Cammell Laird 1907 - whatever Lairds achieve on the field this season, they will have to go some to match the performance that Programme Editor Patrick Burke produced in his GCSE's - 11 A*!!!  Congratulations to Patrick, and there is now some serious pressure on to produce a similar result in his A-levels.

West Didsbury & Chorlton - West welcomed a long distance supporter to Brookburn Road on Saturday as their matchday mascot.  William Maguire is visiting Didsbury for the summer with his Mum, brother and Dad, who is working on secondment in Wilmslow.     

St Helens Town - the club have announced a sponsorship deal with St Helens based indie rock band Stillia.  The band began as an acoustic trio in 2011 and have evolved into a four piece rock'n'roll band, influenced by a range of artists including The Beatles, The Who, Rolling Stones, Stone Roses, The Smiths, Oasis and many more.

Town Chairman John McKiernan said: "The lads have got a really busy few months ahead but will join us in October or November for one of our home games as match sponsors.

"Stillia have an ever growing following and have been huge hits around the UK, with performances in London, Hull and Liverpool, and were stars at the recent Westfield Street Festival in St Helens.

"We are delighted the lads have chosen to sponsor us, and in turn we will promote them vis our match programme and social media throughout the season".

1874 Northwich - the Greens have been presented with a cheque for £2800 which was raised from the staging of the annual 1874 Beer Festival.

Club Chairman Paul Stockton was presented with a cheque for £2800 from Andrew, Andy and Martin Dignum, and Alex Dickinson prior to the home game against Alsager Town, for which the 1874 Northwich Beer Festival Committee were match and match ball sponsors.
