HOW DOES IT WORK?
WHEN IS IT?
ANDYSMANCLUBs meet every Monday at 7pm (excluding Bank Holiday Mondays).
AD
The process is about bringing men together who have been in similar situations, to help each other on a peer to peer basis, sharing how they have dealt with various situations through lived experiences. No matter how big or small your problem feels, we are here to support each other. The 5 questions that are asked each week are designed not only to encourage men to talk, but to start to focus on the positives and on strategies to keep moving forward. There is no pressure to answer any of the questions and it is not uncommon for men to just listen for the first few sessions.
The clubs all run on the same format and adhere to the same guidelines. A key principle of ANDYSMANCLUB is anything that is said in the club, stays within the club.
WHO IS IT FOR?
The club is open to any man 18 or over, who is going through a storm, been through a storm or just wants to meet a good group of people with the aim of improving one another.

The Daniel Wilkinson Foundation is a charity set up in memory of Daniel Wilkinson who died in 2016 aged 24, while playing the game he loved, from an underlying heart condition called Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC).
Dan played football from an early age and joined Hull City AFC when he was 10, earning a professional contract aged 18. Loughborough University followed where he completed a degree in Accounting and Financial Management while playing non-league football. He was an athlete who enjoyed the gym and took his health and nutrition very seriously. He lived life to the full and had so much ahead of him.
Other than feeling light-headed on a few occasions in the month before he died, he had no symptoms!
SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH IN THE YOUNG (SCD)
SCD is the leading cause of death in young athletes during sport and the majority of deaths occur with NO SYMPTOMS or family history.
ARVC can be found in one in every 1,000 to 5,000 young adults - IF IT IS LOOKED FOR.
Warning signs may include light-headedness, fainting, palpitations, swollen legs, breathlessness.
Every week in the UK, 12 apparently fit and healthy young people (aged 35 and under) die from previously undiagnosed heart conditions.
In Italy, where screening is mandatory for all young people engaged in organised sport, they have reduced the incidence of young sudden cardiac death by 89%.
OUR MISSION
The Daniel Wilkinson Foundation has been set up to raise awareness of SCD and to provide funding towards heart screening, defibrillators and CPR/defibrillator training primarily for grass-roots sporting teams.
Tragedies can be prevented through cardiac screening. It is vital that young people are identified and treated.
Words from the Gaffer
Football is full of ups and downs, and right now, we’re in a tough spell. There’s no denying that results haven’t been what we wanted, but what I can say with certainty is that this group is working hard every single day to turn things around. The effort in training has been outstanding, and the lads are doing everything they can to build confidence, push each other, and strengthen that team spirit. It’s about small steps—cutting out mistakes, staying positive, and being ruthless when chances come our way.
The recent run of postponements hasn’t helped matters. When you feel like you’re on the verge of picking up results, having games called off can be incredibly frustrating. We genuinely believed we could have won some of those fixtures, and now, with the schedule getting tighter, we’ll have to be at our best physically and mentally to navigate the challenges ahead. But we won’t make excuses. This is football, and it’s about adapting. We’ve got to take things one game at a time and focus on what we can control—starting today.
Sherwood Colliery will be a tough test, but they’re down there battling with us, and these are the games where we have to show our quality. We know we’ve got a good side in that dressing room. We’ve seen glimpses of what we’re capable of, and it’s about putting it together for 90 minutes. The lads are determined to show that we belong at this level, and there’s no better way to prove that than by delivering on the pitch.
It’s never easy to lose a player like Josh Ayres. He’s been clinical for us, and his two goals against North Ferriby last weekend showed exactly what he brings to the team. He’s got that instinct in front of goal, and he will be a big miss for us. But football moves fast, and this is a chance for others to step up. We believe in the squad we’ve got, and it’s up to us to find the solutions to keep scoring and picking up points.
Finally, I want to thank you, the fans, for sticking by us. We know it hasn’t been easy, but your support means everything to the players and staff. It makes a huge difference when we hear you backing the team, and I can promise you that we’re all giving everything to turn this into a season we can be proud of. Let’s get behind the lads today and push for that all-important result!
History of The World’s First
Early Football.
Versions of football evolved in many early civilisations, example of these can be found in ancient China, Greece and Rome. In England the original games were played between villages in fields and streets. This ‘Mob Football’ involved hundreds of players and was little more than prolonged and violent street battles.
In the 19th century a more refined version of the game grew in popularity within the public schools and universities, each playing to their own sets of rules.
The Birth of Sheffield Foot Ball Club.
