Good Afternoon

I am the Chairman at Gainsborough Trinity FC and look forward to welcoming you on Saturday 3rd December .

I thought it might be worth mention a few facts regarding Gainsborough Trinity FC

Our Ground is the oldest single playing ground in the world having only ever playing Football here since 1873

When Newton Heath, changed to Manchester United FC in 1902 the first every game played was against Gainsborough at our ground which we still occupy today.

We will not be segregating the game as we appreciate like us you are Football Fans first, although we will have a separate turnstyle open for Away fans which we encourage you to use to aid with congestion.

Richard Kane

In view of the stated segregation has anybody raised the question of seating?

A number of our fans prefer to sit to watch the game and in some cases are unable to stand.

Thanks

Jane

The two sides first met in the FA Cup Second Qualifying Round in September 2010 at Gigg Lane, when Glynn Hurst scored twice in a 2-1 win against the Conference North side watched by 1037.
Gainsborough were members of Football League Division Two between 1896 and 1912. They were founder members of Conference North in 2004. In 2011-12 Trinity lost the Conference North play-off Final 0-1 at home to Nuneaton Town.
Gainsborough escaped relegation on the final day of 2016-17 despite losing 1-5 in Moston thanks to AFC Fylde beating Worcester City 4-2.
The Holy Blues are one of 5 clubs who have not drawn at home in the League this season, the others being Salford City, Blyth Spartans, Tamworth and FCUM.
FCUM have now come back from 0-2 8 times to win. They have never lost from being 2-0 up.
