Following the demise of Nuneaton Borough FC at the end of 2023, supporters and former sponsors have come together and worked hard to create a new football club, Nuneaton Town FC, which is now a registered Community Interest Company (CIC).
โ€œThe club youโ€™ve supported all your life has withdrawn from the league and has no manager, no players and no ground. So, what do you do? Accept that itโ€™s the end of 130 years of the townโ€™s proud footballing heritage? No chance,โ€ said long-time Boro fan and one of the clubโ€™s new directors, Jim Evans.
โ€œAs fans all over the country have done in similar circumstances, you come together as a fan base, as a community, and you rebuild. This is the start of the journey. We want you to come along with us.โ€
Ahead of the new season, Nuneaton Town FC will be sharing updates so fans can get an insight into what is happening behind-the-scenes. Simply follow Nuneaton Borough Supportersโ€™ Co-Operative on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) or the just launched Nuneaton Town FC WhatsApp Channel, where news will be shared first.

Following an open meeting held by the Nuneaton Borough Supportersโ€™ Co-Operative back in January, around twenty Boro fans formed a Steering Group that has met weekly to create the new club and ensure everything is in place for the start of the 2024/25 season.
The Steering Group has agreed a Board of Directors: Ian Cook (chair), Derek Dunnachie, Stuart Elliott, Jim Evans and Mark Lacrouts, with Lee Hayward as the clubโ€™s treasurer and Richard Dean as secretary.
Cook and Elliott represent Nuneatonโ€™s football business community. Dunnachie is an independent representative. Evans and Lacrouts represent the Nuneaton Borough Supportersโ€™ Co-Operative and were appointed by the Co-Opโ€™s elected board. This structure ensures that fans are at the heart of decision making within the new club.
All have years of relevant experience, garnered from their professional lives and time spent on the Boro terraces, which will be put to good use running a football club with a sustainable ethos centred around the local community.
Chair Ian Cook says โ€œI feel honoured to have been asked to represent the club as a CIC director and chair. I will show huge passion and dedication to help drive our club back towards where we belong.โ€
Supportersโ€™ Co-Operative representative Mark Lacrouts says he โ€œis so proud and privileged to be selected as a director. I want to ensure that we have a well-managed and ambitious team that is sustainably financed that can stand on its own two feetโ€.

The FA has yet to determine which level Nuneaton Town FC will be playing at but the Steering Group has created financial models and plans for each of the potential leagues. The Steering Group has also started the process of recruiting a new manager and arranging pre-season friendlies, while the wider fan and club community has helped select a club badge and kit.
โ€œI am honoured to be working with a group of people who are so passionate in delivering what the fans want and deserve,โ€ says Steering Group member and now Director, Derek Dunnachie.
โ€œI would like to thank the Steering Group for all of their hard work to date,โ€ adds club director Stuart Elliott. โ€œWhat a great team you all are off the pitch after a turbulent time towards the end of the Boro.โ€

With Nuneaton Town FC moving into an operational phase, the Steering Group will continue its work through sub-groups focused on different aspects of running a football club.
One thing already decided is where the team will be playing โ€“ in the short term, at least. The club has an agreement with Bedworth United to use The Oval for upcoming seasons. All involved with Nuneaton Town FC are, however, determined to bring home games back to the town itself. As board member Stuart Elliott puts it, โ€œAs a long-time fan and sponsor, I am committed to seeing Nuneaton Town FC playing back in Nuneaton.โ€
