CHAIRMANS WELCOME Good afternoon and welcome to today’s match against our visitors Birstall FC and may I extend a warm welcome to the players, officials and spectators of Birstall FC and hope that we all enjoy a good match.
As you will be aware there are a vast amount of games to be crammed in between now and the end of the Season which is scheduled for the 5th May. This is going to be a real challenge for all concerned with, not just our football club, but for football in general but I am sure it will all work out well in the end. As ever your support is very much appreciated and we hope you enjoy lots of football here over the next few weeks.
As you will see there is continual works happening at the ground. We are creating a new entrance and turnstile ready for next season. The new cabin is being turned into an outdoor catering unit with ancillary facilities for serving you refreshments, snacks etc during matchdays. The patio area will have new seating and will make a great outdoor space for extra activities outside of football matches. We have plans to replace the windows and put in a new patio door entrance to the right hand side window of the clubhouse and this will create the new entrance to the bar area.
Next week sees the floodlights being cabled up to the mains and reducing the need for the generator on site.
If you feel you want to lend a hand in any way or would like to get involved in the Club in any capacity then do let me know.
All that remains is to thank you for your continued support and to wish our players well today and hope we all are in for a good game. Stuart Bonser Club Chairman Ps – if you are visiting the ground by car please DO NOT OBSTRUCT the junction to Cambrian Way by parking on the grass/path verge as this is both dangerous and you could get a fixed penalty notice from the Council and or Police.

vs Birstall United | Saturday 24th March 2018 | www.ashbyivanhoefc.com
IN OPPOSITION TODAY BIRSTALL UNITED Birstall United Football Club were formed in 1961. Initially playing Sunday football in the Leicester and District League where they enjoyed great success, taking three League championships and also the Leicestershire FA Sunday Intermediate Cup. After their Sunday success the club switched to Saturday football, joining the Leicester Mutual League. Again it was success all the way with Divisions 5, 4 and 3 being won in successive seasons while the Leicestershire FA Sunday Senior Cup was also won while the club operated on both days of the weekend. 1972/73 proved a memorable campaign with the club winning the Leicester Mutual League Division One for the first time, a year later United repeated the feat and added the Leicester FA Junior Cup South by beating Oadby ‘67 by four goals to nil in the final. Birstall enjoyed a third Mutual League Championship in 1976 when the time came to make the logical progression up the ladder to the Leicestershire Senior League, Birstall being accepted into Division Two for the 1976/77 season. Birstall enjoyed two thrilling battles with Hillcroft for supremacy in their initial Senior League campaign, finishing top of the league by a single point with Hillcroft second and adding the Tebbutt Brown Cup with a 3-0 win in the replayed final after the two clubs had drawn the initial match 1-1. Thus 1977 saw Birstall in the top flight of the Senior League where they have remained to this day. So far Birstall have not won the Senior League Championship, nevertheless, have usually been amongst the leading clubs. Their best season being 1981/82 when they finished as runner-up to Anstey Nomads, but did have some consolation by beating Nomads 1-0 in the Tebbutt Brown Cup Final. Twelve months later and another final for Birstall, this time it was the Leicestershire FA Senior Cup when they lost to Hinckley Athletic by two clear goals. The 1984/85 campaign saw the Tebbutt Brown Cup won for the third time with Anstey Nomads again being beaten in the final this time the score line was 3-2. Two seasons later and the final of the Leicestershire FA Cup was reached only for Birstall to go down 1-4 to the now defunct Leicester United. A forth Tebbutt Brown Cup Final came Birstall’s way in the 1988/89 season but this time the silverware went to Stapenhill who won the match 4-0, Birstall lost 2-1 after extra time in the Senior Cup Final to Friar Lane. 1994 saw Birstall win the first Beacon Bitter Floodlight Cup and Birstall finally won the Senior Cup beating Oadby Town 1-0 in 1996. In 1998 at the beginning of the season the club won the Battle of Britain Charity Cup beating Oadby Town 1-0 in the final. At the end of the season Birstall beat Ibstock Welfare in a penalty shoot out to regain the Senior Cup, and completed the treble the year after beating Oadby after penalties. The turn of the century saw the club go through mixed fortunes both on and off the field. Although the 2nd team regularly competed for honours, the first team struggled to keep track on the leading clubs and if truth be told, the standard of the ground and club facilities declined. In 2010 however, the club was taken over by a group of members who transformed the inside of our dated clubhouse and gave us a venue to be proud of again. In 2012 the club applied for, and successfully accrued funding from the Olympic legacy fund which kick started our ambitions to bring the club back to life. Improvements on the ground started with new changing facilities, followed by re-rendering of the club, hard standing around the pitch and a 54 seater stand. During the past four years the committee have embraced the challenge of rebuilding our club, which in turn produced a massive upturn in the fortunes of the club on the field. Old stalwarts came back, recognising the efforts that had been made to improve the facilities and after narrowly missing out on promotion in 2015, the club finally achieved promotion to the East Midlands Counties League last season. This was achieved by winning the Everards Brewery Senior League. A feat we are all very proud of. Now in our 5th decade of being the largest football club in the village, the committee are relishing this new challenge that stands before us and look forward to the next 50 years.

