On Monday 18th December at 12.44AM we were given the perfect early Christmas present… Our little princess Remi Mary Christine Conneely decided to come into our world 10 weeks early weighing 3lb 9oz… we are absolutely besotted by how beautiful she is and how well she is doing ❤️
I urge anyone who is not sure how well greyhounds are kept to please go and visit a trainers kennel. They are treated, fed and looked after better than any human being I’ve ever known and that will always be the case.
Been a long time coming this..4 years of hard work and play off heartache makes this feel so much sweeter.. What an unbelievable feeling winning the league with 3 games to spare..unbelievable players, unbelievable staff, unbelievable fans,
@hinckley_afc
an unbelievable club ❤️💙
Happy due date to our little girl… Nearly 10 weeks of unconditional love and so much more to give… Couldn’t be prouder of how well she has done and coped with everything thrown her way from the moment she was born… Our little Remi ❤️
4 seasons in with this great club
Took us time to achieve what we’ve always wanted but worth the wait
Special group of players, special group of staff, special group of board members and a special group of fans
Promotion was for all of you
Onto next season
@hinckley_afc
❤️💙
Been a pleasure working with Courtney over the last 2 seasons but work and family always come first… Now it’s time to get to work!!!!! Unfinished business ❤️💙
3 cat one competitions… 3 finals… and now a deserving winner of one… go on Candy Man you little beauty… unbelievable training performance again from Team Weatherall and thoroughly deserved after a few near misses recently… well done ROLO 💙💙💙
Puts everything into perspective… we moan about the most minute things ever i.e losing a game a football.. Reiss was 23 years of age and felt there was no way out… heartbreaking news and my thoughts go to reiss’s family and friends… RIP kid 💔💔💔
After a magnificent first season in men's football, Preston Bitemo will leave Hinckley AFC to take a major step in his career and join National League North side
