tonight!

Since our last home game, we have managed to add Carter Price to the group.

Ironically, he has joined us from this evening’s opponents. Carter brings quality and experience at this level, and we have already seen a positive impact.

We go into this evening’s game on the back of a ‘professional’ performance against Spartan League side Raunds Town in the FA Vase, 2-0 the winning margin thanks to another goal for Calvin Green and a first in the First Team for Levon Stewart, a young player with a prolific scoring record for the Under 18s.

On the subject of the Under 18s it was another special night in the FA Youth Cup last week. The boys made the trip to Stotfold and came out on top in a five-goal thriller, that man Levon Stewart scoring a hat-trick including an injury time winner.

Next up is a tie at Hayden Road against NSYL rivals AFC Rushden & Diamonds.

Elsewhere across the club its great to see the Reserves continuing to pick up positive results, the ‘B’ Team have also made an excellent start to the season as have the Ladies team. In fact, last weekend all four of our senior teams recorded wins, it’s been a while since that happened although is testament to the direction of travel across the club.

On a sad note, we can’t sign off without mentioning Reserve Team skipper Jimmy Moore who has taken the decision to retire. A fantastic servant to the club, Jimmy is a class act and an even better person, and whilst regrettable we respect your decision, thanks for everything Jimmy, once a Badger, always a Badger.

Thank you for your support, enjoy the game and we look forward to seeing you again on Saturday when we welcome GNG Oadby Town to the Sett.

OUR HISTORY

Formed in 1929, Bugbrooke St. Michael’s Football Club took over from Bugbrooke United who folded in 1928 after being in existence since 1910.

The club, which is named after the local St. Michael’s and All Angels Church, initially took its place in the Northants Central Village League and had immediate success, winning the league title from 1931 to 1937.

The club closed for the Second World War before reforming in 1947 and were once again successful winning the CVL title from 1947 to 1950 and were Northants Lower Junior Cup runners-up in 1949, a feat repeated in 1954.

We finally won the N.F.A. Lower Junior Cup in 1956 and followed this in 1957 by winning the prestigious Daventry Charity Cup. The club had its most successful years from 1966 to 1972 when we won the Northants Central Combination Premier title and again from 1976 to 1979 with 1977 also seeing us win the N.F.A. Lower Junior Cup again.

The club continued to succeed in the Northants Combination until 1987 when the we took the decision to join the United Counties League.

At this time, we decided to run two teams in the U.C.L. and two teams in the C.N.C. We also began our youth section and have continued this ever since. Today we run 4 adult sides, including a recently formed Ladies team as well as 15 youth teams.

The club has had continued to enjoy success across all age groups over those 30 years, the most notable being N.F.A. Junior Cup winners in 1992, N.F.A Lower Junior Cup in 1993 and U.C.L. Division One winners in 2001.

The reputation for producing successful youth teams has increased over those years and 4 of our youth players (under 16) have been signed by professional league clubs.

The achievements of the club on the field have always been supported by a hardworking committee whose chief officers are recorded on a roll in the clubhouse foyer.

They along with supporters of the club have built up the excellent changing rooms and clubhouse since 1980.

We hope that you enjoy the facilities that they have provided over those years, and we look forward to seeing you again in the future

‘LOVE FOOTBALL. PROTECT THE GAME.’ A message from Bugbrooke St Michaels Football Club about antisocial and criminal behaviour As we commence the new season we want to make you aware of new measures being taken across all of football, and the NLS, to ensure everyone can have a safe and enjoyable experience.

We are supporting strong action from the FA, and across the NLS to tackle antisocial and criminal behaviours that put all of us at risk.

Please remember the following activities are illegal, dangerous, have serious consequences and have no place in our game: • Carrying or using smoke bombs or pyros • Invading the pitch or entering the pitch without permission

For everyone’s safety, we will report anyone carrying out these offences to the police, which can result in a criminal record.

Anyone who enters the pitch without permission and those carrying or using smoke bombs or pyros will now receive an automatic club ban. These measures could also now apply to the parents or guardians of children involved in these activities.

This reflects the seriousness of the risks to fans and staff – pyros can burn at 2000 degrees Celsius and cause life changing injuries, while entering the pitch endangers players, managers and match officials. It also impacts the hard working volunteers, who ensure that our special part of the game continues to run.

• Drug use within the football ground

We know those who commit these illegal acts do not represent the majority of supporters. Please work with us to call out the risks.

• Discriminatory behaviour

In 1964 they entered the North Bucks League and won Division 3 in the first season. Soon after that they won the North Bucks Division 2 and Division 1 titles in consecutive years and then dominated the North Bucks League for three seasons.

In the 1971-72 season the Wanderers joined the South Midlands League, using facilities at the Youth Club in Wolverton Road. Then in 1972 they finally moved to the new facilities at the Willen Road Sports ground, their current home. With this move the club changed its name to Newport Pagnell Town.

The 1973-74 season saw Newport Pagnell Town join Division 2 of the United Counties League. Two years later they were promoted to Division 1, where they stayed until they won the Division 1 Championship in 1981-82 and were promoted to the Premier Division.

A few ups and down followed during the next two decades: relegated to Division 1 after finishing bottom of the Premier Division in 1985-86, promoted back to the Premier Division as Division 1 runners up in 1991-92, and then relegated again in 1996-97.

After once more winning the Division 1 championship in 2001-02, Newport Pagnell Town were back in the Premier Division again and have remained there ever since.

