MANAGERS REPORT FC Oswestry Town Manager, Matt Burton in association with Maudesport Firstly I would like to welcome all players, management, committee and supporters of Stockport Town for this afternoon’s fixture. We wish you a safe journey to and from the game.

Company Name: FC OSWESTRY LIMITED Company No: 08495772 Chairman: Ian Jones Director of Football: Nick Maguire Commercial Director: Matt Williams Club Secretary: Andy Burnett Programme Editor: Bernie Johnson County Affiliation: Shropshire Year Formed: 2013 Previous Leagues:

Over the last week we have had two good performances but come out on the wrong side of the scoreline. Last Wednesday we produced a spirited performance in the final of the Etherston Cup agianst Premier Division team, Whitchurch Alport.

Playing at their home ground and against higher league opposition was always going to be a tough assignment, but as in all our matches this year against such teams we acquiited ourselves well and went down by the only goal.

Then it was on to Saturday and our visit to table topping Rylands. In the first half we struggled to come to terms with the quality of the opposition and the rather bumpy nature of the pitch and lost two first half goals. The second half was better but Rylands desrved their victory and their place at the top of the League.

We look to bounce back this afternoon against Stockport Town. If we can avange our defeat to them earlier in the season we will be right back in the mix for a top four place or even better.

Enjoy the game, and I look forward to seeing you again soon, down at The Venue.

OUR VISITORS

Year Formed: 2014 Ground: Lambeth Grove Manager: Alan Lord Stockport Town Football Club began life back in February 2014 and developed a first-team squad in preparation for the 2014/15 season. Unfortunately the club failed to secure a place in the North West Counties League division One so led by manager, Calum Sykes, proceeded through a campaign of friendly fixtures.

The club’s first ever non-competitive match came against Stalybridge Celtic on 12th July 2014, and despite losing 5-0 at Stockport Sports Village, the club had begun its journey.

The club, nicknamed The Lions, spent the season playing against first teams and reserve teams from many different clubs including; FC United of Manchester, Ramsbottom United, Fleetwood Town U21’s and Norwegian outfit, Rolvsøy IF. The Lions endured a successful campaign competing in 35 fixtures home and away ending with statistics of Won: 17, Draw: 8, Lost: 10. The club also completed a 13-match unbeaten run in the middle of the campaign between 13th July - 13th October, including 9 victories.

In May 2015 the club was accepted into Step 6 of the Non-League Pyramid and joined the North West Counties Football League - Division One. The club’s first ever competitive fixture came on Saturday 8th August 2015 away at Hanley Town, a match in which Stockport were victorious 3-2, and in doing so recorded their first win in a competitive match.

On 15th August 2015 the club competed in their first League match at Stockport Sports Village, with their opponents on that day, Widnes FC securing a 2-2 draw in front of a then record crowd of 78.

Town competed in three competitions in their first ever league season including the NWCFL, League Challenge Cup and Cheshire Senior Cup. The club progressed to the semi-finals of the League Challenge Cup before suffering a 3-1 defeat to Barnton FC at SSV, meanwhile Hyde United knocked Town out of the Cheshire Senior Cup in the Preliminary Round.

As the season came to a close, the Lions secured a playoff spot in the First Division with a match to spare in the NWCFL. Town came up against Bacup Borough FC in the playoff semi-final at SSV but were defeated 2-0 as Bacup progressed into the 2015 First Division Playoff Final.

The second competitive season for the club didn’t go quite so well. Full of optimism in August, and favoured by many to win the league, the Lions got off to a slow start and were languishing in mid-table when Calum Sykes resigned as manager a week prior to Christmas 2016 moving on to manage New Mills and taking 9 players with him.

In the interim period before the board were able to appoint a new manager, the team suffered its biggest defeat, a 10-0 crushing at the hands of City of Liverpool. The game did set another record, a gate of 196, at the time club record for a league match.

In January 2017 Dave Wild was appointed alongside assistant Phil Carratt. Under Dave and Phil, the Lions went on a 12 match unbeaten run which left the club excited about what could happen in 2017/18.

In addition the U18s lifted the North West Youth Alliance Division 2 title. The U21s didn’t fare so well finishing 6th in the North West Development League. Nathan Neequaye, who’d left the club midseason to join New Mills ended the season as top scorer on 17 goals. Izzy Miranda, a January signing for Dave Wild, was awarded Players Player of the Year with Daryll Grant winning Player of the Year.

Jack McConnell, who made his first team debut as a 16 year old, scooped the Young Player of the Year Award.

The Lions third season in the NWCFL was anticipated with much promise as the managerial duo of Wild and Carratt looked to build upon the finish to the 2016 -17 season with the signing of a number of established players from around the North West counties teams to add to a core of young U21 players. Despite occasional highs including the return to SSV of previous manager Sykes and his New Mills team who were subjected to a 6-1 mauling in front of a record league crowd of 212, the watchword for the league performances was inconsistency.

