Many Congratulations to Billingham Town Reserves who tonight won the NRFL Challenge Cup. A well played game and fully deserved win. Well Done lads!

Billingham Town — “Rollercoaster Blues” Town’s season was pure rhythm: short winning bursts followed by sharp declines. They produced several three‑game runs that teased progress, yet each was undone by a cluster of losses. Their mid‑season form was competitive, but when the goals dried up inconsistency ruled. Capable of beating anyone, but never twice in a row for long but still an improvement on the previous campaign. FACT: Scored AND conceded 70 goals - the only zero goal difference in NL2. @BillinghamTown

Billingham Town FC are now inviting applications for the role of First Team Manager. Applications should be submitted to kclose@billinghamtownfc.net by Thursday 1st May #UTT

Yesterday was a good day for the club. The result on the pitch wasn’t what we wanted but sometimes that’s just football. However, we showed what an amazing bank of volunteers we have. Everyone pulled together and the day went off without a hitch. Minimal queues, happy to help attitude. The ground hoppers enjoyed themselves and left for Crook Town with genuine gratitude for the efforts of all of the staff. So Kev and the board would like to put on record our thanks to an amazing group of people without whom that day wouldn’t have gone as smoothly. You know who you all are, we know the work you do is invaluable and we appreciate every bit of effort. Thank you all.

Esteemed sportswriter @danielstorey85 says "it's my belief that the English football pyramid is this country’s greatest cultural asset" Dunno if I agree but I sure thought of it when 2 tifos appeared before a 11am tenth tier derby of @BillinghamTown Vs @Synthonia attendance ~550

12 Matches, 5 Days: Northern League Easter Ground Hop Northern League fans are in for a football feast next week, from Thursday evening to Easter Monday’s final whistle, the schedule offers over 1,000 minutes of football, showcasing the very best of the Northern League.

ℹ️//TODAY//FIXTURE//NL2 @AlnwickTownAFC v @BillinghamTown Comp: Northern League Division Two Venue: St James Park, NE66 1BG Kick Off: 3pm 📈CURRENT FORM// Alnwick Town 8th | LLDWWW - Two wins in a week for ‘Wick. They followed last Saturday’s 1-0 win away at Newcastle University with a 2-1 home victory over Prudhoe YC Seniors in midweek. An own goal gave them the points a week ago with first half goals from Lewis Fairburn & Michael Laws enough for the midweek points. At home they have won 8/19 league games, with seven draws and five defeats completing their NL2 record to date at St James Park. Won 4-1 in October’s reverse fixture. Jamie Clark & Richard Hoggins both with braces. Billingham Town 11th | WLDLWD - Last Saturday saw them record first win in four with a 4-0 away win at Boldon - on the back of an 8th league clean sheet of the campaign. They followed that with a midweek exit in the Ernest Armstrong Cup in midweek. It ended 0-0 after 90 minutes although John Stephenson was sent off late on in the tie. They lost 4-3 on penalties. They have won 6/17 league games played on their travels, with three draws and 8 losses rounding out their NL2 away record to date. Lost 4-1 in October’s reverse fixture. Kieran Stares scored a consolation goal before Charlie Watt was sent off two minutes from time. ⏪LAST TIME// Alnwick claimed a 3-1 win in the corresponding NL2 fixture last season at St James Park. Jamie Clark gave the hosts a 6th minute lead which they held until the break. A minute after the restart Usman Ogiden doubled ‘Wicks' advantage. Kieran Stares swept home a 62nd minute penalty to raise the visitors hopes of a comeback but Clark’s second of the afternoon eight minutes from time squashed those hopes, 3-1. 🔮OUR PREDICTION// Alnwick’s recent surge, with three straight wins and growing confidence at St James Park, puts them in a strong position here. Billingham Town’s big win at Boldon shows they still carry threat, but their inconsistency on the road and the midweek cup setback leave questions. The reverse fixture was one‑sided, and Alnwick’s home record - built on resilience and steady scoring - suggests they can repeat the outcome. All that said… ‘Wick 1–1 Billy Town.
