Club Statement: Ian Harrop

Representatives of the club met with Ian Harrop on 15 February 2025 to discuss Ian’s ban from the hospitality areas of the stadium. In the interest of moving forward in a positive manner Ian was informed that he is now welcome to return to the hospitality areas of the stadium with immediate effect.


During the meeting Ian expressed concern about comments made regarding him on the usual social media platforms. As a club we do not condone the abuse of any individual, be that a board member, employee, volunteer or supporter.


The decision to impose the ban was not made pursuant to the club’s official sanction policy as the circumstances giving rise to it were outside the scope of the policy. As such, it has no impact on any stadium ban which has been imposed pursuant to the sanction policy, all of which remain in place on the terms notified to the individuals concerned.


The club and Ian have resolved the matter amicably and now regard it as closed.

Match Info: West Didsbury & Chorlton (H), Sat 15th Jan, 3pm KO

We last faced West a few days after some good performances, including a convincing home win against local rivals Prestwich Heys. But we suffered a 4-0 loss in South Manchester, a result Dave and his team are itching to set right.

By coincidence, the return fixture follows another good performance against Prestwich. There was only ever one team in it as we won 2-0 at Adie Moran Park.
 
That victory made it five in five games, and the long-awaited clean sheet was a welcome sign of progress – along with the signing of gifted left-side defender Reece Kendall.
 
So we now face West on top of the table, on our own pitch at Gigg Lane, in great form, and with a strong squad strengthened even further.



All this gives us every reason to be cheerful about our chances of taking revenge for the result in Chorlton and making it six wins out of six.

Plenty of noise will help, so please come and shout for the lads. Up the Shakers!

      In Opposition – West Didsbury & Chorlton
West have had mixed fortunes since their big win against the Shakers. Their next match was at North Shields in the fourth round of the Isuzu FA Vase, and they lost 2-1.
 
Since then they’ve won three, drawn one and lost one. The 2-1 defeat was in a home game against none other than Prestwich Heys.
 
The club dates back to 1908, became West Didsbury AFC in 1920, and added Chorlton to the name after acquiring their own ground in 1996.
 
They joined the NWCFL in 2012 and were promoted to the premier division after just one season.
 
  On the Day & In the Ground
Our Matchday @ Gigg guide is available to read to find out everything you need to know going on in and around the ground.

Kelvin Etuhu will be our guest in Starkies from 1:20pm.

Saturday is also our dedicated fixture for Greater Manchester Hate Crime Awareness Week.
 

As a club, we remain heavily committed to working with and for the Community, and at a time dedicated to raising awareness of hate crime and how to combat it.

Next Monday (17th) we will be hosting an event at Gigg Lane in conjunction with Bury Council and Manchester United Street Reds all aimed at raising awareness of Hate Crime in Greater Manchester, and how to combat it.