ASHBY IVANHOE FC CLUB HISTORY
19 4 8 - 2 01 8
70 YE AR S
The club currently consists of three adult teams and a youth team. The first team play in the East Midlands Counties League, with the Reserves in the Leicestershire Senior League Premier Division. In the 2008/2009 season the club formed a Youth Team (Under 18’s) side who play in the Leicestershire Midweek Floodlit Youth League on Wednesday nights. A Sunday team was re-introduced for this season and they play in the Burton Sunday League Division Four. The club also has a large number of junior sides ranging from Under 7’s through to Under 18’s who play in the Burton Junior Football League, Tamworth Junior Football League and the Derby City League. The junior section came after the club merged with the David Hunt Soccer School at the beginning of the 2009/2010 season. In February 2004, Ashby Ivanhoe became an FA Charter Standard football club. The club is very ambitious and has plans to progress further up the league pyramid system. The club is run by an experienced management team and enjoys the support of some very prestigious commercial partners. Ashby Ivanhoe had one of their most successful seasons in 2010/2011 as they completed a league and cup double by winning the Leicestershire Senior League by nine points and also lifted the Coalville Charity Cup for the very first time after producing a superb second half comeback to beat Bardon Hill 3-2 in the final. They have also reached successive Leicestershire Senior Cup finals in 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 but had to settle for runners-up on both occasions losing 3-1, firstly to Ibstock United and then Aylestone Park. The 2013/2014 season saw the first team achieve a long-term ambition as they won promotion into the Step 6 East Midlands Counties League for the 2014/2015 season after finishing third place in the Leicestershire Senior League. It was a close title race with the top three all finishing level on points with Ashby third on goal difference. The Reserves were also promoted to the Leicestershire Senior League Division One. 2014/2015 saw Ashby compete at Step 6 of the non-league pyramid for the first time and they had a very good season and secured a top six finish in the East Midlands Counties League which featured victories against all of the sides above them. The Reserve side were involved in a tight title race and it went down to a last day decider against Lutterworth Athletic Reserves but despite the result going against them on the day they were still promoted for the second season in succession and would play at Step 7 in the Leicestershire Senior League Premier Division for 2015/2016.

ASHBY IVANHOE FC CLUB HISTORY 2015/2016 saw Ashby have another fine season and they mounted a strong title challenge and they led the East Midlands Counties League for the majority of the season before finally finishing in third place. That saw them assured of a first ever appearance in the FA Cup for the 2016/2017 season. Last season was the most memorable in the history of Ashby Ivanhoe Football Club. For the very first time in the clubs history they were accepted to play in the most famous club competition in the world, The FA Cup. It turned into a thrilling journey with higher ranked opponents of Quorn and Loughborough Dynamo knocked out before Ashby fell to Ilkeston in the 1st Qualifying Round. Prior to the Ilkeston defeat Ashby received a visit from the FA Cup which was paraded through the town centre visiting local sponsors before players and spectators had the opportunity to view the cup at the NFU Sports Ground. The league season was inconsistent with a strong finish to the season seeing the team finish in tenth place. The season did end with a first appearance in the final of the Jenkins & Jenkins League Cup but Dunkirk overturned a one goal deficit late on to see Ashby end as runners-up. The new season sees a new management team at the helm of the club with Glyn Andrews and Craig Picknell joining the club from Friar Lane & Epworth with the aim of achieving promotion to Step 5.
