Thornbury Town V Newent Town

THORNBURY TOWN CLUB HISTORY It is understood that football has been played in Thornbury from around 1898 and formerly known as Thornbury Sports became Thornbury Town FC in the early 1970’s.

narrowly to Dursley Town. 2001-02 season saw the management team of Dave Wiffill and Steve Burbage take the reins, which brought instant success winning the Bristol Premier Combination title by 13 points and a return to the Gloucestershire County League. This followed a run of thirteen consecutive league wins a club record, which still stands to this day. The league and cup double eluded the club when they were defeated by Sea Mills in the League Cup Final.

Mundy Playing Fields has been the home of the club since the end of World War Two although changing facilities were sited in local places such as the Exchange Hotel, which is now The Knot of Rope.

1968-69 we became founder members of the Gloucestershire County League and spectator figures in excess of 500 were regularly recorded. In 1971 the club finished third in the Gloucestershire County League and was accepted into the Western League. However, due to difficulties in bringing the facilities up to the leagues required standards were unable to take the next step up. Relegation to the Bristol Premier Combination League unfortunately followed in 1976-77.

In preparation for the return to County League football the summer of 2002 saw a lot of hard work undertaken on the Mundy facilities with the building of dug-outs, improved drainage and revamping of the dressing rooms. All this work appeared to have been worth while with the club establishing itself back in the Gloucestershire County league with a creditable 7th league position for the next three seasons. Silverware did come our way in 2003-04 when we defeated Taverners on penalties, after a 2-2 draw, to lift the Stroud Charity Cup. The 2003-04 season, also saw the formation of an Under-18’s side under the management of Terry Payton in order to maintain Youth development within the club and they gained entry to the Gloucester County Youth League.

The following 20+ years saw Thornbury Town strive to regain their former status, never really threatening to take the Premier Combination title. The only success during these lean years was reaching the final of the GFA Senior Amateur Cup in 1985-86 and 198990 unfortunately on both occasions loser’s medals were received.

Following a number of indifferent seasons when relegation back to the Bristol Premier Combination league was only just averted in 2006–07, a new management committee and first team management were appointed.

During the late 1990’s, the Club maintained its strong focus on developing local talent and this eventually bore fruit in 1999 when the final of the Stroud Charity Cup was reached, losing 6

a thornburytownfc.co.uk tf @thornburytownfc Dave Lippiatt took over as first team manager, coming to the club from Sea Mills Park bringing with him Carl Derosa as his assistant. With an initial three / four year strategy, which came to fruition during the 2009-10 season when after a steady first half to the season a tremendous winning run of ten league games saw the Surridge Gloucestershire County League title won for the first time in the clubs history.

highest league position in the Gloucestershire County Youth League finishing runners-up, which was a tremendous achievement for the team and managers Simon Pirie and Mark Franklin.

The 2014-15 season was a very successful season finishing 4th in the league and winning the Les James Cup for the first time in the Club’s history. Andy Davies continues to produce a team of quality which resulted in a third 4th-place in a row in Season 2016-17.

2010 also saw the milestone achievement of the long awaited coming together of the two local football clubs “Thornbury Town FC” and “Thornbury Falcons FC” now under one club management umbrella of Thornbury Town FC without losing the heritage and identity of Thornbury Falcons. This will further enhance the long term development within the local community for junior, youth and senior football.

2017-18 saw the club finally succeed in their quest win the Gloucestershire County League.

After a lot of work behind the scenes to gain planning permission for the required ground improvements, the club were accepted into the Hellenic League for the first time in their history.

In the 2010-11 season the final of the Les James Cup Final was reached, which resulted in a penalty shoot-out disappointment against Henbury Town. 2013-14 saw the U18’s in their

We look forward to the season ahead and wish all teams the best of luck in their endeavours.

Thornbury Town V Newent Town

NEWENT TOWN CLUB HISTORY Newent Town AFC was established in 1920, so it is now on the verge of the Centenary!!

They spend three years in Gloucestershire Northern Senior 1, with a best place finish of 3rd, picking up the League Cup twice in a row.

Through history Newent have played in the North Gloucester League and were promoted to the Gloucestershire Northern Senior League in the 1970’s. Then spend a while bouncing down and back up again, before finally reaching the Gloucester County League, staying there for six years.

Having spent considerable money and work on the facilities, Newent were invited into the Uhlsport Hellenic League system in division Two West.

Under the new Management of Ben Stringer and Martin Elton (former Newent players), they finished as Division Two West Champions at the first attempt.

After a tumble, the big push started in 2012 when Newent won the North Gloucestershire Premier Title on the last game of the season.

So the club starts 2018/19 at the highest level in their history, with much excitement and plenty of work still to complete by March 31 2019 to reach the ground grading requirement.

Then completing a back-to-back promotion from Gloucestershire Northern Senior 2 the very next season.

ABOUT ELMTREE GARDEN CONTRACTORS Elmtree were established in 1969 primarily by our current Chairman Keith Lynch to carry out domestic gardening work but rapidly expanded into carrying out landscaping within the housebuilding sector and small scale construction projects.

We think we are a little different from many other landscapers for many reasons. Above all though, we care about what we do and will not hand over a job to the Client until we are happy with it ourselves, it has to meet our own high standards and hopefully exceed the Client's.
