Sandbach United Football Club is an English football club based in Sandbach, Cheshire. They play in the North West Counties League Division One South, at level 10 of the English football league system. The club is a FA Charter Standard Club affiliated to the Cheshire Football Association.[1]
The 2023–24 season saw the team have a relatively poor start in a very busy August and it was catch up all the way from that month onwards after Brocton set the early standard. It was to prove a task too far as Brocton were promoted as champions and Sandbach once again equalled their best ever finish with 3rd place for the second season running, but it was the play-offs again and a home tie in the semi final against a strong Abbey Hey side. It was not to be though as Abbey Hey put the tie to bed early with 3 goals in the first half leaving the Ramblers an impossible task. A bright start to the second half saw Sandbach miss an early opportunity to get back in the game and it was thanks to Harry Cain that Sandbach got a goal back making it an exciting finish but ultimately a 1–3 loss to the eventual play off winners.
