    National league North 2021-22

    Yeah feels like a waste of money to me going pro this early. Should buy us a smooth passage up through a couple more divisions but might leave the resources looking a bit depleted by the time we reach tier 6.

    So are Macc it's just been announced, as crazy as it seems for a tier 8 team....

    National league North 2021-22

    Yeah brilliant for us, perhaps not the most technical player but always worked his socks off which is what Sir John likes. Better on the wing than left back where he chipped in with a few goals (seemed to only ever score hattricks mind!).

    For whoever cares, the return of MFC

    Savage definitely isn't your average director of football and he does overstep the mark at times. He can't help getting involved in absolutely everything even if it's not his job. But for all his faults he puts an awful lot of work into the recruitment, scouting & publicity side of things and...

    4 up , 3 down

    Yeah we're cruising to the title at this point. We've done a fair bit of needless panic buying though in my opinion - basically anyone who plays well against us we just sign them for ourselves!

    Our league's gained an extra automatic promotion spot. Happy days :cool1:

    For whoever cares, the return of MFC

    Those fans should be ashamed, spoilt what should have been a great day for the club. Unfortunately it's a big learning point for all involved - local derbies even at this level attract hangers on and you end up with ugly scenes like these.

    For whoever cares, the return of MFC

    Yeah it's been a real revelation getting 2000+ home fans even in midweek! For casual fans the better facilities & cheaper tickets will be a big pull. For us hardcore lot, the change of ownership means we can go to games with a clear conscience that our money isn't fuelling a dodgy businessman...

    Step 3 and below football

    NWCL fixtures are out and we host Burscough in our first ever competitive game on 31st July, followed by a short trip to Winsford. They're even letting us play in the FA Cup this season which is a nice surprise.

    Stickied Confirmed Signings 2023/24

    Came through our youth team and was back up to Andy Halls at right back for a few seasons. He was very young with us but he was a steady and assured defender. Unfortunately for him he made a last minute clanger in a match which arguably cost us a play off place, which Askey never forgave him for...

    Stickied Confirmed Signings 2023/24

    Seems to just want a couple of seasons as a regular starter as he's been a fringe player with most of his recent clubs (Wrexham aside). The cynic in me says that it's a complete waste of money for the level we're currently at, but an outstanding signing all the same. I do hope we're saving some...

    The ‘who is joining us from L2 next season then’ thread

    40 years old now and his first taste of semi-pro football but he should really be able to boss games at 9th/10th tier level! And don't get me wrong, I want us back in the NL eventually but honestly it's the journey itself that I'm most looking forward to. Bit of a culture shock for some but...

    The ‘who is joining us from L2 next season then’ thread

    Macclesfield FC all set up and ready to go, just waiting to be put in a league then all systems go with player signings etc. Local businessman as chairman, Danny Whitaker player-manager, and Robbie Savage heavily involved as well. Plan has been to invest heavily this year on the facilities and...

    Coronavirus

    Another reason is that while the debt may seem easy to pay off when you're in the NL divisions, if a club drops down a couple of divisions where there is no longer any serious money coming in, they may struggle to pay it off.

    The National League resolution vote

    I mean that's the most likely scenario as it stands in the North and South divisions if the leagues below them are curtailed. Or if the National League does stop then it'll be like that in League 2. Got to draw the line somewhere.