During the 1850s the enthusiasm and influence of ex-public school and university students spread the popularity of the game around Sheffield. In the summer of 1857 William Prest and Nathaniel Creswick agreed that the game would be a splendid candidate for organised sport during the winter months. The pair wrote
to the Public Schools for information, regarding their varying rules, with the aim of drawing up a set of laws embodying the best points from each. On October 24th, 1857, the world’s first football club was born in a greenhouse. Among the first rules drawn up were laws asserting that “no hacking or tripping up is fair under any circumstances”, “no player may be held or pulled over” and “it is not lawful to take the ball off the ground [using hands]”. Upon the formation of the Football Association in 1863, Sheffield Club’s insistence on these laws helped lead the evolution of the game we recognise globally today. Heading, crossbars, corner kicks, free-kicks for fouls, throw-ins, a half-time change of ends and floodlit matches can all be traced to the innovators of Sheffield F.C.
Early Years
Initially early matches, such as Married men v Unmarried, were played between club members. Records also show games against local army sides. Following victory over the 58th
Army Regiment in 1860 a local report stated that, “most of the officers were adepts at the game, having, in their younger days, played in the public school matches, and the victory of the civilians was quite unexpected.” Following the birth of Hallam F.C., the world’s first inter-club game took place on Boxing Day in 1860. The match “was conducted with good temper and in a friendly spirit”, concluding in a 2-0 win for Sheffield. For several years all matches were played locally, against a rising number of new sides, before the first ‘out of town’ match was played in Nottinghamshire in 1865. In 1866 Sheffield became the first non- London side to play under FA Laws when they met London at Battersea Park. The FA Cup was founded in 1871 and in its third season Sheffield became the first northern side to take part and the first nonLondon side to win a tie. They succeeded in reaching the quarter finals in this and two further seasons also, 1876 and 1878, the club’s support helping the FA Cup nearly treble in size
and become a nationwide competition. 1872 saw the first international game, between England and Scotland in Glasgow, with Sheffield’s Charles Clegg playing for the England side. Clegg would later go on to be Chairman, and President, of the FA and receive a knighthood for his services to the game. From the 1880s onwards the rise of professionalism and Sheffield Club’s firm insistence on retaining their amateur status saw them overtaken and overshadowed by other sides in the area. During these years the very survival of the club owed much to the leadership of former players Harry Chambers and Harry Broughton Willey. It wasn’t all doom and gloom though! In fact Sheffield enjoyed possibly their greatest hour in 1904 when they won the Amateur Cup, beating Ealing 3-1 at Valley Parade, Bradford.
YORKSHIRE LEAGUE
1949 brought admission to the Yorkshire League and a resurgence, which saw the side promoted to Division 1 in their third season and reach the League Cup final in 1953. In 1957 they celebrated their Centenary year and reached their first Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup final in 1962. After a period of yo-yoing between divisions the 1977 side were crowned Division
2 Champions and reached that season’s FA Vase final at Wembley. They established themselves as a top division side in the Yorkshire League, lifting the League Cup in 1978, before joining the newly founded Northern Counties East League in 1982.
NORTHERN COUNTIES LEAGUE
The Division 1 title was won in both 1989 and 1991 and a first Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup win came in 1994. In 2001 the club acquired a permanent ground, for the first time, when moving to its current home. After the turn of the century the side began to consistently challenge for promotion, also winning the League Cup and Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup twice apiece. The 2006/07 season ended with a 2nd place finish and promotion to the Northern Premier League.
NORTHERN PREMIER LEAGUE
Club made an instant impact in reaching the 2008 play-off final, narrowly losing only on penalties. That first season also saw games against Inter Milan and Ajax at Bramall Lane, as part of the 150th birthday celebrations. The side have reached the NPL play-offs a further 3 times in addition to lifting the Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Cup in 2008 and 2010.

Sherwood Colliery History
Sherwood Colliery FC
reformed in 2008 with a view to giving Mansfield Woodhouse a Saturday Adult team that the town had lacked for many years. With predominantly young players, the club entered the Midland Amateur Alliance (MAA) in 2008-09. The following season saw the introduction of a reserve team, both teams playing in the MAA.
In 2010-11, the First Team won the MAA 1st Division Championship while the reserves gained promotion from Division 2.
In 2012-13, an application to join the Central Midlands League was successful. The club entered a First team in the North Division and a Reserve team in the Reserve
Premier League and with a young squad of players managed the adjustment to the higher level of football reasonably well. A third (A) team was added in 2013-14 with an even younger squad of players who played in the MAA to gain experience of adult football.
2013-14 saw the first team achieve a creditable 10th place in the North division while the Reserves completed a Reserve Premier and Reserve League Cup double. The ‘A’ team finished in 4th place in the MAA Division 2. Despite this success, the club suffered a hammer blow in the close season prior to the 2014-15 season with the management teams leaving the club only 2 weeks before the start of the season. The club managed to
somehow put managers and players in place and fulfil the fixtures.
The 2015-16 season saw an influx of new committee members and new First and Reserve team managers appointed in early June. Wayne Savage joined from Bilsthorpe FC and remains in the post. He secured promotion via the CML South runners-up position in 2017-18 and the club achieved Step 5 status in 2021-22 through the points per game restructure following 2 covid-19 affected seasons, the team finished a creditable 5th place in the highly competitive Northern Counties East League and reached the first qualifying round of the FA Cup for the
first time in their history.
