Stalybridge Rovers Football Club was an English football club from Stalybridge, Cheshire at the end of the 19th century and early 20th century. ==History== Stalybridge Rovers joined The Combination in 1894, staying for one season, finishing fifth. In 1895 they joined the Lancashire League and played there for eight seasons; they were League champions in 1900–01. They left the League in 1903 to join the Second Division of the Lancashire Combination, winning promotion to the First Division in their inaugural season. However they finished bottom of the division in 1906–07 and left the Combination soon after. Stalybridge first entered the FA Cup in 1894, enjoying their best run in 1899-00, beating South Liverpool, Stockport County and then Burslem Port Vale 1–0 in the Fifth Qualifying Round before losing to Bristol City 2–1 in the First Round proper.〔 The club made two attempts at entry to the Football League, in 1900 and 1901. The first attempt only gained one vote. The second attempt saw them gaining the same number of votes as rejected League members Walsall, seven, but they lost out to first time applicants Bristol City, who gained election with 23 votes.〔 Rovers folded in April, 1908, when the club became unable to pay its players. Failure to fulfil a fixture at Clitheroe Central led to expulsion from the Lancashire Combination second division. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stalybridge Rovers F.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
