They could use the Flask cafe as a neutral venue, used to be bit of a battleground in the mods v bikers days.
Was just a friendly John. I am always happy win draw or lose Even when I went to Bournemouth on tiger travel and city lost 6-1 Everyday is a good day one . Take care John , ( and everyone else )
Enjoyed watching this short collection the other day Not mentioned on here of course, but from memory, I'm sure I remember Warnock's first league season survival target was 50 pts - which they easily achieved.
Researching something else, I came across something that said Featherstone Rovers bought two of their stands from "the defunct Scarborough football club". There's a picture as well. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/39258431
Warnock is a god in Scarborough . I went to Scarboroughs first home game in the league v wolves. I think I must have been the only one that knew that wolves fans had a bad reputation because North yorkshire police and the Club had no idea about it . I remember when they flogged the two stands. And when the club went bust and most of what was going on with the rebirth through the local paper but wasn't that interested. If it hadn't been for THE ****TY ALLAMS I would not have stopped going to City . The coach from Filey would STILL be running to all home games at City Think from a full coach or nearly full only 4 still go to City. I am looking forward to the new season starting on Aug 18th Just 1more friendly on Saturday at home to Frickley. I will be going .
Last pre season game yesterday 11th aug Scarborough Athletic 2 Frickley Athletic 2 Scarborough made a slow start and Frickley took a 1-0 lead Towards the end of the first half Frickley players looked knackered and James Walshaw equalised near end of first half ( he scored 42 goals last season , half for Farsley Celtic . Punch up involving all the players resulting in just one yellow card and Frickley manager being sent to the stand...he only went on pitch to help seperate the players Second Half Boro on top and went 2-1 up .great saves at both ends kept it at 2-1 before Frickley scraped an equalising goal near the end. 421 at The Flamingo Land stadium for what was nothing more then a kick around practice game Great day as usual Got my ticket for Whitby at home on Bank Holiday Monday Whitby have been sent 300 tickets and are being put at opposite end to The Shed end Scarborough A v Hednesford in Evo Premier league Sat 18 aug Scarborough H v Matlock on Tue 21
That's an artificial pitch right Filey? And what - they do concessions on coach prices?! They obviously don't know how to run a business.
Yep fake grass . So far only one game called off and that was because the other team couldn't get to Scarborough. Lots of postponed games in these leagues and lots of pitches like plowed fields in winter. I wasnt a fan of these pitches but the club get to rent it out for other events. The pitch seems to act just like normal grass and local schools get to use the pitch at times and I think it makes for better games then in most of the pitches in the Evo stick league Yep half price for under 16s on away day travel...IF there looks like empty seats will be available they let under 11s on for free. I guess Adult price is usually a bit higher to help with the 16s and under price . Good idea really. Fans matter in the lower leagues . Well they do own the club . With luck I will be doing some away games this season.
Whilst I was back home I went to watch my grandson play on one of the University 3G or 4G pitches. I had a few kicks of the ball on it and was surprised how close to real grass it was.
Evo Stik PREMIER League season kicked off today Hednesford 0 v 1 SCARBOROUGH Att 495 Warrington 0-2 farsley. Att 312 Grantham 1-1 bamber Bridge Att 253 Hyde 1-0 basford. Att 416 Marine 1-1 v N. Ferriby. Att 359 Matlock 4-0 lancaster. Att 359 Nantwich 1 v O gainsborough. Att 379 South Shields 2-1v witton. Att 1,677 Stalybridge 0-0 mickleover. Att 374 Whitby 1-0 buxton. Att 282 Workington 1-0 stafford. Att 421 Did not go but it seems Scarborough was well on top first half and went on 1-0 at half time Second half Hednesford had a man sent off and were on top with Scarborough playing counter attack and missing the best chance of the game when Walshaw thumped a shot well over the bar Annan had a good game Not sure who scored for Scarborough but it wasn't Annan Approx 200 plus a few more away fans ( so I was told ) Tuesday is our first home game v Matlock Can't wait for Tuesday . Think we will get a good home gate. South Shields home attendance was great today over 1,600 South Shields and Scarborough both promoted last season will be the best supported clubs .
It would be good if they could get promoted as the next league is National League North. I feel sure South Shields will go up and Scarborough might finish in a play off place Scarborough seem to have signed some good players 6 of them from the national league North and the National league Fingers crossed they do well Still as you know Mr Tash what ever the score I have a good time . Hopefully I will do some away games and one or two city away games. All the best
Scarborough Athletic 2 Matlock Town 2 First home game of the season and the Seadogs went 1-0 up after just 2 mins..Scarborough well on top the rest of the first half but blew a couple of must score chances Second half and Scarborough made it 2-0 inside 5 mins.. Again missed chances by Scarborough should have seen them well ahead Last 15 mins it was Matlock playing the best and they score two goals , the equaliser came in the final minutes of injury time. Twats But it was a good game and would not have been out of place in div 2 or div 1 Attendance 1,280 ( next highest tonight was 490 at Gainsborough