The clubs most consistent spell saw five consecutive top six finishes in the UCL Premier Division from 2008-09 to 2012-13, with third place achieved in 2008-09 and again in 2010-11.

The 2009-10 season brought cup success, winning the Berks & Bucks Senior Trophy, which they won again the following year. They were also runners up in the UCL League Cup in 200910.

The 2009-10 season brought cup success, winning the Berks & Bucks Senior Trophy, which they won again the following year. They were also runners up in the UCL League Cup in 200910.

The club twice reached the First Qualifying Round of the FA Cup, in 2010-11 and again in 2012-13, when they memorably scored 6 goals in both the Extra Preliminary Round and the Preliminary Round.

The best cup achievement to date was reaching the last 32 of the FA Vase in 2011-12 before losing a close match 3-2 to Ashington, from Northumberland, in front of a club record crowd of over 600 at Willen Road on what was probably the biggest day in the club’s history.

The 2013-14 season was less successful, a case of building the squad after losing several first team players to retirement or to clubs at a higher level, but some good performances towards the end of the season ensured that the team retained its Premier Division place for 2014-15.

In 2021–22 the club won the FA Vase, defeating Littlehampton Town 3–0 in the final at Wembley Stadium. They reached the final again the following season but lost 1–0 to Ascot United.

In addition to the first team Newport Pagnell Town now has Reserves and Under 18 teams and an extensive and successful youth section. From small beginnings in 1963, it has now become the largest placed non-league club in the Milton Keynes area.

” The Bolt” Most people are aware of the Catenaccio. Helenio Herrera’s creation, an exceptional defensive system, came to dominate European football in the 1960s, and defined Italian football for half a century. But, as with all great ideas, Herrera was building on what came before. While everyone from World Cup winners Brazil to the Hungarian Golden Team - statistically the greatest team to have ever played the game - were trying to find a way to score more goals, Karl Rappan was working out a way to prevent them. The Austian’s impact on the game can still be felt, nearly ninety years after he invented the Verrou.

Rappan was born in Vienna in 1905 and given an impeccable football upbringing. A promising forward, he initially signed for Wacker Vienna in 1924, where he stayed for four years, before joining Autria Wien. The team, still implementing the principles laid down by the legendary Hugo Meisl, was a perfect breeding ground for tactical innovation. When Rappan was called up to the national side, managed by Meisl himself, that footballing brain just grew bigger. In 1930, he crossed the Alps into Switzerland, to take the reins as playermanager at Servette. As Meisl had done at Austria Wien, Rappan had found his petri dish, and his tactical experiments were greedily eaten up by an eager Swiss audience.

Rappan started by withdrawing his wing halves into a more defensive role, focused on stopping the opposition wingers, either side of a single centre half.

The verrou, or bolt, in the system, named after a door bolt, was in the use of a player behind the defensive line, who could mop up any attacks and with the freedom to move into the midfield when his side had the ball. In seeking a collective system for the prevention of goals, Rappan had invented the Libero.

The Verrou would serve Rappan well, leading Servette to two league titles under his leadership before he moved on to Grasshopper Zurich, where he won five more. Alongside this, he was invited to take change of the Swiss national team, who had spent most of the 1930s getting soundly beaten by their more professional counterparts and were looking for a way to become competitive. Rappan would lead them, first, into the 1938 World Cup.

The early 1930s saw an explosion in technical ability across European football. Jimmy Hogan, and then Meisl, had introduced close ball control and highquality passing, and Herbert Chapman had given the world a system that was predicated on attack.

Austria, as a separate entity, withdrew from the World Cup after Anschluss with Nazi Germany. All nationals were by that stage part of a ‘Greater Germany’, and expected to play under the Swastika, without Hugo Meisl. For Rappan, it was perhaps fate that the opening round for the Swiss would be against a German side who, with the inclusion of elements of the Austrian Wunderteam, were expected to go far.

The Verrou stifled the German opposition, and despite falling behind Switzerland were able to hold them to a creditable draw. In the replay five days later, a powerhouse second half display dispatched the blackshirted German side 4-2. Switzerland would lose the following round to Hungary, but the Verrout had been announced on the biggest stage.

For Rappan, this wouldn’t do. What had come before was reliant upon individual talent, and as a relatively young, and amateur, footballing nation, Switzerland lagged behind in that respect. The Austrian realised that instead he would have to make his team greater than the sum of its parts, and that to do that, he would have to design a system that, rather than scoring as many goals as possible, prevented the opposition from finding the back of the net.

Rappan’s World Cup was not quite over, however.

Under the new German rules, he was now considered a German national who had embarrassed his country and was ordered by the authorities to report to Munich. When he refused, he was ordered to take charge of the national side instead. The Austrian took the opportunity to get out of there, and made his way back to Switzerland, where he would stay throughout the war, and for most of his career.

Rappan took charge of Switzerland three more times over the following thirty years, as well as going back to both Grasshoppers and Servette. His legacy would be his system, however. First, at the 1950 World Cup, where a rampant Brazil were held to a 2-2 draw by the Swiss, implementing the Verrou.

Following that, Herrero’s catenaccio would become the Bolt’s more famous descendant.

Witnessing this, Uruguay copied the system, and overcame the hosts in the final. The shock of this led to a national trauma in Brazil, with suicides, a change of kit colour, and a revolution of tactical understanding that led to their three World Cup successes.
