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.

STRIKER SHORTAGE FOR GEDLING TRIP.

BORO ARE FACED WITH A STRIKER DILEMMA AHEAD OF TOMMOROWS JOURNEY TO GEDLING TOWN IN NOTTINGHAMSHIRE.
GEDLING ARE TOP OF THE LEAGUE AND ARE SO FAR UNBEATEN, BUT BORO HAVE BEEN PLAYING SOME GOOD FOOTBALL OF LATE AND SHOULD REALLY FEAR NO ONE IN THIS LEAGUE, HOWEVER WE DO HAVE PROBLEMS ON THE GOALSCORING FRONT FOR TOMMOROW.
BORO BOSS BRIAN FRANCE HAS A STRIKER PROBLEM FOR TOMMOROWS GAME DUE TO INJURY AND SUSPENSIONS.
RYAN BLOTT WHO GOT HIS FIRST GOAL FOR HIS NEW CLUB LAST WEEK IS UNABLE TO PLAY DUE TO A TWO WEEK SUSPENSION, HIS ABILITY IS SURE BE MISSED BY THE TEAM, ANOTHER SUSPENSION, THIS TIME TO NEW SIGNING RICHARD MEDCALFE, PICKED UP AT HIS PREVIOUS CLUB 'BRODSWORTH' PREVENTS HIM FROM PLAYING TOMMOROW ALSO.
AND TO MAKE MATTERS EVEN WORSE MIKE TATE IS LIKELY TO MISS THE GAME BECAUSE OF A MINOR INJURY PICKED UP IN TRAINING.
BUT, ON A POSITIVE NOTE THE BORO DEFENCE HAS TURNED IN SOME EXCELLENT PERFORMANCES AND THE EXPECTED RETURN OF RYAN DAVIES SHOULD FURTHER IMPROVE THE TEAMS DEFENSIVE CAPABILITIES, AND YOU NEVER KNOW WE COULD SEE THE NAME OF SCOTT PHILLIPS ON THE SCORESHEET YET AGAIN.
WE ARE CAPABLE OF BEATING ANYONE ON OUR DAY AND WE ARE NOT UNDER ANY PRESSURE TOMMOROW, GEDLING ARE THE TEAM UNDER PRESSURE AS THEY WILL BE FAVOURITES ON THE DAY TO BEAT US.
I AM CONFIDENT THAT THE BORO WILL SURPRISE GEDLING TOWN AND COME OUT OF THE GAME WITH ALL THREE POINTS.
JUST A QUICK REMINDER TO FANS TRAVELLING, IT IS ADVISABLE TO GO VIA THE HUMBER BRIDGE BECAUSE OF THE ROADWORKS AT THE BLYTH ROUNDABOUT ON THE A1.
UP THE BORO.......................................
