Following the end of the 2019/20 season yesterday it also brought then end of club legends Dave Manserghs
@westlancsleague
career. To have kept playing til 39 following a leg break at 18 and 2 more after that is remarkable.....1/2
A massive thank you to
@AskamUnitedFC
for their amazing gesture on Saturday. A collection from their players was presented to Gregโs wife Sarah at the game. Total respect for such a thoughtful touch #๐#๐ตโซ๏ธ
....especially considering he didnโt take fitness seriously until he was 30. Quite simply one of the best players the league has probably ever seen. A hat trick against
@LongridgeTownFC
to achieve promotion to the Prem prob the main one of many highlights. Thankyou

Today was all about one man. Gregโs team put in a performance he would have been proud of winning 5-0. Fitting 3 of his juniors scored Ben Phiz 2,

We have today been awarded Sport England Community Emergency Fund Grant. This fund is to support irrecoverable costs incurred during the period 1st March-31st July 2020 through the Covid19 crisis. The value of our award is ยฃ5,000. This will help us enormously. ๐๐๐๐๐
Disappointing that
@BarrowAFC
have decided to end their junior set up from next season. Lots of upheaval to grassroots teams last season and abandoned 6 months later. Those poor kids. All our players are welcome back and will be looked after. At least parents will save a fortune
This is Tom. When heโs not getting paid for being a footballer on a Saturday he likes marking โstraightโ lines at our club for free.
