@LongridgeCC @Joshmullin97 @zac_christie111 Well done chaps. 👏 Out of interest who has the highest 1st team average since you started putting these stats together?

4️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ 🆙 Before the 1st XI head in to today’s game against Chorley, a huge congratulations are in order for @Joshmullin97 & @zac_christie111 as they both passed 4,000 competitive 1st XI runs (excl t20) at the back end of May 👏🏼 Double up boys!

Every credit to the manager, now clearly homeless - rumour has it he sold his house to pay the 🚂 wages to ensure survival #choochoo

Won’t know what’s hit him when he opens the door to @LDPlatt94 box room #raiseitup 🏏

Chipping 2 - 2 eagley Chipping scored a last gasp equaliser and took the game on pens to go through to the semi final Despite some very questionable decisions from the away linesman who seemed to be intent on doing anything he could to prevent chipping scoring a late equaliser

A round up of yesterdays local sport: Southport & ainsdale res v ribchester rovers A home walkover as Matt Dolby was unable to raise a team, echoing the horror show he was part of under baitson at AFC Longridge earlier this year. We wish rib all the best in Turning it around

A big happy 50th birthday to another legendary Longridge Sunday league manager @frankfuntime74 Funtime as he’s known to most got the team playing some of the best football in years in the early 2000s as he collected players from nightclubs all over Lancashire on Sunday mornings

@Prestonpete1 Of bed? Did this Twitter account make players abuse referees so games were called off after 20 mins? Is it twitters responsibility to get 11 lads to turn up on a Saturday? We Look forward to your answers, Many thanks AFC twitter team. #raiseitup

@Prestonpete1 Please explain the following: Did this Twitter account put the blocked drains into Mardale? Did this Twitter account prevent lads from paying fines? Did this Twitter account replace experienced good players that showed up most weeks with lads that couldn’t be arsed getting out..

*Breaking News* This evening AFC have announced they have folded as a club. The ability to attract the right Calibre of players, squad unrest and an appalling disciplinary record have all contributed to the clubs current situation Please find the official club statement below:

We also wish former manager and player @kennytrickytree a very happy birthday Kenyon and Jameson were tactically unriveled and had great man management skills putting together the best Longridge Sunday team of the 2000’s attracting some of the best players in the local area 🥳🎁

We would like to wish a big happy 60th birthday to our manager @battyno8 🥳 Although he hasn’t had much to celebrate on the pitch in the last couple of decades we’re sure his best friend @jakecraven14 will be celebrating hard with him this evening #raiseitup

*Breaking News* We would like to inform supporters that were due to travel tomorrow morning that the game has now been postponed We are still awaiting comment from the manager to clarify the situation with the club now seemingly in complete disarray #raiseitup

With more court hearings than Peter sutcliffe in recent times AFC will be glad to focus on football for a change this weekend. They travel to Moor Park to face fellow strugglers Lonsdale in what can only be described as a relegation 6 pointer Odds 1. 1/3 X. 1/4 2. 11/1 #respect

@LongridgeAfc @battyno8 @dwilks10 The poor guy had just walked out of the hearing FFS and you're naming him where thousands of people can see. I don't usually comment but you overstepped the mark there. And it's not a matter of being easily offended!!

Unfortunately due to a sense of humour malfunction to multiple members in the village who seem to take offence in everything the last update has been removed. Unfortunately that’s the society we live in these days Rest assured we will continue to deliver the latest AFC content..

@battyno8 @Lorrain67588853 @dwilks10 Your miles off. Some people have no sense of humour anymore and are offended by everything that’s the problem with todays society.

@Lorrain67588853 @LongridgeAfc @dwilks10 it can only be you ! Have some respect for the work, time and desire people have with this club ! Show up Sunday this is no joke anymore. You take my job if you can do better ! Sick to death of the shit !

Happy new year from everyone at AFC It’s a sombre message as 2023 will go down as the worst and most embarrassing year in the history of this great club Lets hope the club avoids extinction in 2024 and the dinosaurs 🦕 in charge somehow sort it out #thingscanonlygetbetter
