Gedling Town Football Club was a semi-professional football club based in Stoke Bardolph, Nottinghamshire, England. Founded in 1985 as R & R Scaffolding, the works team of a construction firm from Netherfield, Gedling played its first four seasons in the Notts Amateur League until the 1990–91 campaign saw the club join the nationwide league system. At the time of its dissolution in 2011 due to insolvency, Gedling competed in the East Midlands Counties Football League (EMCFL) Premier Division at the tenth tier of the English football pyramid.

Gedling played its home matches at the Riverside Stadium from at least 1990. Before transferring to the EMCFL in 2008–09, the club competed in the Northern Counties East Football League (NCEL) Division One and three Central Midlands Football League (CML) divisions before that. At its height, Gedling played at the ninth tier between 2000–01 and 2003–04. National tournament records included reaching the third qualifying round of the FA Cup in 2003–04 and the fourth round of the FA Vase in 2003–04, 2004–05, and 2005–06. The team were nicknamed "The Ferrymen" and their colours were primarily yellow and blue.

History

Notts Amateur League, 1985–1990

Netherfield, one-time home of the construction firm R & R Scaffolding

Gedling Town was founded as R & R Scaffolding in 1985,[a] the works team of a construction firm from Netherfield.[1][5] Beginning in Division Three of the Notts Amateur League, the team opened the 1985–86 season with a 5–1 win over SSR.[6] Positive results were consistent throughout the campaign; according to the Nottingham Football Post, the team "thrashed" Celtic Athletic 9–1, while Santos "were no match" after losing to them 4–0.[7][8] Promoted to Division Two, 1986–87 saw R & R Scaffolding reach the final of the League's Junior Cup.[9][10] The team lost on penalties to Clifton Town after their opponents equalised with the last kick of the game to make it 3–3 after extra time.[10]

Prowess in the Cup was matched by League success, delivering on slim promotion hopes to ascend to Division One ahead of 1987–88.[11][12] Despite prolific goal-scoring from individual players,[13][14] the club was not promoted consecutively.[15] In 1988–89, R & R Scaffolding contested the final of the League's Senior Cup, but lost 1–0 to Pelican Reserves after enjoying most of the possession.[16] The team were promoted as champions to the Premier Division ahead of 1989–90,[b] their last season in amateur football.[4][17]

Central Midlands League, 1990–2000

For 1990–91, R & R Scaffolding changed its name to Gedling Town and entered the Central Midlands Football League (CML) Division One at the twelfth level of the English football league system.[2][18] Becoming champions on the first attempt, Gedling then competed in the CML Premier Division (South) at tier eleven in 1991–92.[2][18] The team led the League for much of the season before finishing runners-up to Slack & Parr,[2][19] but were still promoted to the CML Supreme Division at tier ten.[18] During the campaign, Gedling enjoyed what would remain its biggest ever victory with an 11–0 win against Radford.[4] The 1992–93 season saw Gedling host Football League First Division side Notts County in a friendly. Staged in November "under gruelling conditions", Notts won the match 2–1.[20] Manager Mel Oliver stood down in February and was replaced by Dave Sands and Cameron Holroyd.[21][22] Finishing seventh in the League, Gedling captured the Wakefield Floodlit Cup in May with a 2–0 win over Sheffield Aurora.[2][18]

Ahead of 1993–94, Gedling again met Notts County in a friendly; they lost 8–0, with Notts forward Gary McSwegan netting four.[23] A month later, the club entered the FA Vase for the first time, eventually losing 3–0 in a preliminary round replay to Walsall Wood.[18][24] By November, the team had lost just one of their nine previous games in the League and went on to lead the division in the new year.[25][26] Results slipped thereafter, and Gedling finished in fifth.[18][27] This season marked the arrival of full-back Gary Ball from Arnold Town, a player who later held the all-time club record for appearances with 216.[4][28] The 1994–95 campaign proved difficult; manager Dave Sands conceded the League title in January and was sacked to be replaced by Ray Sully.[29][30] Gedling closed the season in tenth.[18]

In 1998–99, Gedling recorded its biggest ever competitive defeat at Hucknall Town (ground pictured)

Gedling lacked squad depth for 1995–96 but under Sully enjoyed a seven-match unbeaten run by December.[31] He was replaced in the new year by his assistant, player-manager Jamie Brodie.[31][32] A mid-table finish in tenth followed.[18] The club again reached the final of the Wakefield Floodlit Cup, but went down 3–1 to Harworth Colliery in both fixtures of a two-legged tie.[2] Under the joint management of Brodie and Andy Kirk, Gedling earned a positive 1–1 draw in a friendly against Notts County before 1996–97.[33][34] After what Brodie deemed a "shameful display" against Dunkirk in March,[35] the team had found form by the following month, going on to finish in fourth.[18][36] Gedling became champions of the CML Supreme Division in 1997–98 by finishing 16 points above the runners-up.[37][c] In the process, forward Robbie Orton set an unsurpassed club record for goals in a season with 42.[38][d]

