Good Evening and Welcome to the Greenfields Sports Association arena for tonight’s match against Warrington Rylands FC. I would like to welcome the players officials and supporters of Warrington Rylands to Shropshire and hope you have an enjoyable evening and a safe return home.

We undertook the 360 mile round trip to Workington on Saturday and were beat 2-1 by a very good side. A superb free kick and a dubious penalty costing us a share of the points.

A good team performance with excellent work ethic and a man of the match performance by George Lewis were some positives taken from the match. Tonight, we are also playing a side that will almost certainly be in the mix for promotion come April next year. We will have to be at the races from the kick off to the final whistle to gain any points from tonight’s match.

Thanks for your support,

WARRINGTON RYALNDS www.rylandsfc.co.uk

Warrington Rylands 1906 Football Club was formed as a local works (wire manufacturer) team in 1906 as part of the Rylands Recreation Club whose clubhouse and grounds on the eastern side of Warrington at a site in between Gorsey Lane and Orford Road was opened by Rylands Brothers, owners of the famous Wireworks to provide sports and leisure facilities for their employees.

Over the years Rylands have played in several competitions including the Lancashire Combination, Warrington and District League, Mid Cheshire League, Cheshire League, North West Counties and now compete at the highest level in our history, the Northern Premier League West. During this time our trophy cabinet has seen success in, the Warrington Guardian Cup (5 times), Liverpool Challenge Cup, Lancashire Amateur Shield, Mid Cheshire League and Cup, North West counties Division 1 North, and North West Counties Champions of champions cup.

The team also played in the Lancashire Combination’s war time Auxiliary Section during the 1918/19 season finishing 5th in the table.

Prior to joining the North West Counties League in 2018 Rylands played in the Warrington & District League, Liverpool County Combination and the Mid-Cheshire League. They were champions of each of these leagues winning the Warrington League in 1957/58 and 1958/59, 1957/58 was an especially good season for the club as they completed a treble in bringing back the Warrington League title, the Guardian Cup and Liverpool Cup and continued with success in the the Liverpool Combination in 1960/61.

Further success followed in the Mid-Cheshire League in 1980/81 and 1983/84. Losing just once when winning the Mid-Cheshire League in 1983/84 Rylands thought they were on their way to Wembley when they entered the last 32 of the FA Vase with wins over Blackpool Mechanics, Maghull, Atherton LR and Rainworth MW. But it was against the latter that saw an appeal against the length of the pitch, when it was found to be just over a yard short, a replay was ordered which Rainworth won 1-0.

A barren run of years followed which was ended when a newly formed youth team lifted the Warrington & District Youth Cup with an extra time win over local rivals Warrington Town. This provided the springboard for senior honours in 1993 with the Reserves winning the Mid Cheshire League Division Two Cup with an extra time win over Knutsford.

Prior to the start of the 1996/97 season the club formed a link with a local junior club – Beechfield – with these youth sides bringing trophies in to the club winning the Warrington & District Youth Cup in 1997, and in 1999 both the Warrington & District League and Cup. These young players rejuvenated the club and in 1999-00 the first team reached the Mid-Cheshire League Cup Final only to lose out to Knutsford in a penalty shoot-out after being reduced to nine men with twenty minutes of extra time left. Season 2001/02 would see a surprise end to the campaign. An undefeated run of nine games saw the first team snatch runners-up spot on goal difference.

The club then once more fell on hard times and in 2008 amalgamated with Crosfields FC to form a new club, Crosfields / Rylands FC. Under the new name both the first and reserve teams reached Mid-Cheshire League Cup Finals, unfortunately losing in both Prior to the start of the 2012/13 season, the club resumed the name of Rylands FC with the backing of a new sponsor, Triple S Sports & Entertainment Group – led by former Rylands player Paul Stretford. The first team went on to win the Warrington Guardian Cup in 2015, whilst also being Mid-Cheshire League Cup runners up in 2013, 2014 and 2018.

WARRINGTON RYALNDS www.rylandsfc.co.uk

After restoring stability to the first and reserve teams, the clubs executive agreed to change direction and grow a junior and youth section. In 2016 successful local junior club Fife Rangers joined bringing seventeen teams and over two hundred players under the Rylands Football Club banner, including two female teams. A little later the clubs elite development team was formed, Rylands U21’s who joined the NW Development league.

In June 2018 Dave McNab was appointed joint first team manager alongside local lad Stuart Wellstead as player manager, at the club and set about transforming the team and ambitions for the club.

First step was to become part of the FA non-league pyramid by gaining entry in to the North West Counties League, which was achieved when the club were invited to apply for a position in the North West Counties Division 1 South for season 2018-19 During the pre-season McNab and Wellstead commenced a major recruitment drive to build a team that would be competitive at a higher level. The recruitment combined with excellent preparation and outstanding performances on the pitch saw the club win the North West Counties Division 1 South Championship and also go on to win the division one champion of champion’s trophy, beating division 1 north champions, Longridge Town 3-0.

For season 2019-20 McNabb took sole charge of the team and the club changed its name to Warrington Rylands 1906 FC as a mark of its ambition to continue with its ambition to reach the highest level it could. The name change ensured the Rylands name would remain synonymous with the club, whilst also recognising the club had played and been a part of Warrington and Rylands since 1906, still playing on the same Ground.

In preparation of playing at the highest level it had ever reached major infrastructure took place at the Gorsey Lane Ground with the building of seated stands, covered terracing, on ground changing rooms, spectator toilets, committee room and provision of in ground food and drink. Warrington Rylands 1906 FC Gorsey Lane Ground was ready to take its place in the North West Counties Premier League for season 201920 with the unveiling of the newly opened Ron Stretford Stand the clubs former Treasurer and the Ian Finchett Pavilions the clubs former Chairman.

The club were denied back to back promotions to the Northern Premier League due to the Covid Pandemic that caused the 2019-20 season was abandoned with the club sitting second in the North West Counties Premier League. Similarly in season 2020-21 the season was curtailed with the club in top position in the league.

Season 2020-21 however, turned out to be one of the most important season’s in the clubs history winning the FA Vase at Wembley 3-2 against Binfield FC with Centre Forward Elliott Nevitt scoring a hat trick.

Having broken the clubs previous record of a last 32 place against West Auckland the team, due to the Covid Pandemic entered in to a weekly round of FA Vase Cup games beating the 2019-20 FA Vase Hebburn Town Winners in the quarter final at Gorsey Lane only 1 week after the North East team had beaten Consett Town at Wembley, in the Semi Final Rylands beat Walsall Wood 2-1 to send them to Wembley for the final the following Saturday.

The Club went in to overdrive to sell 1500 tickets in 4 days which are the biggest gate receipts in Rylands history, as well as breaking other records by becoming the first Warrington football team in the history of the game to win a national tournament.

Season 2020-21 also saw the club enter the FA Cup which saw the team make the second qualifying round at home against York City, live on the BBC and in front of a covid restricted sell-out crowd of 300, the furthest the club has ever achieved in the FA Cup.
