History

Founded in 1884, Nantwich has a long and proud football tradition. Early years were spent playing friendly and cup matches but in 1891 the club joined the Shropshire & District League, finishing as runners-up in the first season.

Nantwich moved into the stronger Combination the following season and on 15 October 1892 hosted Liverpool in the Merseysiders’ first ever FA Cup match (Liverpool won 4-0). Before World War 1, Nantwich also had spells in a variety of leagues including the North Staffs & District, the Crewe & District, Manchester and Lancashire Combination leagues. The Combination was a minor league during the early days of English football. ... is the 288th day of the year (289th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Liverpool Football Club are an English professional football club based in Liverpool, Merseyside, who play in the Premier League; they are historically the most successful club in the history of English football, having won more trophies than any other English club. ... This article is about the English FA Cup. ...

In those early years, the club were honoured to have A.N.Hornby as President. Hornby captained England at rugby and cricket and, as well as being President, turned out for the club on a number of occasions.

After the war, the club became founder members of the Cheshire County League in which they were perennial strugglers, though they did finish 6th in 1921-22. The season before, a record home attendance of 5121 watched the Dabbers play Winsford United in the Cheshire Senior Cup at their temporary home at Kingsley Fields. Ironically, this is the location where the club is now looking to build a new modern stadium and move to for the 2005-06 season. Winsford United are a football team based in the Cheshire town of Winsford, near the England/Wales border. ...

Success, though, came in the Cheshire Senior Cup in 1933 when the Dabbers lifted the trophy after beating ICI (Alkali) at the Drill Field, Northwich in front of 8,000 fans. After the Second World War, the Dabbers joined the newly-founded Mid Cheshire League and in 1952, the club entered the inaugural FA Youth Cup competition. Drawn against Manchester United in the second round, the young Dabbers crashed 23-0 on a November evening at the Cliff training ground to a United youth line up including names such as Duncan Edwards, David Pegg, Albert Scanlon and Ron Cope (who, ironically, joined Nantwich in the twilight of his career).

However, the mid-1960s saw considerable success and in the 1963-64 season the club completed a treble, winning the Mid Cheshire League, League Cup and Cheshire Amateur Cup under Manager Alan Ball (senior). The Mid Cheshire League is a football competition based in England. ...

According to former player the late Mike Brookes: “Mr Ball trained us very hard and taught us techniques that were new to us - or were rusty. He made us think ‘the game’ more. “One ploy was when we were attacking – for me as centre forward to mark the centre half out of the game. The other forwards could still use me for the one-two wall pass to break through. I could still spin off the centre forward to join the attack. I did get a few bruises this way ! “At a corner – the other forwards would move away from the penalty spot, thus taking markers with them. I would be way out on the edge of the penalty box – running in at speed when the corner was taken – hoping the kick (as planned) ended up at head height on the penalty spot. “Mr Ball used the fear factor to keep us ‘on the ball’. He would bring along ‘reputation’ players to training or ‘sign them on’ and have them turn up for matches; so we thought we could be dropped and sometimes we were.”

Nantwich rejoined the Cheshire League in 1968 and in 1976 the Dabbers beat NPL champions Runcorn 5-4 in the Cheshire Senior Cup Final at Gresty Road in front of 2237. Five years later in May 1981 a crowd of 1078 saw Nantwich clinch the Cheshire League by beating eventual runners up Hyde United in the penultimate game of the season 2-1.

1982 saw Nantwich become founder members of the North West Counties Football League. Unfortunately Nantwich had the unenviable honour of finishing bottom and were relegated to Division 2 where the club remained (except for one season in Division 3 in 1986) until 1989 when the Dabbers were promoted to Division One. Since then, Town have maintained consistent mid-table form. The one exception was in 1993-94 season when they finished in their highest ever NWCFL placing of fourth. However the honours were to come on the cup front in 1994-95 when Nantwich defeated Trafford 1-0 in the League Cup Final on a memorable April evening at Gigg Lane Bury. This success atoned for the disappointment in 1993 when at the same venue Nantwich lost 2-1 to Burscough in another tight final. Ex-Stoke City player Nigel Gleghorn was appointed Manager in November 2001 and he helped steer Nantwich to a top six finish in 2003, when the club also attained the prestigious FA Charter Standard Community Club award. Gleghorn left the club in the 2004 close season and former Crewe, Burnley and Barnsley defender Steve Davis was appointed as Head Coach.

Davis has proved to be the most successful manager in the club's history. Ably assisted by former Nantwich and Macclesfield striker Peter Hall, Davis led Nantwich to FA Vase glory in 2005/06 when the Dabbers beat Hillingdon Borough 3-1 in the Final at Birmingham City’s St Andrews stadium. En route to the final, Nantwich kept a clean sheet in 8 out of 9 ties including impressive victories over Buxton (1-0) and Cammell Laird (5-0 in the two-legged semi-final). Andy Kinsey hit two goals in the final, but dislocated his shoulder celebrating the second. Following the victory, the club paraded the Vase in an open-top bus.

In the league, Nantwich equalled their highest ever finish (4th), but bettered that following season when they finished third and secured promotion to the Northern Premier League. During the 2006-07 season Nantwich recorded their highest post-war league attendance (1,536) against FC United. To sign off the home campaign, a crowd of 1,071 saw the last game at 123 year old Jackson Avenue ground when Nantwich beat Squires Gate 5-2 on 28 April 2007. In the 2007-08 season Nantwich Town finished third in the Northern Premier League Division One South. This qualified them for the play-offs in which they came from behind to beat Grantham Town 2-1 and then beat Sheffield 4-1 on penalties after a 2-2 draw in front of a season's best crowd of 1,354. This double promotion means they will play the 2008-09 season in the Northern Premier League Premier Division. The Northern Premier League logo. ...
