It's full time, the Colls exit the FA Youth Cup 🏆 All of the lads deserve their plaudits for stepping up to face a higher level team at a higher age bracket, and especially their fantastic defensive showing second half. Best of luck to Wythenshawe in the next round 🤝

We are underway in the FA Youth Cup! It's been a lively start at both ends, with a great double save from Zak Williams for the Colls, but Wythenshawe lead 0-1, '07 🏁

To the young players, don't be afraid to drop a level or two. If you are good enough, you'll go back up if you are playing well and enjoying it. Go for minutes not money. Big thanks to @WRAFC1stTeam and @OfficialDHFC for giving @Liam_sheppard9 the chance @ACFC1916 Up the Colls
Atherton Collieries@ACFC1916Jun 26
We would also like to wish a warm welcome back to Liam Sheppard ✍️ The 19-year old striker made his Colls debut at 16, scoring twice on his full debut 🏁 The Colls Juniors graduate picked up this season's NWCFL Div 1 Golden Boot & Player of the Season awards for Daisy Hill 🔥
