With equal pleasure, I can also confirm that Ed Kell will be Chalky’s Vice Captain for the 2019-20 season.  

We are most fortunate to have two key players, with immense experience and rugby know how to help steer us through an important promotion focussed season.
Congratulations to you both.
They get along on the pitch really well, looking forward to the upcoming season"

Chalky's first game in charge will be the pre season friendly against last season's promotion rivals West Hartlepool on Saturday 17th August



Nathan Williams named Wanderers Captain.

While the news was breaking about Tom White's appointment as first team captain, Wanderers manager Ryan Moore has news of his own. 

"With all the announcements I am happy to announce that Nathan Williams will be the Wanderers Captain with Chris Darley being vice captain. Let’s all build on what we have achieved this year and finish with two league wins. FC"

The Wanderers had a great season last time out finishing 2nd in the league and reaching a cup final. Good luck to all our players ahead of another season with Northern FC
