Kidsgrove Athletic stand in solidarity with the other 700+ entrants of the FA Cup that weren’t consulted over scrapping replays. We are disgusted that the greatest cup competition in the world is being killed to satisfy the wealthiest 3% of the football pyramid.
#SavetheFACup
The FA Cup is the world’s greatest competition because the tiniest of minnows can face and beat the biggest giants of English football. Going to a higher division club and taking them to a replay is where the cup is at its most magical. The beauty of the cup must never fade.
Following this afternoon’s on pitch collapse of Anthony Malbon we have been informed he is conscious and talking .
We would once again thank everyone for their concern and support. I’m sure you will join with us in wishing Malbiniho a full and speedy recovery
The club are deeply saddened by the loss of kitman Graham CHIEFY Plant following a long illness. Chiefy joined the club in 1997 following the demise of his beloved Eastwood Hanley. Chiefy will be sorely missed by everyone at the club - he really was one of a kind
SCANDAL!!!
