@flynn_choco @sykesj1973 Strong top 4 finish next season for Golcar. Best side I’ve seen back end of season

Best coach/manager at step 5 by a country mile. Average age of the squad with me in it at 22. Playing football the right way. I wonder what @sykesj1973 thinks of the squad since Xmas. The best squad golcar has EVER had. 😂

𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐇𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒 💯 Subject to making an appearance this Saturday, Sam Awty will have made the ‘100 Club’. Let’s hope that it’s a great occasion for our forward who has been with us since the moment we started this NCEL journey. Fun fact, Awty actually scored our first NCEL goal back in July 2022 in a 5-0 win against Ollerton Town. ⚽️

@Horbury_TownFC I’ll bring a couple

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝟏𝟖𝟒𝟏 The 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋 for supporters to join the squad with an evening at The Brewers 1841 on Wednesday 17th December. Get in the Christmas spirit with a few pizzas and beers, with the ultimate teamed football quiz and the draw for the Christmas raffle on the night. The more we get, the less the cost is.. currently looking at £10 pp. If any supporter is interested, then please get in touch by 𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠. ❤️

@Horbury_TownFC Where are highlights these days chaps?

𝐃𝐮𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐆𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐥 🤝🏽 With the use of technology and the VEO, the equaliser on Saturday will now be credited to Abdou Bojang. The definition of impact, scoring off the bench in successive games. Deserves a start tonight? ❤️

@Horbury_TownFC Absolute torture.

FT. YOUUUUUU REDS. 😍

@Horbury_TownFC Demon finisher, great lad, never moaned, someone will Get a great player here

𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐃𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 ☹️ The club can confirm the departure of striker Jack Leach as he looks in search of regular game time. Leach appeared 42 times last season, netting 10 times, with his superb header away at Harrogate Railway arguably his best. Leaving the club as a champion as well. The club would like to place on record a huge thanks for his contribution in a Horbury shirt and will be keeping an eagle eye on his progress. The gaffa spoke following the news earlier: “Leachy has been a great asset to have at the club, having him a part of both the senior and u23s squad, captaining the latter. I fully appreciate and understand his reasons for looking elsewhere for regular football, something we cannot guarantee here - that goes for every player we have. Hopefully this isn’t the last we see him in a Horbury shirt. A hugely talented player who just needs to hit the ground running at this stage playing every game and doing what he does best”. Leach had the following words also: “The decision to leave the club was not an easy one but I think for me the right one. I feel at this moment in time, I need to go elsewhere and get back to playing regular football week in, week out. I want to say a massive thank you to everyone at the club - the lads, the management, the volunteers and the fans for making my time at Horbury as enjoyable as it has been and for the opportunity I’ve been given. I cannot speak about this club highly enough and I’m sure will see big success in the future. I leave the club with a league title and wouldn’t have wanted it with any other group”. ❤️

@_SouthLeedsFC Brilliant lad

✍🏻✍🏻 Welcome the next man joining South Leeds for the new season, Eoin Schofield. Eoin joins us having recently left Horbury Town after spending many years there and is looking to get stuck in and cement himself at South Leeds. Eoin has been putting the work in during Pre Season and brings some real versatility to the squad, we look forward to seeing him in his new colours! 🔰

@Horbury_TownFC Excellent signing he really impressed me at Shelley last year

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐚𝐬 ‘𝐀𝐫𝐢 Returning to the Horbury after a year away is Arista Llewellyn, who is no stranger to the club. Arista spent last season at Shelley, being a regular in their NCEL squad and gaining valuable experience before rejoining the club for a second bite at the cherry. Both manager and player had the following words: 𝐃𝐁 “I’m really pleased to get Arista back at the club after gaining experience at step 6 level, something he definitely deserved and will come back to Horbury as a much more rounded player. Even when he was at the club two seasons ago, he was a part of the squad but for his personal development, he found regular game time and now returns hungry to be a part of the successes. I believe he’ll be a great player for years to come and don’t even have to question the fit within the squad. It’s an exciting time for both player and club and I look forward to seeing him develop further”. 𝐀𝐋 “It feels great to return to a club where I spent many years, starting as a junior where I had many happy memories. The decision was an easy one, especially having known a fair few of the group from my previous time here. On a personal note, I definitely needed last season. To gain experience at this level and build up a run of games which I feel I did, it can only benefit me and stand me in good stead this season back in the Horbury colours. I’ve been working very hard since finding out about having the opportunity to come back here and have put my full focus into doing so. My goals are simple, I want to push myself to be a regular starter and help contribute to the team in any way I can”. Arista will wear the Horbury colours again for the first time on 5th July as we entertain Beverley Town to kickstart the pre season campaign.

