Ramsbottom United held their end of season Presentation Night in the adjacent Cricket Club last Friday (28th) and were joined for the first time by members of the Junior Section Under 21s.

Ramsbottom United wish to issue the following statement with regards to the points deduction enforced upon them last week.

Ramsbottom United manager Mark Fell continues to tweak his squad, and has brought in two more signings.

Ramsbottom United manager Mark Fell has strengthened his backroom team by bringing in former Burnley, Preston, Rochdale and Wigan striker Graham Lancashire.  The 44 year old who recently had a full time role in the Burnley Academy, will become assistant manager from the start of the 2017/18 season but will have an involvement in the Rams final three games of the season.

Ramsbottom United are delighted to announce the return of true goalscoring legend.

Blackburn Rovers loanee Josh Askew was voted Ramsbottom United's "Player of the Month" for December by the club's supporters.

Following the 2-0 loss at home to Trafford, manager Mark Fell spoke to the RUFC website about the recent run of form, the controversy during the game and his thoughts for the remaining matches of the season.  And striker Lee Gaskell speaks about his return to the club after 18 months away.

The Ramsbottom United Player of the Month award for January 2017, as voted for by the club's supporters, went to goalkeeper Martin Fearon.

What a difference three days makes.  On Saturday a 1-1 draw away was received with a roar of positive approval.  Last night the same result, albeit against a team lower in the league and down to ten men for the last 50 minutes or so, drew only grunts of frustration, anger and disbelief from the travelling fans who again were out in support in good numbers.  Mark Fell and his players need to be asking themselves some searching questions as to what went wrong in a game which the Rams had in firm control but which in the end was only going to have one winner - and that was not the visitors.
