A history lesson for you all, just to give some variation to the usual match reports. Back in 1997 I helped start the first girls team in Denton, my daughter Natasha (the girl with the coach's arm around her in the middle), was my first signing. The Team was called Denton Eagles.

The coach Stacey Copeland went on to play at a high level, including England U21's, and just recently, has made her 3rd come back to Denton, playing the remainer of the season with the ladies. The guy in the purple shirt (he never was a fashion guru),is Billy Johnston, who together with his son Mike (two to the right of Billy in a white shirt), today help run the very successful ladies team at Denton Town. Many of the girls in the picture continued to play football up until very recently, and Vicky (GK above and son of Billy/brother of Mike), still plays for us, celebrating her 21st birthday this weekend. In them days, we regularly got thrashed 15, 20 and even 26-0, but we persevered.

In 2000 we moved onto Denton Villa, who were firmly established as a Football and Netball club, but only had a trial girls team, who we played before completing the switch. The picture is Denton Villa 13's A who I helped run with Ron Halsall (pictured), whom some of you might remember from a couple of seasons back. On the right were our rivals (LOL Mike), Denton Villa 13's B. Derby day was great has we used to wind the two teams up, and it created an electic atmosphere. Best memory for me was when my daughter (GK left pic), scored directly from her own area, and the team went wild. I used to get match reports in the advertiser in them days as well, but just don't have the time now - cue parent with time on their hands to get it going again.

Notice anybody in this picture taken at United's traning ground Dec 2001? Well, the 14's should. On the far right hand side is Tim who had only just joined us, and just in front, our little mascot, Ruby. Aw, cute or what?On the left hand side is Lee Halsall, son of Ron who I mentioned earlier. Tim, now of course runs the 14's with Alan Brewer, who between them make a fabulous coaching team.
