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.

DEANO FINALLY FINDS A GOAL IN BORO 5-2 VICTORY ROMP AT SELBY TOWN

Sadly I missed seeing the first goal from Dean Windass in a Boro league game, but no doubt now that he has broke his duck many more goals will follow from the ex Hull City star.
  I was in London for the weekend seeing the fantastic stage play "Warhorse", and I want to say if you get the chance then go and see this show at the New London Theatre, it is fantastic.
DEAN WINDASS WHO OPENED HIS BORO SCORING ACCOUNT AT SELBY TOWN ON SATURDAY.
  Anyway Boro had a magnificent 5-2 victory at near neighbours Selby Town's Rigid Stadium, we were actually 2-1 down at half time, completely against the run of play, (so the paper says) but in true Boro fashion we came out for the 2nd half all fired up and justice was done as we stormed into and maintained a 5-2 lead, Rudy must have spoke some magic words at half time to the players.
  We are now in 3rd position in the league, Thackley also did us a favour in beating 2nd placed Retford United, United seem to be losing a bit of form recently, and Boro are in a healthy looking position with their games in hand over the teams above them..
UP THE BORO.................
