Onwards and Upwards

11 pm EB of an old OS map

Lee Gregory's solitary goal today earned FC Halifax promotion from the Blue Square Bet North with a narrow play-off final victory over Brackley Town.

FC Halifax Town were formed five years ago when Halifax Town AFC, then of the Conference National, were liquidated.

Their third promotion in four years completes a stunning rise for the club.

Onwards and Upwards - It's good to see things on the up.

I'll be walking past the Shay on the way to the office in approximately 9 hours from now.
