Glossop North End
The Gaffer Good evening and welcome to The Royal British Legion Stadium for tonight’s home league fixture against Glossop North End FC. First of all may I welcome Glossop’s management team and all associated with the club. I hope you feel welcomed and have a safe journey home. Despite what the score line suggests I was pleased with Saturday’s performance and result. The game could have gone either way but overall I felt we defended well and created enough chances to score at least a couple of goals. We played a certain shape, particularly in the 1st half that required a lot of discipline and I was happy with how each player carried out their duties. Tonight however, is going to be a completely different test. Glossop are riding high both in the league and cups. They have scored goals for fun all season and have got the meanest defence in the league, conceding only 10 league goals all season. If you take into account that we scored 2 of those goals back in October then scoring, let alone winning, is going to be a major challenge.
We’re currently on a good run ourselves, having only lost 1 in 18 games. So far this season all squad members whether past or present have been fantastic. They’ve given there all in everything we have done and I hope this continues. I hope you enjoy the game and visit us again for our next home fixture UP THE GATE!

Murphy (42), (64)
WEST DIDSBURY 0 GATE RETURN TO WINNING WAYS AS MURPHY NETS TWICE Squires Gate continued their good form in 2015 and record yet another home win. This result means Gate have gone 17 games with only 1 loss which makes today's 3 points just as important and sees Gate remain unbeaten in 2015. Gate made two changes from Saturdays draw with St Helens, Chris Anderson and Harry Dunn coming in for Brett Ferguson and Alex Colquhoun, who both dropped to the bench. Gate's opposition for the day, West Didsbury and Chorlton, are on a good run of form there selves boasting a record of winning 3, drawing 2 and losing 1 of their last six games. The first half was largely dominated by the away side in which Gates back five produced an impressive display. The highlight of the first half came when the ball was scrambled of the line to deny a Didsbury goal. Both teams looked to get the ball forward quickly but neither possessed the quality to take the chances created. It wasn't until the 42nd minute when the break through happened. Alex Murphy bought down on the edge of the area and from the resulting free kick he found the back of the net. The Didsbury keeper will perhaps have been a little frustrated with his efforts to keep the ball out as Murphy's free kick seemed to go straight through him. Gate will have been the happier side going in to half time, it being fair to say that the goal came against the run of play. Half time Squires Gate 1-0 West Didsbury & Chorlton
Into the second half and Gate came out a much better side every player looked more motivated than in the first half. One thing that changed in the second half was Gate's formation, Gate changing to four across midfield allowing both Dunn and Mckendrick to move wider and stretch the game. The benefit of this was clear to see when on the 64th minute Alex Murphy found acres of space to run into to finish well for his and Gate's second of the day. Didsbury had the chance to get a goal back late on but Ben Fletcher was more than equal to the shot to make yet another fine save and to keep Gates clean sheet intact. Gate weathered a late storm of pressure from Didsbury and saw the game out by bringing Jack Cook on to sure up the defence and see out the win and three points. After the game Gate manager Dave McCann said; “I thought we were below par in the first half. They controlled the game and physically came out on top but we stuck in there and took our chance with the set piece. We were better in the second half and asked more questions of them. It was very pleasing to keep another clean sheet, it was another good team performance. Match report by Mark Ashmore

