Just out of interest, who else on here supports a non-league football club? I support Runcorn Linnets FC who currently play in the North West Counties League Division Two. We are a fans run club who formed last summer after we became fed up with what was happening to our beloved Runcorn FC. At the moment we play our "home" games at Wincham Park, home to Witton Albion FC, but are doing all we can to get a ground back in Runcorn in the next few years.
For anyone who is interested, please feel free to visit www.runcornlinnetsfc.co.uk.
So, does anyone else follow non-league football, and if so, who do you support?

| There's a few FC Utd fans on here.
Good to see your lot doing well in the league. Any chance of you beating Winsford to the title?

| I 'support' Hyde United. The mighty Tigers. They were something like 23rd in Nov and the last time I looked at the league, they were third. They're in great form.
I used to watch them a few years ago but I have only been to two games in 4 years - appalling.

| Hey Leyther Matt, keep up the good work with the website! Ive never actually seen Runcorn play RMI but have been to your ground when Saints played the Centurians.
Mr Mystery, as for beating Winsford to the title...we would love to! I don't think it will happen though. We play them at their place on Easter Monday so should be a cracker, cant wait.

Yes you're doing well at the moment in Conf North (those were the days! lol). I've been to Ewen Fields a few times, always a good day out.

| I'm from Runcorn and used to support our team. I went the odd game under FC Halton but won't touch the 'linnets' with a barge pole. They are not Runcorn!!
Runcorn FC RIP. Such a shame, used to love going canal street. I remember a few cracking cup games that went into ET. Good times.

Currently sixth in the Conference North after getting promoted last season but if we get 3 points from our game in hand (against Worksop I think) that'll put us 3rd.

The incentive for derbies against Leeds next year should invigorate the side in the run-in.

Yes I also used to love going to Canal Street. I carried on going when we were at Widnes but last season when we were at Prescot I only went a handfull of games because it was just too depressing to see what state our club was in. This season I've only missed a few games at the beginning but I'm enjoying it again which is what counts. As well as keeping out hard-core support we've also gained a few new faces and some old supporters who havnt been since the Canal Street days.
I can fully understand your view Fresh Prince, but if you ever feel like coming along one day you will be more than welcome

What sort of crowds are you getting nowadays? Would've thought Witton would be a bit out of the way considering the distance from Runcorn to Northwich, but hopefully you'll end up a little closer to home soon enough. Cracking bar at Witton though it must be said, we played there against Northwich in the Conference in the 2004/05 season when their new ground was still being built.

| Our average attendance this season is 208 which is the highest in the division. We run a Travel Club to home games to enable fans to get to Wincham Park from various pick-up points in Runcorn and sometimes Widnes (depending on the demand!) The Travel Club also provide a service to all away games which means that we actually take a healthy crowd to away grounds (something we havnt done in years!)
You're right about the bar as well, the whole ground is a nice little set up and we are very gratefull to Witton for allowing us to use their facilities for this season and next. Fingers crossed for a ground in Runcorn soon though

Currently top of the Ryman League Division 1 South on Goal Difference, but with 2 games in hand. Only got promoted to the division last season by winning the Kent League.
Still playing away from Maidstone (have been since 198icon_cool.gif at the moment Sittingbourne being the place, but work has finally begun on a new ground in the town.

Cheers mate What news is there on a ground in runcorn being built? Can Mond or Gen Chems not add stand around their ground for the linnets to play there? Would certainly increase attendance if they moved back home.

The club were in talks with the owners of Pavillions about leasing a ground there but negotiations stopped, so at the moment other avenues are being explored. Things do look more positive about a move back to Runcorn than they ever have done, so heres hoping!
