Hi guys! Just an introduction, I'm fairly new here and have never attempted this before so sorry if it fails.
A little bit about the club:
Stockport County FC were formed in 1883 as Heaton Norris Rovers by members of the Wycliffe Congregational Church, and played their first recorded game in October the next year. The club adopted 'The Hatters' as their nickname,owing to Stockport's history as the centre of the Victorian hat-making industry, a nickname that is shared with Luton Town.

They play in blue and white stripes at the Edgeley Park Stadium with a 10,900 capacity crowd that is regularly packed with very vocal home supporters. Despite being only 15 minutes drive from Old Trafford and 18 from the Etihad Stockport have a large amount of local supporters who come no matter what to support their beloved Stockport.
Animo et Fide is the club motto, recently incorporated into their badge in 2010 - it roughly translates to "With Courage and Faith".

Our story begins with myself, James Murphy, a semi-professional footballer who retired about 6 years ago with his National B Coaching License in hand, most definitely a suit and boot guy with his brain involved in tactics and youth development, far from the technical coaching areas - might've made a better player if I had more nouse in that respect!!!

We find ourselves placed ready and raring to go on the 8th July 2014.
Is promotion on the horizon?