FAR FROM A BORE DRAW BUT GATE SETTLE FOR A POINT Squires Gate stayed fifth in the league and claimed yet another point on the road. Gate faced AFC Liverpool, a team they have already faced twice this season, both in the FA Vase and the league. Liverpool were going through a rough patch of form as of late and have picked up just 4 points in their last six games. They also boast the league's top goal scorer, Ryan Cox, who has scored 21 goals this season. Gate remained unchanged from Saturdays team that beat West Didsbury 2-0 the only change coming on the bench where new signing Robbie Bromley could make his debut after signing from Padiham. It was the home team who were on top in the opening exchanges of the game and it was clear to see after the first 10 minutes that this was going to be a close game. Gate had their first chance on the 15th minute when Dunn's cross from the left found Alex Murphy at the back post but his header didn't test the keeper and fell wide. Gate seemed to be struggling with their usual passing game in the first half with their quality of passing below par at times. Gate had another chance 5 minutes later when Alex Murphy was fouled on the edge of the area. It was Murphy who took the resulting free kick buy he could only find the wall and when the ball fell to Alex McKendrick but his shot went well over the bar. Gate were unlucky not to go ahead on 35 minutes Alex Murphy's shot was pushed out by the goalkeeper and deflected just wide by the defender. The last chance of the first half fell to
Gate looked alot more positive in the second half of this game and with just 5 minutes on the clock racked up 3 consecutive corners. Gate though struggled to find the back of the net from any of the set pieces. Gates next chance came on the counter, after Gate soaked up pressure from the home side they struck on the break but Buchan's shot was easily saved by the keeper. It was a tail of the two keepers in the space of two minutes both making game winning saves to keep their teams in the game. The home side almost took the lead through Ryan Cox but Gate's Ben Fletcher was more than equal to tip the shot over and keep Gate in the game. It was then Liverpool's turn to defend Billy McKenna sent in behind and his shot into the bottom corner looked destined to win Gate the game but keeper Ryan Jones got a strong hand to the ball to deflect it wide. Gate had the last chance of the game and could have won it the corner finding Westwood's head but his header fell wide of the post. After the game Gate manager Dave McCann said; I thought it was a very entertaining game despite the score line. We kept our shape and discipline really well especially in the first half and worked hard to make sure that they didn't have a clean attempt on goal. Both keepers pulled of a fantastic save towards the end that probably would have meant one of us would have gone
Glossop North End Founded in 1886, Glossop North End began by playing friendly amateur matches. They entered the Facts + Stats about G.N.E North Cheshire League in 1890 and introduced professional players in 1894. Their Chairman and Nickname: The Hillmen benefactor was local cotton magnate Sir Samuel Hill-Wood who later left to become Chairman of Founded: 1886 Woolwich Arsenal. In 1898, on their third application, they were admitted to the Football League. Ground: The Arthur Goldthorpe Stadium
In their first season, by finishing runners-up to Manchester City, they won promotion to the Football League Division 1. Unfortunately, they spent just one year in the division, the best victory being a 3- Capacity: 2,374 0 result against Nottingham Forest. Glossop played in League Division 2 until the end of the 1914/15 season, In 1908/09 reaching the quarter finals of the FA Cup where they lost to Bristol City in a replay. They ceased playing during Honours the latter part of the First World War but were reformed by Oswald Partington MP, who had been Football League Division 2 club captain in the 1890’s. Runners Up: 1898-99
Between the wars the club played in the Lancashire Combination and the Manchester League, of which they were champions in 1927/28. They also won the Gilgryst Cup on three occasions. Matches again ceased during the Second World War, Glossop rejoining the Manchester League afterwards. They won the Gilgryst Cup for a fourth time in 1949. In 1955 they moved from their original ground at North Road to the present home at Surrey Street. Since then they have played in the Lancashire Combination, the Manchester and the Cheshire Leagues before becoming founder members of the North West Counties League in 1982.

Glossop have spent most of the time in the First (now Premier) division, although much of it was spent at the lower end fighting against relegation, whilst the club itself fought for survival, victim of a criminally corrupt owner in the 1980s. It was only the hard work of board members and supporters NWCFL Division 2 Winners: 1990-91 kept the club afloat after the disgraced regime. There was a little success — the club was Manchester Premier Cup winners in 1997 and 1998, and Derbyshire Cup winners in 2000-01. Manchester FA Premier More recently though, things have improved for the Hillmen. 2008/09 saw the biggest day in the history of the club after Steve Young & Terry Hincks’ side embarked on a terrific FA Vase run which saw North End reach the final at Wembley. They played in every single round of the competition leaving some fantastic memories for supporters along the way... none more dramatic than the 123rd minute equalizer in the semi-final against Chalfont St. Peter. This led to a penalty shootout where the Hillman seized the opportunity to head down Wembley Way.

Attendances Whilst the final saw a disappointing result — losing 2-0 to Whitley Bay — the run awakened interest in the Hillmen throughout the town. There is now a thriving Supporters Club, which has funded Biggest Home Attendance: makeovers to the ground and helped generate interest in the club home and away. 10,736 vs Preston North End
Manager Chris Willcock is the man appointed to the task, and he had a very exciting first season in charge in 2013-14, taking the club to a 3rd place finish – it’s highest in the NWCFL – and a Derbyshire Senior Cup Final. Optimism is high for 2014-15 and everyone at the club is hopeful that Glossop North End can now realise plans for an exciting future as a club at the heart of the community.

