TRAFFORD FC ANNOUNCEMENT

 Tom Baker has resigned as manager of Trafford Football Club.

35-year-old Baker has been in charge at Shawe View for five years and won the 2019 Integro League Cup.  When the 2019-20 season was curtailed due to the coronavirus in March, Trafford were in ninth place in the Northern Premier League North West Division and had reached the final of the Manchester Premier Cup.

Baker was appointed manager in the summer of 2015. The former midfielder had a distinguished playing career which included spells as captain of Chorley and Halifax. Trafford was his first managerial post after having to retire prematurely due to injury. Baker also led Trafford to the Play-offs in 2017/18 and a Manchester Premier Cup Final appearance the same season.  

Baker has cited personal reasons for his departure. Everyone at the club sends their best wishes and huge thanks to Tom for his hard work and professionalism throughout his tenure, and for the success and memorable moments he has brought to the club. There will always be a warm welcome for him should he return to Shawe View at some point in the future.

The club has promoted from within and Baker’s assistant-manager Danny Caldecott has accepted the position of manager and is looking forward to the challenge ahead.

Trafford FC in conjunction with the Supporters' Club

are raising money to help the club survive...…..

Weʼre raising £5,000 to save the club so it will still be here next season as like many non-league clubs,

Trafford FC is struggling to survive.

Yes it really is that serious. The Coronavirus has caused massive issues for Non-league and community football clubs. Income has dropped to zero yet Bills must still be paid. The Government’s business loan schemes are simply not designed for non-league football clubs, and handouts from the FA don’t filter down as far as the Northern Premier League. Trafford FC was formed in 1990 and has a proud 30-year history, but 2020 could easily be the year of its demise…

The Club and its Supporters Organisation have been working together since the season was abandoned on

26th March to raise money during these dark times. We’ve run some “Virtual Match Days” that have raised about £1,000 but it’s vital that we raise more. We want to reach out to our local community, businesses and the greater football family for help and assistance. Anything you can spare will all go into the pot to keep our wonderful, local, friendly, family club going. Thank you!

TRAFFORD FC SAY A BIG 'THANK YOU'

On behalf of everyone at the club, a heartfelt “thank you” goes out to our amazing friends who have so generously donated to our Just Giving fundraiser. We’re genuinely overwhelmed to have already smashed our original target of £5k which we only dared to dream we’d achieve.

Every single penny will help our little club to survive this current crisis; that’s why we’re keeping the page open for those who would still like to donate. Please keep sharing our page - the more we can raise, the better our chances of being here for our

30th anniversary!

Trafford Manager Tom Baker resigns after five years at the club.
