As many as 10 Coaches rolled out of Spennymoor on Saturday morning carrying Supporters destined for Rochdale who would join up with those travelling by train and car where an estimated 1000 plus got to witness arguably the biggest day in Spennymoor Footballing History, the reward, a visit to Wembley for what will be most definitely the biggest day in the Clubs history.

A proud moment for Manager Graeme Lee, his coaching staff and a squad of players who despite an uneventful start to the season have given everything and set up a remarkable final month which could see Moors both win the FA Trophy and achieve promotion to the National League through the playoffs.

What ever happens under the Wembley arches or during the league run in, all supporters could not be prouder of the players, manager and coaching team.

As a Supporters Club we were thrilled to be able to play our part by providing affordable transportation along with support in accessing online tickets. We hope to be able to update supporters on Wembley travel arrangements soon. 

The Supporters Club continued their amazing work in the community by providing £250 in sponsorship to the Youth Theatre Group  in support of their upcoming show.

Long time Supporters Club member Barry Johnson who helps the group informed us of the great work the group do in the community and we were only too happy to help.

The Supporters Club are delighted to announce that they will be providing subsidised away travel to Rochdale AFC on Saturday the 5th April for the FA Trophy Semifinal clash with Rochdale AFC.

Travel is open for booking to members now and to the wider support from Monday10th March. The cost for travel is £20 per adult with a free child place available to each adult.

The Supporters Club offer a family friendly travel environment with no alcohol allowed on our coaches. We will however plan to arrive at Rochdale as early as possible so Supporters can enjoy a full day out.

For the avoidance of doubt this travel offer is brought to you exclusively by STFC Supporters Club and should not be confused with similar travel arrangements communicated by the Football Club.

A full itinerary will be announced at the earliest opportunity.

To book a seat or for more information ℹ️ please call 📞 Gary on 07712 468 202 or email 📧 gary.campbell16@btinternet.com

Brian Shippen has received the coveted Premier League Community Champion award for his services to Walking Football in Spennymoor.

I know from following the journey of the Walking Football Team, the positive impact both physically and mentally it has had on those who participate and Brian has been instrumental in building a camaraderie that is second to none.

Brian is a Supporters Club member who regularly contributes towards our activities and because of that and his approachable manner we have been more than happy to provide support through sponsorship when asked a sponsorship I’m sure will run well into the future.

Congratulations Brian on this thoroughly deserved honour. 👏👏👏

With Saturdays home fixture postponed, our scheduled members meeting will now take place next Saturday (18th January) from 12 noon.

Everything we planned will roll over, again weather permitting. 👊🏻

Members and guests were treated to a fantastic evening of entertainment on Saturday. The evening hosted jointly by Spennymoor WMC and STFC Supporters Club saw local 3 piece band Mac 3 perform at the WMC for the very first time. In addition we got to enjoy talented female vocalist Samantha Mac.

Around 200 people packed the venue with one lucky guest scooping £200 from the 50/50 draw.

The Supporters Club offer thanks to both WMC Staff and Supporters Club Volunteers as without their dedication and effort these nights would not be possible. Special thanks also go to all of the guests who contributed to a great night. 👏👏

The first competition for the 1001 Darts Team Competition from the Spennymoor Darts and Domino League, whose trophy is sponsored by STFC SUPPORTERS CLUB went right down to the wire earlier this month.

On the final evening of competition teams from Spennymoor Voltiguer & Spennymoor Town FC were tied on 16 wins from 20 forcing a winner takes all play off between the two teams.

In the end the Voltiguer proved too strong and became the first winners of the splendid trophy.

Pictured above is winning team Captain, Nathan Sugden, receiving the trophy from the League Secretary, and STFCSC Executive Committee member Gary Livett.

STFC SUPPORTERS CLUB are proud to sponsor this community competition and are grateful to Gary Livett for his efforts.

STFC Supporters Club were represented at the Remembrance Day Service in Spennymoor by veterans David Harrison and his wife Michelle.

Immaculately presented with medals on show a wreath was laid on our behalf in remembrance of those lost to conflict.

David is a long time member and contributor to our club and we were delighted when he accepted the invitation to represent us on this special day.

Spennymoor Town Supporters observed a minutes silence in memory of life long fan David Linford on Saturday ahead of the home fixture against Chorley.

In addition to the minutes silence a small plaque (see photo above) was affixed to the perimeter fence close to the area where David liked to park his scooter on home games.

Supporters Club Chairman Norman Dale on behalf of David’s family and friends would like to thank the football club for the opportunity to commemorate David’s life in this way.

A generous gathering of Spennymoor Town Supporters lined the pavement outside Wood View as their friend and fellow supporter David Linford passed the Brewery Field for the final time.

The cortège included a striking white carriage carrying David’s coffin which was draped with a flag bearing the colours of his beloved team, the carriage pulled elegantly by two beautiful black & white horses.

The well attended, standing room only service held at the Wear Valley Crematorium near Coundon told of  David’s passion for sport, sharing anecdotes of a lifelong commitment to Cricket, Football & Horse Racing.

As a Spennymoor Town Supporter David remained loyal right to the end, so it was fate perhaps, due to bizarre circumstances Spennymoor Town played on the evening of David’s funeral, with a 3-0 away victory a fiiting tribute to his legacy.

God bless you David, rest in peace and thanks for the memories. ⚪️⚫️

Spennymoor Town FC Supporters Club

We were devastated to learn of the passing of our good friend David Linford who died from a heart attack on Saturday.

Never has the term lifelong supporter been more fitting. For around 70 years Dave followed Spennymoor both United and town and rarely missed a minute. He’d been attending games from the age of 5 years.

In later life illness resulted in Dave losing both of his legs, yet still with the help of his Supporters Club friends remained a regular attendee at Spennymoor Town fixtures both at home and away regardless of the distance.

As a Supporters Club member Dave contributed kindly to all of our activities, will be much missed and forever remembered.

Everyone associated to STFC Supporters Club send our heartfelt condolences to Dave’s wife Heather, their family and friends at this time of grief.

We will update members on funeral arrangements as soon as they become available.