@Horbury_TownFC Brilliant Paul All the best

𝐔𝟐𝟑𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 ✍️ On the eve of pre-season, the club are delighted that Paul Howard has taken on the responsibility of the U23s side for the upcoming season. Having being involved with our 18s and being a major part in the successes of our junior sections as chairman, it seems the perfect fit for the club. With great knowledge of the 17s and 18s already who are ready to take the step up the 23s, Paul will work closely with manager Darren Barnes to create the perfect pathway to the senior team, which saw close to double figures of last years squad make the bench at least and be impactful for the champions outfit. This season, the youngsters will be heavily involved in pre season with the seniors, getting a taste of a higher standard of football, which can only be a positive impact to their development. If any players are interested in becoming a part of the 23s next season, then please contact Paul - 07876 680811

@_eoin1999 @Horbury_TownFC @BarnesyDaz A credit to all decent folks and players good luck mate

@Horbury_TownFC Always says hello, a lovely family too. Someone will get a great player there

𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭, 𝐄𝐨𝐢𝐧 🍀 The club would like to put on record our thanks to Eoin Schofield who after nine years at the club in numerous spells, has moved onto pastures new. “Eoin, alongside Gibril and Luke, are our three longest standing members of the club, having seen us go through the trials and tribulations of the West Yorkshire League for a number of years. You’ll struggle to find a better bloke than Eoin and that can be said for his family as well, who have been supporters of the club, week in week out. They will be extremely missed and thank them massively for the years of support for the club. Understandably, Eoin is looking for more game time, something which I cannot agree at this stage and completely understand his reasonings for wanting to move on. Despite a tough year on the pitch for him with not so many minutes, his commitment and effort off the pitch never dipped and continuously put in the hard yards to give himself every opportunity of getting game time. I hope it was all worth it. The league title you won isn’t something that can be taken away from you. To all the Schofields - please don’t be strangers. There is always a place for you at the club and hopefully we see you at further games”. We wish you all the best in the future and will be keeping an eye on your progress.

@Horbury_TownFC No sign of mellowing happy birthday boss

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 Hopefully this means no voice notes today and some family time.. Happy birthday to the guy who leaves no stone unturned to keep this football club ticking along 24/7. Have a great day gaffa.

@parksteelsfc Brilliant Jack well done lad

Our Fans Player of the Year is Jack Tinker! One of our longest serving players, Tinker is a fan favourite whose hard work is beloved by our supporters.

Last night we had our First Team's Awards evening at @moor_club! It was a brilliant night for those there, but who went home with some awards?

@JackTinker4 @parksteelsfc @BradfieldBrew It’s on Jack! Complete the job pal

𝘽𝙍𝘼𝘿𝙁𝙄𝙀𝙇𝘿 𝘽𝙍𝙀𝙒𝙀𝙍𝙔 𝙈𝘼𝙉 𝙊𝙁 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙈𝘼𝙏𝘾𝙃 It could have been anyone today, but Elliot Owen has been given the @BradfieldBrew Man of the Match!

@markwright1967 @NostellMWFC Fair play nostell

From being a day away from withdrawing from the league, having no squad, no budget & a club with very little prospect of competing, we finish with a sense of optimism & purpose for 25-26. The foundations are now there to progress. Top people throughout @NostellMWFC ⚫🟡

@JackTinker4 @Horbury_TownFC @WombwellTownFC One more pal. You sneaking playoffs?

𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗪𝗢. All the best on Saturday @WombwellTownFC ❤️

@Mr_Leech Massive congrats on a great career don’t forget your influence on young players Anthony. A true gentlemen thank you

Also to my number 1 fan - my dad - who’s only ever missed a handful of games over the last 30+ years. His help & advice before, during & after games has been invaluable & is something I will never,forget! The hard work continues, but this time it’s from the sidelines! Let’s go!

A few weeks ago I made the tough decision to retire from playing football after 21 seasons in non league! Iv officially hung up my boots after a brilliant opportunity to step into the dugout and begin the next chapter of my football journey! #coaching #nonleague #thenextstep

@Horbury_TownFC A massive loss and really feel for Gib. You know what to do now lads

𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗘𝗗𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬, 𝗚𝗜𝗕 | ❤️ As most of you will be aware by now, yesterday’s victory against Yorkshire Amateur has been dampened by the results that Gibril Bojang has unfortunately had a break to his Fib, with a three month minimum recovery. Fingers crossed for the prolonged period being as positive as possible, with surgery also a possible option too. It goes without saying that everyone involved within the club, fans included, wish Gibril a speedy recovery and we cannot wait to see you back in a Horbury shirt next season. Discussions are being made by the club on a fundraising event for Gib and further details will be provided in due course. Added motivation now for the dream outcome for the club. ❤️

@Horbury_TownFC @NonLeagueHQ1 Lads many congratulations it’s a tough tough league and to achieve it 3 in a row is unbelievable. Just keep pushing. You never know

𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗬𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗦 𝗦𝗘𝗖𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 🤝 83 points, equalling last seasons total and guaranteeing at least a shot in the playoffs. @NonLeagueHQ1 Some club, some team. ❤️

@Horbury_TownFC Take it lads. Twists and turns to come

FT | ⌚️ Rode the luck in the second half on a couple of occasions but it’s another point on the board. On to Tuesday.
