The Future

The summer break prior to Season 2007/08 was make or break for many involved in Pot Black Football Club. Results had been disappointing on the field, attitudes and commitment to the cause had been at an all time low, leaving Manager Danny McKinley now in his sixth year in charge deflated, and questioning his drive to continue.

Several players had finished due to family or work commitments, Captain Kev Sherwood and Club Secratary Rob Sterry's serious Knee Injuries looked Terminal and with no new players arriving, the club looked as if the end was near.

Although like all football clubs the mark of greatness is not winning all your games it is bouncing back from defeat, and by jove we've done it!

A late influx of no less than five new players have re-kindled the belief and passion, of the flegling side of '99, who's remenence is small but still present in the form of Danny McKinley and stalwart Ross Jones.

With an up turn on the pitch matching the lift in things off the pitch, the clubs future certainly looks brighter.....