This situation was not helped in March by the managerial duo moving into management roles at Evostik club Mossley and the subsequent departure of a number of senior players.. They were replaced by Under 21s manager Jake Davies and his assistant Tom Upton who valiantly saw the club through to the end of the season as the club finished in 10th position – a long way of 9th and even further from the play-offs.

Cup performances however were the highlight of the season with a string of eye catching results against higher league opposition including beating Maine Road, Runcorn Linnets and Abbey Hey on the way to the semi-finals of the Macron Cup and Hyde United and Winsford United on route to the final of the Cheshire Senior Cup. By reaching the final, the Lions became the lowest ranked club ever to reach the final of this prestigious cup and the first NWCFL team since 1984 to do so.

Sadly for the Lions, there would be no cup glory as they came up against a very strong Nantwich Town side who ran out 3-0 winners.

The season saw Ben Halfacre end the season as League 1 top scorer with 31 goals which added to his 10 goals from the previous season saw him eclipsing on the way the previous scoring record held by the aforementioned Neequaye. Izzy Miranda once again won the Player of the Year award with Robbie Wallis securing he Young Player of the Year award.

The U21 team also enjoyed a successful if ultimately fruitless season. Despite leading the U21 league for spells, cup runs and a fixture pile up saw the team fall away to finish 3rd in the Division. The cups saw the team mirror the first team in reaching the semi-final of one trophy and controversially losing a pulsating cup final to a very strong Southport team in the other. Perhaps more satisfying was the emergence of a number of the team seamlessly making their first team debuts and establishing themselves in the first team squad.

In the closed season, the Board decided to carry out a root and branch re-organisation of the club taking it back to the reason for establishing the club back in 2015 - i.e. giving Stockport talent a platform to play on at a high level.

Off the pitch, the club have increased the size of its board to bring in new talents and skills including a high profile Championship footballer with the aim of raising significantly the profile of the club. A new headline sponsor has been secured as Kitlocker become our official kit supplier. Many other sponsors and advertisers have also been secured as the club extends its reach into the local community. Other strong partnerships with both professional organisations and junior football clubs are being forged.

In terms of facilities, Stockport Sports Village – recently crowned National Sports Facility of the Year - saw a massive investment with the relaying of the base and a new state of the art pitch being laid.

The club were fortunate to secure the services of Alan Lord as manager for the 2018-19 season and beyond. Alan brings a wealth of knowledge to the team with his role of Head of Youth Development at Stockport County forging closer ties between the two clubs and providing a platform for many of County’s youth players to gain experience at Step 6 level. Alan brings with him Bobby Lofthouse who will combine the dual roles of player and Assistant Manager and we are delighted that Jake and Tom have remained with the club as first team coaches. The backroom staff is finished off with our very popular and experienced physio Tanya.

On the pitch, only two senior players remain from last season. However, a mix of U21s continuing the step up combined with successful trialists and contacts have seen the Lions build a young but fast and highly mobile squad for 2018-19 and there is considerable excitement as we wait to see how the team perform in the new style Hallmark League Division 1 South

Hard work and endeavour weren’t quite enough as Town went down by three goals to nil against tabletopping Rylands. It was always going to be an uphill struggle once the home side gained a two goal advantage by half time.

The second half proved a more even affair as Town started to come to terms with their opposition and also the somewhat bumpy nature of the pitch. However, it was not to be and Rylands grabbed a third goal on 89 minutes to seal their win.

FIRST DIVISION SOUTH NEWS In the First Division South, Rylands took a huge step towards securing the title with a 3-0 home win over FC Oswestry Town.

Stu Wellstead, Tom Freeman and Warren Gerrard were on target for Rylands, and two wins from their last four games will ensure they finish top, although one win could be enough depending on results elsewhere.

The chase to catch Rylands is still led by Stone Old Alleynians, who won 2-0 at Cheadle Town through a Samuel Wilson goal and a David Ablewhite penalty.

Stone remain three points ahead of Vauxhall Motors in third place, for whom Joe Brandon and Karl Noon scored in the 2-1 win at Stockport Town.

Wythenshawe Town moved into fourth place with a 2-0 home win over Cammell Laird 1907, Grant Spencer and Ashley Leather getting the goals, and neighbours Wythenshawe Amateurs lost ground on those above them after being held to a 2-2 draw at Abbey Hulton United.

Lee Cropper’s 82nd minute equaliser salvaged a point for Abbey.

Elsewhere, Remeece Brown scored a second half hat trick in the space of seven minutes for New Mills in the 6-2 win at St Martins, and Luke Wilson-Jones was another hat trick hero, bagging a treble in Barnton’s 5-1 home win over Eccleshall.

There was a welcome home win for second bottom Ellesmere Rangers, 2-0 at home to Alsager Town, and Stone Dominoes remain bottom after losing 6-0 at home to Cheadle Heath Nomads.
