THIS BLOG WAS CREATED FROM THE VERY BEGINNINGS OF SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC'S FORMATION

Scarborough Athletic F.C were formed on June 25th 2007 following the winding up order imposed on the old club after the local council turned down the club's survival plans. The club were finally forced into liquidation with debts of £2.5 million by a High Court judge, and so ended the club's magnificent 128 year history, no thoughts or consideration was to be spared for anyone connected with the club or the towns footballing public. However a trust had been formed and we were prepared for such a situation should it arise. The Seadog Trust applied to the Northern Counties East League to enter newly formed Scarborough Athletic and they were succesful in their application.
The new club are a continuation of the old one, they have the same kit, badge, motto etc and most importantly have kept a large number of the old supporters. This blog was started by me from the very beginnings of Scarborough Athletic FC and will follow the fortunes, both good and bad of the newly formed club as they try to get back to the higher levels of the football pyramid where they rightly belong. A rival team has also been formed 'Scarborough Town', I do not expect that particular club will have much of a future, but do they realise the damage that they are causing to the future success of football in the town, our town cannot support 2 teams, Athetic are here to stay, we are the town's number one football team and will return to the higher levels of the game in the next few seasons..


THIS BLOG WAS ESTABLISHED FROM THE BEGINNINGS OF SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC AND WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE CLUB ON THEIR JOURNEY BACK TO THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE. I AM NOT HERE TO ADVERTISE OR MAKE MONEY FROM 3RD PARTY LISTINGS, I AM HERE TO SIMPLY FOLLOW THE CLUB AND TRY TO KEEP THIS BLOG AS INTERESTING AS POSSIBLE. COMMENTS ARE WELCOME.

AWAY DEFEAT FOR BORO AT SHIREBROOK.


SCARBOROUGH ATHLETIC'S STRANGE RUN OF  FORM CONTINUED AT LOWLY SHIREBROOK TODAY, I WAS UNABLE TO MAKE THE GAME AND I AM PRETTY HAPPY ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW.
THE FACTS ARE THAT WE WERE LEADING 2-0 AT HALF TIME, YET MANAGED TO LOSE THE GAME BY 4 GOALS TO 3.
ON A POSITIVE NOTE WE ARE STILL EQUAL TOP, SANDWICHED BETWEEN BRIDLINGTON TOWN IN TOP SPOT AND RAINWORTH MW BELOW US IN 3RD.
BUT, BOTH BRID' AND RAINWORTH HAVE 3 GAMES IN HAND OVER US.
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THE TEAM ARE STRUGGLING AT THE MOMENT, BUT THEY ALONG WITH THE MANAGMENT NEED 100% BACKING FROM THE FANS, BEGINNING WITH THE NEXT GAME WHICH IS AT HOME NEXT SATURDAY TO 5TH PLACED LIVERSEDGE.
BRIDLINGTON TOWN HAD A 4-0 VICTORY OVER HALLAM TODAY AND RAINWORTH ALSO HAD AN EXCELLENT 3-1 AWAY VICTORY TO MALTBY MAIN.
4TH PLACED ARMTHORPE WELFARE WERE IN 'VASE' ACTION TODAY WINNING 3-2 AFTER EXTRA TIME AT DAISY HILL.
