" Theres only one Nigel Short" appeared on the Scoreboard at the recent Sheffield Wednesday v Burnley game.And here at the Swallows we all agree(some would say just as well,only joking!).Without going in to too much detail Nigel has just undergone major surgery and has a lengthy bout of on going treatment ahead.For those of you who dont know Nige played a massive role in securing our sponsor and making this website possible and almost idiot proof for the likes of me (as well as sharing a Stella or two).More importantly he's a great friend!.We would all like to give Nige,Gina and Dan(and families) our support.Our thoughts are with you Nige.

Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to everyone involved with the club.

I would like to thank you all for your continued support and wish you and your families the very best for 2008.I would particularly like to thank the Players both u13s and u9s who have been absolutely fantastic we should be immensely proud of their efforts and achievements to date,Well done!

Warmest Regards Mark.

Congratulations to Tony Marsh on passing the Refs course with flying colours(not Red or Yellow i hope!).In an exclusive interview with Swallows on line Chairman Mark Kiddy said "This is another step in the right direction with regards to getting more people within the club qualified in different areas,this can only benefit the Swallows long term.Well done to Tony and Cherish the moment you deserve it!"
