Ely City

Ely City Football Club is a football club based in Ely, Cambridgeshire, England. They are currently members of the Eastern Counties League Premier Division and play at the Unwin Sports Ground.

History

Ely City was established in 1885 by members of Ely St. Etheldreda Football and Cricket Club and are the oldest senior football club in Cambridgeshire. They joined the Cambridgeshire League in 1901, but withdrew during the 1902–03 season due to a dispute over fees. However, they rejoined the league the following season. The club absorbed Ely Albion in 1908. Promoted to Division One in 1921–22, the club were Division One runners-up the following season. They finished as runners-up again in 1924–25. In 1928 the league was restructured with Ely placed in Division One A. They finished bottom of the division in 1928–29 and were relegated to Division One B.

Further league restructuring in 1931 saw Ely promoted to the new Premier Division. They were relegated after finishing second-from-bottom in 1936–37, returning to the Premier Division in 1946. The club won both Cambridgeshire Senior Cups in 1948 and were Premier Division runners-up in 1949–50. In 1951 they left the Cambridgeshire League to join the Premier Division of the Peterborough & District League. They were league champions in 1955–56, and in 1956–57 the club reached the first round of the FA Cup after winning five qualifying rounds. Drawn at home to Torquay United, they lost 6–2 in front of a crowd of 4,223. The season also saw them finish as runners-up in the league, a feat they repeated the following season.

In 1958 Ely joined Division One South of the Central Alliance, where they played for two years before being elected to the Eastern Counties League. In 1967 former Northern Irish international Hugh Barr was appointed player-manager, leading the club to runners-up position in the league in 1968–69. They won the Cambridgeshire Invitation Cup in 1969–70 and the Eastern Counties League Cup in 1979–80, beating Lowestoft Town 4–2 on

Gary Neville's complete Man Utd U-turn after "best four teams in Europe" claim
Gary Neville's criticism of Manchester United following their embarrassing defeat to Liverpool is a million miles away from the bold claim he made just weeks earlier. The Red Devils are in the midst of a poor run of form, losing five of their last nine in all competitions. Performances have left a lot to be desired, but things peaked on Sunday when the Reds won 5-0 at Old Trafford.

Man Utd consider sacking Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following Liverpool humiliation
Manchester United chiefs are considering sacking Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following Sunday's humiliation by Liverpool. The Red Devils have suffered five defeats in their last nine games, and are without a win in their last four Premier League matches. Having been expected to challenge for the title after a big-spending summer which saw Solskjaer backed in the transfer market with the arrivals of Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo, the 5-0 thumping by Jurgen Klopp's side could spell the end of the Norwegian after a start to the season mired by inconsistency.

Salah's Liverpool message after putting Man Utd to the sword at Old Trafford
Mo Salah declared winning the "only option" for Liverpool after they hit Manchester United for five on Sunday. The Reds ran riot at the home of their arch rivals with the Egyptian grabbing a hat-trick to continue his scintillating form. Liverpool were 4-0 up at half-time and, in truth, probably could've scored more had they pushed on following Paul Pogba's sending off on the hour.

Manchester United's capitulation to Jurgen Klopp's men laid bare the stark chasm between the sides, with the 5-0 score line heaping pressure on the Red Devils' boss. Solskjaer cut an angry, disconsolate figure on the touchline as Mohamed Salah and co put his team to the sword.

With Mohamed Salah taking centre stage for Liverpool yet again, it would be easy to forget the quality of the Reds' defensive display in their triumphant victory at Manchester United. Jurgen Klopp has the best player in the world firing on all cylinders in attack, but he also has a star-studded defensive line without which Salah's goals would be futile.

If you were to ask a non-football fan to watch the last few Manchester City games and then guess which talent costs £100m - chances are Jack Grealish would not be their answer. While the former Aston Villa captain has hardly struggled since making his mega-money move to the Etihad earlier this summer, to say he has performed anything close to justifying his status as the most expensive British footballer of all-time would be way off the mark.

Chelsea have won their last four games in all competitions by an aggregate scoreline of 15-1.