Despite winning the division, the club was not promoted due to inadequate facilities.[37] Brodie and new assistant Everton Marsh strengthened the squad in pre-season, recruiting former Football League forward Gary Lund.[37] While aiming for back-to-back championships, 1998–99 saw Gedling knocked off the top of the table in October.[40] Poor results ensued; a 6–1 loss at Hucknall Town would remain the club's biggest ever competitive defeat.[4] In March, Brodie and Marsh resigned to be replaced by caretaker player-managers John Flint and John Humphries for the rest of the season.[41] The club was disappointed to finish in sixth.[2][18] Paul Elrick and assistant Junior Glare were appointed managers for 1999–2000 as the team "lost out narrowly" 2–1 to Football League First Division side Grimsby Town in a pre-season friendly.[42][43] Finding good League form in December but dogged by injuries,[44][45] Gedling finished in fourth.[18] However, the club took the CML League Cup with a 3–2 win over South Normanton Athletic.[2]

Northern Counties East League, 2000–2008

Lee Wilson managed the club in 2007–08

Gedling transferred to the Northern Counties East League (NCEL) Division One at tier nine for 2000–01, after which the club was pleased to finish in fifth.[2][18] Reaching the final of both the Notts Senior Cup and the NCEL League Cup, Gedling also made its inaugural appearance in the FA Cup before losing 3–0 to Hinckley United in the first qualifying round.[2][18] The team won the League in 2001–02, but as in 1997–98, promotion was not obtained.[2][18] They did, however, capture the Notts Senior Cup by beating Southwell City 1–0 at Meadow Lane.[46][e] Darren Davis and assistant Gary Haywood were appointed managers for 2002–03, presiding over a sixth-place finish.[18][47] Gedling was one of four non-League clubs served by former England international Chris Waddle during this season.[48]

Haywood led Gedling into 2003–04 without Davis, only to be replaced in the new year by player-managers Mark Clarke, Paul Jepson, and Craig Maddison.[49][50] Closing the season in fifth, the club enjoyed record runs in both national tournaments.[4][18] A fourth round tie in the FA Vase ended with a 3–2 defeat to Leighton Town, while Gedling bowed out 1–0 to Stalybridge Celtic in the third qualifying round of the FA Cup.[18] Additionally, in February, the club received a fee of £5,000 for forward Steve Scoffham, who joined Notts County of the Football League Second Division.[51]

During 2004–05, Gedling matched its previous FA Vase run before losing 3–0 to Tipton Town.[18] Tournaments hampered League form, however, and the club missed promotion by finishing in fifth.[2][18] The same tension frustrated Jimmy Albans and Graham Harrod as joint-managers for 2005–06; a 2–1 loss to Squires Gate at the same stage of the FA Vase accompanied a fourth-place finish, missing promotion by three points.[2][18] Albans and Harrod resigned at the end of the season over the club's failure to provide funds to recruit players.[52] Much of the team departed also.[2]

Gary Hayward and Andy Freeman led Gedling into 2006–07 before being dismissed on disciplinary grounds in December.[53][54] Player-manager James Jepson and assistant Devon White subsequently took charge.[54] The team recruited throughout the season, signing young prospects alongside former Football League midfielder Shaun Murray.[53][55] Suffering from injury, Jepson was replaced in February by his father, Paul, as Gedling closed in fourteenth.[18][56] Lee Wilson became manager for 2007–08, with Jimmy Albans returning as assistant.[4] Wilson and Albans oversaw a winning start to the campaign before leaving for Shepshed Dynamo in November,[2][57] a move which, joined by assistant Tony Cox, saw John Humphries return to management for the rest of the season.[58][59] Challenged by low attendances and a meagre transfer budget,[57][60] a "disastrous run in" saw Gedling finish in sixth.[2][18]

East Midlands Counties League, 2008–2011

Gedling was a founder member of the tenth-tier East Midlands Counties Football League (EMCFL) and its sole Premier Division, transferring to it for 2008–09.[18][61] Under the new management of Duncan Broad and Mark Allison, the club enjoyed a seven-match unbeaten run in the early part of the campaign before finishing in fourth.[2][18] In the August of 2009–10, chairman Roland Ash warned that Gedling could fold if not better supported by the community, citing low attendances exacerbated by the Great Recession and the pull of nearby professional clubs.[62] Broad and Allison stood down in January and were replaced by Mick Galloway,[63][64] who oversaw an upturn in results despite an eventual ninth-place finish after a three-point deduction by the League.[2][18] Included in these was a 2–1 victory over Dunkirk to lift the EMCFL League Cup, winning after extra time.[65]

Participation in the 2010–11 season was jeopardised in October when Gedling issued a statement "confirming that the Club has folded with immediate effect and will be withdrawing from the East Midlands Counties League and associated competitions".[3] Despite colleagues' attempts to persuade him otherwise, Ash decided to close Gedling for "personal reasons".[3] Four days later, a deal was announced which saw Ash relinquish his chairmanship to Tony Griffith, allowing the club to postpone resignation from the Nottinghamshire Football Association and fulfil its League and tournament fixtures until the end of the season.[66][67] Once again, three points were deducted by the EMCFL, and Gedling closed in eighteenth.[18] The club withdrew from the League in June and afterwards ceased to exist.[18][68] In January 2012, the Football Supporters' Federation listed Gedling among 13 English "clubs in crisis", with each threatened or collapsed by "insolvency events".[68]