2022-23 saw another change of league, a lateral move to the United Counties League and a 6th placed finish after an inconsistent season. A bit of a squad rebuild happened for the following season, and it worked with us having one of the best defensive records in the whole of non-league football winning the league by 11 points. Which starts our adventure in the Northern Premier League for our first ever taste of Step 4 football.
The club run an Under 21 team that compete in the North Midlands Development League (winning the Southern Championship in 2022-23) and at the other end of the scale a Veterans team that has won back to back titles in the East Midlands Veterans League and came runners up in the Premier League in 2023-24.
MATCH REPORT
NORTH FERRIBY VS SHEFFIELD FC
Sheffield FC's relegation threatened woes continued on Saturday, as they were denied a valuable point at the death at promotion chasing North Ferriby, with the hosts running out 3-2 winners at The Dransfield Stadium.
Despite Sheffield starting the stronger it was Ferriby that went close first, as a 10th minute shot from Tom Corner rattled the bar, with Lewis Dennison foiled from close range by a scrambling defence from the resulting corner. Club broke the deadlock on 18 minutes, as Jack Hardacre saw his throw returned to him before dispatching a looping cross to the back post, with Josh Ayres marking his last game with The World's First with a towering header.
Ferriby drew level five minutes before the break, a long clearance from Ben Bottomley was headed on by Tom Corner, with Sam Aynseley driving a low daisy cutter that went under keeper Oli Riva.
The visitors retook the lead on 56 minutes, as debutant Archie White chased down Jack Hardacre's clearance, out jumping and outpacing Sam Aynseley before sending in an inch perfect cross from Josh Ayres to nod home.
That lead was short-lived and the home side were awarded a penalty on the hour mark, as Brad Beatson was judged to have pushed Lewis
Dennison over in the box, with Keiron Ceesay sending the keeper the wrong way.
Both teams cancelled each other out after this, Ayres had the ball in the net with a lob over the keeper - but that was ruled out for offsidewhilst at the other end Corner fired a soft shot straight at Riva.
The game was decided in the fifth minute of injury time, Aynseley seeing his throw returned by Dennison, before hitting a low drive into the far corner to break the hearts of the visitors.
SHEFFIELD FC WOMEN UPDATE
2025 has been a frustrating year so far for Sheffield FC's Women's side, as we enter the fourth week still waiting to play our first football of the year, following cancellationsin each of the first three weeks.
We have been victims to the weather on two of the weekends, our home game against Stamford was called off due to the Home of Football being snowbound, whilst a week later that snow was causing too much trouble for the staff at Staveley to host our hastily arranged game versus Chesterfield.
Last Sunday was nothing short of farcical, as our game versus Ilkeston Town was postponed less than three hours before kick off, due to our visitors folding and resigning from the league that morning. Our previous football action was away at Ilkeston in December, again bringing the game into disrepute with the home side turning up with just EIGHT players, conceding NINE goals in the first 40-odd minutes before getting enough players to limp off the field and abandon the game. Naturally we were furious that this game would have to be played all over again, but following their resignation, it means this won't need to happen and all their results have been expunged.
This means that our challenge at the top of the table has strengthened, with our nearest rivals Chesterfield Ladies having an 8-0 win chalked off, vastly reducing their goal difference.
Tomorrow we hopefully have the big one, the girls are at home to Chesterfield in what could be a title decider, the Spirettes are level on points but with a game in hand and are currently undefeated.
Following that game we'll have a break from league action with two cup games to follow, a League Cup Quarter Final tie on the 9th (against opposition yet to be determined), with a County Cup game at home to Brunsmeer Athletic on the 16th.
MATCH REPORT:
SWALLOWNEST 2 SHEFFIELD FC U21 2
Sheffield FC’s Development team could count themselves unlucky on Thursday evening, as an 86th minute own-goal stopped them taking all three points in the bottom of the table clash, ending up with a 2-2 draw.
Club started rather shakily against their struggling hosts, and on 5 minutes they were behind as keeper Patrick Warrington was caught in possession, allowing Billy Stafford to curl the ball into the empty net. The visitors drew level three minutes before the interval, a defence splitting through ball found Carter Tingle on goal, with the Sheffield man staying calm to tuck the ball under Tyler Crossland.
On 53 minutes Sheffield took the lead, with Harrison Lightning marking his return from a four month lay-off with a well taken goal, tucking past the keeper with the outside of his foot from 20 yards out.
Swallownest were awarded a penalty ten minutes from time, Sonny Bennett judged to have tripped Billy Stafford in the area, however Warrington saved the day with a fine save from Stafford.
As time was running out and Club looking like taking all three-points disaster struck, Swall substitute Tom Roberts was put through on goal, Alex Reed managed to take the ball off the forward only to divert it beyond the keeper and into the goal for 2-2.