PREVIOUS MEETINGS v GLOSSOP N.E Saturday 6th April 2013 Squires Gate 2-2 Glossop North End In this NWCFL encounter, it was a game of two halves. Gate started the game brightly and mounted most of the early pressure on the visitors. It was the hosts surprisingly who broke the deadlock from a Max Rothwell penalty. Glossop came out the better side in the second half, but soon found themselves 2-0 down after 51 minutes. So the visitors now had a mountain to climb with less then 40 minutes to do so. On the 65th minute, Glossop pulled one back after a mix up in the Gate penalty area which allowed McGregor to score. Squires Gate couldn’t hold on to the lead and ended up conceding an equaliser. Saturday 7th December 2013
Squires Gate 0-1 Glossop North End This game was always going to be a tough ask for Dave McCann’s young Squires Gate side. But for 70 minutes, the game looked like it was winnable. The first half was equal with the home side looking more solid then it had been in previous games. Jack Sowerby was causing problems for Glossop as he was running at their defence but unable to find the breakthrough. The second half saw a more determined Glossop, who found their match winner on the 71st minute as Kieran Lugsden pounced on a defensive mistake to win it for Glossop. Saturday 25th January 2014 Glossop North End 5-1 Squires Gate A month on from the home fixture, Gate travelled down to Glossop. Again, it was going to be a tough fixture for Gate but it was them who took the lead after 7 minutes through Charlie Russell. However, Glossop North End had picked up 25 points from nine games and were soon back into the game. The second half saw North End gaining a lot more confidence and this reflected in the final score as Kieran Lugsden and Tom Bailey played a part in their five goals scored in the second half.

Editor's View Good Evening and welcome to The Royal British Legion Stadium for today’s NWCFL encounter with Glossop North End. The original game was supposed to take place last month but the game was postponed due to severe weather and a waterlogged pitch. But since then, Squires Gate have continued their fantastic run of form that has now been extended to 18 games with only one loss. Funnily enough, it was after the game against Glossop at the start of October that started the record breaking run and hopefully it won’t end today. In that game, Squires Gate started the match well and actually took a two goal lead through Jack Sowerby. However, Glossop showed their resilience and pulled the game back around to win 3-2. On that note, speaking of two goal leads, what happened to Blackpool on Saturday? Being a Watford fan myself, I was shocked at the half time result and would of taken a draw, but then was over the moon with the final result which was 7-2 for those who didn’t know. Sorry Blackpool fans. Today’s opponents are also on their own run, and have an identical record to Squires Gate of losing once in 18 games in all competitions. However, the visitors have bagged near enough 3 times the amount of goals, including 6-0 wins over Colne and West Didsbury, and a 5-0 win over Bootle. They clearly know where the goal is. Top scorer Kieran Lugsden will also be looking to add to his tally of 21 goals today, with a good record of finding the net against Gate. It is set to be a very entertaining game here tonight, and I’m sure both sides will be wanting to take maximum points. I hope all supporters, players and committee of Glossop North End have a safe journey home. Enjooooooy the game!

NWCFL NEWSLETTER Glossop North End are now the League's sole representatives in the FA Carlsberg Vase, after a terrific 1-0 win in their 4th Round tie at Worksop Town. An extra time goal from Jason Carey earned victory for the Hillmen, and they will now face Dunston UTS of the Northern League at Surrey Street on Saturday 7th February. However, the League's other representatives in the competition, Chadderton, bowed out after a 5-0 home defeat to AFC Mansfield. Elsewhere, there were plenty of other clubs going about the business of collecting league points, and in the Premier Division, Runcorn Linnets took advantage of Glossop's attention being focussed on cup glory by extending their lead at the top of the table to 15 points. However, they were made to work hard for a 2-1 win over Nelson at the Millbank Linnets Stadium, with Mark Houghton grabbing the winner with just seven minutes remaining. Ashton Athletic stay in third place after a 2-2 draw at Bootle, although the Yellows were 2-0 up through goals from Paul Watson and Isaac Kusaloska before the Bucks staged a revival to earn a draw through a Jamie Hay strike and an own goal. Runcorn Town were the day's highest scorers, with Paul Shanley and Curtis Cummins both scoring twice in a 6-1 win at Barnoldswick Town, a result that keeps Barlick in the bottom three. Squires Gate remain in fifth place after a goalless draw at AFC Liverpool, two points ahead of Colne who won 3-1 at Congleton Town. Joe Garvin and Andrew Tinker both scored in the last 16 minutes to secure the win for the visitors.
