ANDY GRAY
FIRST TEAM UPDATE Afternoon to you all. It's been quite a while since my last notes. Infact it seems like an eternity since our last home game. Our recent results have been pleasing as we have now won 6 games 'on the bounce'. There have been some tough encounters particularly at Wednesfield and Cradley. As we have learnt, the Black Country teams are incredibly hard working and combative in all areas. In these recent games we have shown the resilience to compete with them on that front and have effectively ground out results. Today with the visit of OJM we expect exactly the same. They are also a very good footballing team who comfortably beat us earlier in the season. This will be our toughest test to date but one we are all very much looking forward to. We've trained hard in preparation for today and I expect another good team performance from the lads.
I hope you all enjoy the game and would ask you to cheer us on to the three points. Regards, Andy Gray

MEET THE TEAM MATCHDAY REPORTER Late Grouse winner seals Ashby comeback! Sam Grouse's late strike from the edge of the area gave Ashby Ivanhoe their sixth successive league victory, in a match that saw the visitors come from behind once again to take all three points. In a first half which saw both sides struggle to create chances, Ivanhoe broke the deadlock 10 minutes from the break when Liam Donaghy's header was saved by the goalkeeper, only for Nathan McAllister to turn home the rebound from close range, his 2nd goal in as many matches. The lead was short-lived however, in added time captain Darren Whitley headered home the equaliser to bring the score level. Perhaps a fair reflection of what had been an even half. Cradley's skipper was to double his tally seven minutes after the break. Once again Ashby failed to defend the set piece and Whitley was there to head home for a 2nd time. Defeat would have been a disaster for Ashby who's next three games are against fellow playoff challengers. The visitors worked hard to find an equaliser but for much of the half it seemed that the hosts may pick up a surprise three points, as Ashby could not carve out many clear-cut chances. lvanhoe's efforts would pay off eventually though when Luke Thorogood equalised with a quarter of an hour left to play, but Ashby would still have felt a draw would have been two points dropped and pushed on for a winner. The winner would come five minutes from time, as a fantastic team move was capped
off by Sam Grouse's low driven effort, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance and the hosts dejected. Ashby's players had been unhappy with the time wasting throughout the 2nd half by Cradley and it was clear by the huge reaction on the touch line that the visitors coaches felt that the goal was exactly what their side deserved. After the game Andy Gray expressed his delight with the result but was quick to turn his attention to the rematch with OJM, adding "If I was one of my players, I would be looking for a little bit of revenge". Ashby will be hoping to keep their strong run of form going against OJM on Saturday and avenge the 5-2 defeat they suffered earlier in the season.

ASHBY IVANHOE
CLUB HISTORY
A
shby Ivanhoe Football Club was founded in 1948 and play their home matches at the NFU Sports Ground, Lower Packington Road, Ashby de la Zouch in Leicestershire. This is the clubs new home from the beginning of the 2012/2013 season. Since being founded in 1948 up until the end of the 2011/2012 season the clubs previous home was at Hood Park also in Ashby de la Zouch. The club currently consists of Two adult teams and Twelve sides in the Junior section. The first team play in the Midland Football League Division One, with the Knights 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 reintroduced for this season and they play in the Burton Sunday League Division Four. The club’s junior sides ranging from Under 7’s through to Under 18’s play in the Burton Junior Football League and the Tamworth Junior Football Leagues. 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 2010/11 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 of the Pyramid system playing in the 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 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 will play at Step 7 in the Leicestershire Senior League Premier Division for 2015/2016. 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 where the aim again will be to push for promotion to Step 5. The 2016-17 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

ASHBY IVANHOE
CLUB HISTORY 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 2017-18 season saw the 1st team finish Seventeenth in the East midland Counties and the Reserves finished in the bottom Two and relegation to Division One. 2018-19 saw the 1st team finish in the bottom half of the East Midlands Counties Football League and The Reserves now called the Knights finish runners up in the Senior League Division One and promoted back to step 7 in the Senior League Premier Division. In the 2019-20 season Ashby first team faced a fresh challenge when they were moved to the Midland Premier League Division one by the FA in a shake up of the NLS, the season as we all know was expunged due to the pandemic. The
Reserves league also had all results expunged. As a club we are now looking to but our ground and have since the end of the previous season become a CIC club.
