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.

HERE ARE THE FIXTURES FOR THIS SATURDAY IN THE NCEL PREMIER DIVISION. TOP GAME OF COURSE IS THE BRID' V BORO' DERBY, BUT THE BRIGHOUSE GAME WITH HALL ROAD RANGERS PROMISES TO BE SPECIAL ALSO, BRIGHOUSE WILL BE WAITING FOR ANY SLIP UP BY BORO', BUT THEY HAVE TO DEFEAT HALL ROAD FIRST, MAYBE THEIR CONCENTRATION WILL NOT BE FULLY ON THEIR OWN GAME, ANYWAY GOOD LUCK TO HALL ROAD ON SATURDAY.
PICKERING TOWN  V WORKSOP SHOULD BE AN ENTERTAINING GAME, I THINK JIMMY REID HAS DONE BRILLIANT SINCE HIS RETURN TO TOWN.
THE EVENING KICK OFF AT TADCASTER SHOULD BE A GOOD GAME ALSO.STRANGE HOW 3 OF THE GAMES I HAVE MENTIONED ARE THE THE THREE WHICH THE GROUNDHOPPERS ARE ATTENDING AND DICTATING ADMISSION PRICES ETC. UNBELIEVABLE !
