20 April 2013 - Scarborough Athletic v Retford United [Set Two]

People have asked us on numerous occasions, are NCOC Scarborough Athletic supporters? Due to there being a number of feature matches involving the club.  Although we have built up a friendship with people involved at the club from Chairman to avid supporters, we remain neutral in our support of any one team. Our aim is to provide some publicity to clubs, players, officials, volunteers and supporters at all clubs we visit.  What Scarborough Athletic have done is ask us to get involved with them, providing photographs.  This applies to any club we can help during the season, so, if you're reading this and support a club that may benefit from a feature on No Clash Of Colours, don't hesitate in contacting us. We will help as much as we possibly can. You can contact us at : fotografica137@gmail.com or leave a message in the InterAction Box at the side > .

The second set of photographs from the Scarborough Athletic Promotion Party! If any "Seadogs", that's supporters  and players looking in recognise themselves or their friends/family, drop us a line at the email address in the contact panel. We'd love to hear from you and put names to faces.

Special Thanks to Dave Holland and all at Scarborough Athletic.

The final photographs from what was a momentous day in the history of this football club are those of the supporters. Without the supporters there is no club. Less than six years old, Scarborough Athletic have achieved two promotions from the Northern Counties East League, whilst pulling in healthy numbers, the prospect of moving back to their home town should see the club grow from strength to strength. From our experiences with the club, players, officials and supporters, we wish them all the very best and we hope that the relationship built up between "The Seadogs" and "No Clash Of Colours" will also flourish.

25 November 2012 - My Hero, My Inspiration

ERIC TAYLOR
Penistone & District 
League Winner
1955 - 56

*****

Everyone in football, no matter what level, has someone they can say was their major influence in becoming a player, supporter, official, journalist, photographer etc etc ...

This is for our late uncle who passed away just over a decade ago. Today is his birthday, 25 November.

He is the reason why I and my brother, started off in this love affair with "The Beautiful Game".

He took me to my first ever match, encouraged me to become a goalkeeper, although I never played higher than the ranks of Sunday League, I knew he was as proud of me as he was on that first ever visit to Bramall Lane. We travelled with him up and down the football league, mainly down at first, but then up in the late 1980s and early 1990s. We shared the sweet victories, the bitter defeats, the anecdotes with him until his passing away.

It took me a few years to return to Bramall Lane, on my first visit back I made a point of sitting in the seat he had for years as a season ticket holder. Happiness and sadness all in ninety minutes, so much so that I can't recall who the match was against.

We miss his love, his gentle nature and his company.

The trophy he won back in 1956 sits proudly on a shelf at home, he was goalkeeper in the team that won the Penistone & District League in the 1955-56 season. I will be researching this season for a future feature in this blog.

Everyone who reads this, will have someone in their life who is an "Uncle Eric".
This is also dedicated to those people, that special person who influenced you as I was back in the late 70's.

For Uncle Eric ...
For mine, for ours, for yours ...