Club identity

Gedling Town's previous club badge
The club badge used up to and including 2007–08

Gedling played in a home kit of yellow and blue. Between 2002–03 and 2009–10 at least,[47][63] this comprised a yellow and blue (once specified as navy blue) shirt, yellow and blue shorts (or all blue or navy blue), and yellow and blue socks (or all yellow or blue).[4][70] The team's away kit was all red between 2002–03 and 2004–05 at least,[39][47] after which it changed to red and white.[71] In 2007–08, it comprised a red and white shirt, red and white shorts, and red socks.[70] The home kit mirrored the colours of the badge, introduced after 2007–08, which depicted the club name, a football, and a representation of Gedling's nickname—"The Ferrymen".[3][4] This moniker derived from the location of the team's home ground, the Riverside Stadium, which was situated behind The Ferry Boat Inn pub.[39][61]

Prior to this rebranding, Gedling lacked a nickname altogether.[4] Gedling's previous badge, used from 1997 at least, was also yellow and blue and wrapped by the club name. However, it differed in depicting a football which contained a crest featuring three heraldic knots above a tree.[4][72] The club's principal local rivalry was with Arnold Town, exchanging players and competing with varying frequency in League and tournament fixtures.[28][73] It also shared ones with Arnold Rovers and Pelican in the Notts Amateur League,[74][75] Dunkirk and Sneinton in the CML,[31][76] and Radford in the EMCFL.[77]

From 1990 at least,[78] Gedling competed at the Riverside Stadium behind The Ferry Boat Inn pub in Stoke Bardolph.[61][f] Floodlights were installed by 1992–93 and accidental damage to these in 1997–98 left the ground in darkness during a match against Heanor Town.[81][82] Another issue occurred one year earlier when the team were stopped from playing at home to Thoresby Colliery Welfare because of a mud-churned goalmouth.[83] From 2002 onwards, amenities also included a clubhouse with a licensed bar serving hot and cold food and drink.[4][47] The stadium initially had a capacity of 2,000 with no seating but overhead cover for 500.[47] Some 500 seats were added ahead of 2005–06,[39][71] but these were stripped back to 200 with overhead cover in 2007–08.[84]

Gedling announced in July 2007 that it had received "an excellent report regarding our set-up" after visits by The Football Association and the BBC.[85] These facilities were used by Notts County for training purposes during its 2008–09 campaign.[86] In assessments made by local authorities after the club's collapse, the stadium comprised two pitches within 2.79 hectares of land.[87][88] In August 2012, the ground was taken over by Real United, a Nottingham-based football team aiming to keep young people away from drugs and gang culture.[89] Real United in-turn renamed it as the Inspire Stadium.[89]

Proposed Victoria Park development

By February 1995, the club, partnered with the Nottinghamshire Schools' Football Association and Gedling Borough Council, planned to build a new stadium near Victoria Park in Netherfield.[90] The intended site was formerly a marshalling yard owned by British Rail.[91] Initially estimated to cost up to £2.3 million,[90] the proposed complex was to include a bar, clubhouse (with three changing rooms and a clubroom), executive boxes, gym, indoor training equipment, kitchen, office, sports injury clinic, and store room.[92][93] A 100-seater terrace would have standing areas either side of it and overlook three floodlit pitches; one full-size, another for five-a-side, and the last made all-weather for alternative sports such as hockey.[90][92] Borough councillors approved plans for the stadium in October 1995 and applied for £290,000 from the National Lottery on the project's behalf.[93][94] However, the Lottery rejected the bid on the basis that it would duplicate other facilities in Nottingham.[94] The club's own bid for £225,000 was likewise unsuccessful.[95]

In response to these failures, the Borough Council scaled down its plans in January 1997. Now they would only include changing and social facilities, as well as three pitches.[94] Seating and covered standing room for spectators could be added later.[94] Councillors again approved the initiative in April after consultations with the Environment Agency, Highways Agency, Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, and Railtrack.[96] By then, the projected cost of the stadium was reduced to £600,000, with £190,000 promised by the Borough Council.[91] Efforts were also made by the concerned parties to attract the near-remaining £400,000 from the Sports Council.[91]

Around 200,000 recycled bricks were set aside for the stadium in February 1999, the same month that the Borough Council launched its second National Lottery bid, hoping to secure 35% of the overall funds.[97][98] The estimated cost had risen to £1 million by the time of a third application in June; meanwhile, the Borough Council earmarked a further £24,000 and planned another approach to the Sports Council for £556,600.[99] As late as March 2007, with the plans not realised, the club was attempting to re-establish its partnership with the Borough Council to again appeal to the Sports Council for assistance.[100] The project never materialised.[61]
