Not sure where the CODs are getting information about our ticket sales from as we cannot find out ourselves about them, probably more close season bullshit I’m guessing, who knows who cares what codheads think anyway.

If you go on their forum, they’ve got a thread on Us, Hull and Lincoln pinned at the top. Only one missing is Grimsby’s most popular team, Liverpool.

What’s the award and I presume you are referring to SM?

An award for the MP’s volunteers week.

£13,000 in one night is excellent, puts Unity Group and Positivity Dave in the shade.

The retainment announcement made it sound like he had signed an extension, so that is very poor communication from the club. After last season, I had worried that fans would get the jitters and the club needed good communication to keep up the good feeling. However, we have been met with the usual radio silence aalong with misleading information about players.

The club only seem happy with the fans to be part of the Positivity Dave happy clap; anything more is met with disinterest and questions met with disdain. It’s not good enough and this isn’t meant to slag off Positivity Dave. He has his place for people who like that, but we also need to know the club has a long term plan for improvement. We do want league football eventually. Leaving us to some smart videos with Iron Hour or Positivity Dave good vibes will only get you so far.

Don’t criticize PD, 64 will be straight onto you?

Mariners Trust is the biggest Supporter group over there, afaik.

Because we can’t ever come together we have Iron Trust, Unity Iron, Bru, Iron Hour and Voice of the Fans

Think the MT might have more say and power?

Not sure if the two traveller type caravans at the rear of the DRE are anything to do with them.
Little bird told me they’ve laser levels, and have discovered a 150mm slope. Not quite OSG, but interesting.
Sneaked a photo from the DRE eastern egress, but unsure how to post it?

Quick search they’re from Market Harborough and have done a few golf courses

Club Statement time.

Matlock Town Football Club can confirm that our owner, Mr Hilton, invested £20,000 into the ladies setup this season.

Late in 2025, we were notified that the Ladies First Team Manager had stepped down due to personal health issues. The Ladies section Treasurer also stepped down at the same time.

Following this, Mr Hilton informed the Development Squad that the club’s current infrastructure could not support the administrative requirements of running a Men’s First Team (our main revenue generator), alongside two ladies sides. As a result, the Development Squad would need to operate sustainably and independently for the 2026/27 season. The Ladies Development Squad Manager was notified of this in November 2025.

The club has provided ongoing financial and administrative support throughout the season, along with guidance to help the squad become fully self-sufficient. This has been successfully achieved, and the Development Squad will continue next season on a standalone basis.

After the First Team Manager’s departure, Mr Hilton appointed a new manager and continued to provide significant financial support to the Ladies First Team.

This included covering the costs of training venues, kits, balls, match pitches (due to our own pitch being unavailable for large parts of the season because of poor weather), all FA fees and fines, and even a coach for their FA Cup away trip.

Club staff, including the Club Secretary and an accounts assistant, also handled all administrative paperwork for the team.

Unfortunately, the Ladies First Team has been relegated to a lower level of the pyramid, where all clubs are self-funded, independently administered, and typically run by volunteers with funding from sponsors and player subscriptions.

After discussions with the current management team (who themselves receive expenses from the main club), they have confirmed they are unable to continue operating the side without the club’s ongoing financial and administrative support. While the option to continue on a fully sustainable, independent basis (as was the case prior to Mr Hilton’s investment) was offered, it has not proved viable.

We can also confirm that the club has not received a single penny in external funding, sponsorship, or grants for the ladies section.

We are deeply saddened by the false information being circulated on social media by one of our players’ mothers.

Matlock Town Football Club remains committed to the long-term development of all sections of the club and thanks everyone who has supported the ladies teams this season.
