Baguley Athletic FC |
|
With the team now in Division 3, Stewart wanted to establish a
team that could help with another assault on the championship.
He looked at higher league teams and set about persuading some
big name players to join Baguley Athletic. Rico To and Daniel
Holdsworth were signed from Baguley Juniors to form a dynamic
midfield partnership with Story, Wallis and Osebi Abedeki. Also
from Baguley Juniors came Jake Ashcroft, whose consistent
performances at right back saw him play in all their league and
cup games and also clinch Managers' Player and Players' Player
of the year in his first season. Thomas Holmes was brought in to
complete the defense at left back. He was signed from local
rivals Lisbon St. Anthonys' after the club collapsed. Stewart
had been after Holmes for two years since playing Lisbon in his
first friendly in charge.
With the new players bringing a different class of football and
a more professional attitude, Baguley Athletic went on to clinch
their second title in two years, after a tense last day,
defeating High Lane Juniors 1 - 0 to lift the Division 3 trophy
ahead of them. |

History |
|
|
Established in 2000 as Woodhouse Park United by then chairman
Andrew Cloake. The club consisted of just one junior team and
played in the Stockport Metropolitan Junior Football League. It
wasn't until 2003 that Woodhouse Park United established a new
team, with the addition of an Under 13's squad (later Baguley
Athletic).
Woodhouse Park United Under 13s first season went from bad to
worse, as they finished the league in last place,
disqualification from both local cups and the sacking of the
manager Mike Davies |

With limited funding available Baguley Athletic were forced to
fold for the following two seasons. Many of the players and fans
believed that they could have clinched the Division 2 trophy had
they entered, as the Stockport metro JFL had disbanded into just
two leagues, leaving most of Athletics' previous opponents in
Division 2.
In June 2008, an unsuccessful attempt to reform the team failed
after gaining no support from local businesses for funding. |

In April 2004, Paul Stewart was appointed as the new manager of
the now depleted Under 14s squad. Stewart strengthened the squad
in his first 2 months in charge. His most influential signing
was that of Matthew Davenport from Baguley Juniors ( a team
three divisions higher ). Long serving players Martyn Story,
Chris Wallis and Reece White were used to build the team around,
and with Scott McGahey was placed between the posts. These
players would go on to win a number of individual awards over
the next 4 years.
With the team lingering in 4th place in the league,
and after a disappointing cup exit the squad was re-enforced
during the December break. |
