After a 22 year association with Bramham Football Club I have decided with much regret that I cannot continue playing at the club.
I have my reasons for my exit the main one being my idea of football and the powers that be greatly differ.
The lack of respect being the other.
Those people who have stuck the boot in on the touchline and on the pitch today and over the last two seasons shame on you.
I have dragged my family all over the country to play for this club, a club that I have loved all my life.
I have been the most loyal servant this club has ever seen in all its history ignoring calls from much more illustrious leagues and divisions to play for this club.
I am sure the club will be a stronger force with somebody else captaining.

Farewell I wish the majority of the team all the luck in the world.
I am pretty confident this wont get published so I will just have to find another medium to get my announcement across.
A dissappointing end to my footballing career.

Well done today boys if we play like that all season we can go all the way.
I would like to reiterate Smittys comments about the pitch and all the work the three Bramham Legends have done. Lets not think they do it for themselves boys what do they get out of it compared to us?
Its is Deighton on Tuesday night and nothing but 100% will do,they will rightly want to avenge last years double that we did over them.
Lets keep the momentum going lads and take this good start further.
See ya Tuesday, and Rich let some more air out of them Balls heh heh

Another season is upon lads,and I just wanted to point out a few things that we as players need to start doing this season if we are to take that next step up and push for honours this season.Richard,Mick & Lenny have put in a massive amount of work behind the scenes this close season to get the changing rooms sorted,and got the pitch looking the best it has since I have been at bramham.So I think it is only fair that we as the players start to re-pay these stalwarts for their hard work & committment by getting Bramham to the top,where the facilities & committment of these Committee members belong.This though can only be done by all the players showing more committment not only on the pitch but just around the club itself.The club has arranged a night out for us in septmember,for 1st team & 2nd team players for what could be a club bonding night,yet we seem to be lacking in people committing to this.The clubs has said that we will train,during the winter months so that we can keep a good level of fitness up and get a good team morale going,but this can only be done if people are committed and turn up,its in our own best interests lads if we want to win things this season.
What Im trying to get at lads is,these 3 people have/are putting alot of work in behind the scenes on a matchday & leading up to a match,so lets all just pull together and help each other out,because they only want what we all want and that is for the club to be successful,but we have all got to pull together!!

Any news on the race meeting at Doncaster next Friday? Is it still on? Hasn't been much information about it...Cheers Tosh

Absolutely over the moon after Saturdays victory boys.
Extremely proud to be part of what was a very well deserved victory.
Lets go out in style on Saturday and forget past results,Saturday is a one off which we have a great chance of winning.
I think the whole league wants us to do this and i know we are more than capable.
Lets make sure we give a good account of ourselves and you will be surprised at the outcome.
I know i am a miserable sod and i get on everyones nerves its just i have been honoured to play in some outstanding Bramham teams, players like Lee Jones, Gary Shooter meant you had 6 or 7 captains out there every week.
I have the honour of leading you out on Saturday against a very useful Thirsk team.
And believe me when i tell you its a very proud moment for me.
And this team we are building at Bramham is as good as any i have played in.
Lets go out with a Lions Roar not a whimper.
Thank You
JAY

Boys just to let you know how proud i am to be a part of the Team that Turned over Deighton in there own Manor.
No i am not pissed i am actually at work.

The attitudes last night were superb.

I know the Deighton Management and they were very Magnanamous in Defeat, maybe they should just have a little bit more control over what there Lads put on Facebook.
But Credit to Deighton they do play nice Football almost a little Bit too Nice, There Forward Line is slower than ours Heh Heh
Credit to all Staff But Mainly Mick Rich and Jacko, its starting to feel like a Proper Football Club Again.
