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.

POOR FINAL DAY DISPLAY BY 'CHAMPIONS' 'BORO'

This was a disappointing end to a highly successful season by Champions Scarborough Athletic. We were defeated by a very ordinary looking Glasshoughton side.The 1st half past with very little to get excited about, and the score was 0-0.
 Glasshoughton started the better in the 2nd half, but it was Boro who took the lead against the run of play in the 55th minute, Ryan Blott's replacement Dave Brown opened the scoring for Boro', but within 10 minutes of the opening goal Glasshoughton were level, the game looked set to end in a 1-1 stalemate, but with just 5 minutes remaining Boro found themselves 2-1 down, and that was in fact the final score, despite the performance and result Boro fans celebrated with the players following the final whistle, and we can now look forward to exciting times ahead in the Evo Stick Leagues on the way back to the football league via the Conference.
 UP THE BORO.
                      "CHAMPIONS"
