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.

BORO BOSS RUDY FUNK SAYS "I'LL ALWAYS SUPPORT THE FANS".

MANY BORO FANS ARE TALKING OF BOYCOTTING THE MUCH TALKED ABOUT PARKGATE GAME TOMORROW EVENING FOLLOWING THE ANTICS OF THE CLUB IN PREVIOUS GAMES AND THE UNFAIR FINE PLACED ON OUR CLUB FOLLOWING THE FANS REACTIONS TO THE DIABOLICAL WAY THE GAME WAS REFEREED.
  THE CLUB WAS HIT WITH AN UNFAIR FINE OF £160, MOST OF THIS AMOUNT HAS ALREADY BEEN RAISED BY FANS AT THE AWAY MATCH AT THACKLEY ON SATURDAY AND WILL BE GIVEN TO THE CLUB TO PAY THE FINE..
  HOWEVER, MANY FANS ARE BOYCOTTING THE GAME AT PARKGATE TOMORROW EVENING, THEIR ACTIONS WILL HIT PARKGATE IN THE POCKET AS THEY WILL BE RELYING ON A BIG TURNOUT OF BORO FANS AND BE LOOKING FORWARD TO US SPENDING OUR HARD EARNED CASH IN THEIR CLUBHOUSE ETC, SO I UNDERSTAND THE LOGIC IN FANS STAYING AWAY, BUT I PERSONALLY WILL BE ATTENDING THE GAME, BUT I WILL NOT SPEND A PENNY IN THEIR GROUND, IT WILL BE FLASK AND SANDWICHES INSTEAD.
  BOSS RUDY STATED IN TONIGHT'S PAPER.
 "I AM ALWAYS ON THE FANS SIDE, THEY SUPPORT ME AND I WILL BACK THEM NO MATTER WHAT"
RUDY CARRIED ON BY SAYING
 "I WENT TO A GAME THE OTHER NIGHT  AND I SAW THE REFEREE AND HIS OFFICIALS GETTING SOME REAL ABUSE"
  "THIS WASN'T BANTER LIKE OUR FANS HAVE WITH THE REFEREES, THIS WAS REAL, HORRIBLE ABUSE".
  "FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE A GO AT OUR FANS AND SAY THAT THEY DON'T BEHAVE IS OUT OF ORDER AND BECAUSE OF THAT, IF THEY FEEL HARD DONE TO, I'M FULLY BEHIND THEM".
  "I SPOKE TO LONG EATON KEEPER ROSS WHALIN AFTER A GAME EARLIER THIS SEASON AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF THE FIXTURE".
 " HE TOOK THE BANTER, KNEW HOW TO HANDLE IT AND GAVE A BIT BACK, WHICH IS HOW IT IS".
  GREAT WORDS FROM RUDY, WHICH EMPHASISES THE TOGETHERNESS AT THE CLUB AND THE TOTAL RESPECT THROUGHOUT THE CLUB, 
  LETS GET THE PARKGATE GAME OUT OF THE WAY, BRING BACK THE 3 POINTS AND LOOK FORWARD TO SATURDAY AND A TRIP TO HIGH FLYING RETFORD UNITED.
UP THE BORO..............
