CLUB HISTORY BROUGHT RIGHT UP TO DATE:
The 2018 to 2024 Ebook is now available to download from the 'Eras' section of our website - www.fromtowntotown.org.uk
Our lead researcher, John Hobson, has been working around the clock to bring our comprehensive club history right up to date.
This period of the Club's history epitomises the highs and lows that the club has experienced over the last 135 years.
Overwhelming fan power sways the football authorities to allow the club to revert to it's much loved former name of Nuneaton Borough.
The club struggles on the pitch and then a global pandemic changes the world beyond recognition.
From flirting with relegation, to being a penalty kick away from promotion and then, the all too familiar tale of debts bringing about the tragic end of Nuneaton Borough FC.
After 135 years, is this THE END or just the beginning?
IS THE STORY TO CONTINUE?
The Nuneaton Borough Supporters Co-operative have rallied a dedicated group of Boro supporters to try and establish a new team in the town.
They have an open meeting on Wednesday 13th March at The Pavilion Club in Ansley Road (The Piv) starting at 7pm.
With the help and support of the local community can they succeed...........

Great work. I frequently refer to the 1970’s editions for a walk down memory lane.

You could certainly work out what you were doing on Saturdays and Mondays.

It is really a great effort for posterity and well done everyone. But,in my honest opinion,I reckon that full-time should be called on the past incarnations and let this new club have their time.
We were warned,but did it anyway.

Every iteration has had their time, and there is a connecting thread between the new club being created and the previous one.

Never ignore your history, it’s who you are. When BuryFC were thrown out of the EFL with debts of, allegedly, £12,000,000, I thought that’s it, it’s the end. From 1885 to now, it’s all over, 60 years of following the club, home and away, punching above our weight for most of that time, all for nothing.
Well it’s not, we formed a phoenix, we’re back at Gigg Lane, yes we are only in tier 5, but we are on a journey, visiting clubs we, in truth, never new existed, but being welcomed as we start a journey that may take us back to the EFL, but may not, and to be honest I don’t care.
We have our club back, and at my time of lifetime I’m unlikely to see us in the EFL anyway
We are now a fan owned community club with an artificial pitch to be installed in the summer and I’m loving our non league journey.
Get behind your new club, get the town behind it, and move forward, but never give up on who you were.
