MIDLAND LEAGUE PREMIER DIV'N/b]
[b]SATURDAY 25th JANUARY 2025 3.00pm KICK OFF
STONE OLD ALLEYNIANS v NORTHWICH VICTORIA
Tuesday sees Vics' first away League match when they travel the relatively short distance to visit Stone Old Alleynians.
Stone Old Alleynians FC was founded in 1962 by Dave Bonnet, a teacher at, and a former pupil of Alleyns Grammar School in Stone. The Club started in division 4 of the Stafford Amateur League, gaining promotion to division 3 in their second season. The following season saw them promoted again, and further promotion followed as they finished Champions of Division 2. The 1970/71 season saw the Club win the top League for the first time, to be followed by winning it again a further 3 times. The 2019/20 season saw the Club make their debut in the FA Cup and in 2021 they were promoted to the Premier Division of The Midland League based on their results in the abandoned 2019/20 and 20/21 seasons.
They currently lie in 7th position , but 8 points off the play off positions having played 3 games more as well. This is an improvement on last season when they finished 15th . They started the season well but are currently on a bad run of just 1 win in the last 8 matches so Vics will be looking to continue their improving performances and come away with the 3 points as the new look squad continue to gel.
Your support is massively important as we go through the season and we hope to see you down at Stone.
Stone OA have moved this season and currently play at the home of Newcastle Town FC
