2022/23

So, that’s it for another season with the Mighty Bluebirds.

Ending with a brilliant 1-0 win on the road against Dulwich it was a shame that win had to come at the expense of their relegation however, we can only focus on us and what a tremendous year it’s been.

A record points tally in the National League South, a record breaking run in the FA Trophy and who could forget, dumping out league opposition in Lincoln to make the 2nd Round of the FA Cup for the first time in this clubs history, also beating a team from the EFL for the first time in history. 15 games unbeaten is the best run of form since Chippenham won the Southern Premier League in 2016/17 and doing all of this whilst consistently staying within an allocated budget and with another record breaking year for 1st Team debuts for players within our Academy.

So many people to thank for the great season we’ve had starting of course with the players, their families and our terrific management team that have withstood a large number of comments and opinions when things weren’t quite clicking and going the best, their resilience to stand defiant and stay the course with their brand of football is now being truly vindicated with the terrific results that have seen us rise from a tricky position to comfortably mid table with the form guide over 25 games leaving us 4th and only being beaten 3 TIMES in 2023!

To our Board of Directors. Another amazing year of support from them has given us a brilliant club to support and many fantastic memories home and away. The success on the pitch truly starts at the top with clever management of the club and under the stewardship of Neil Blackmore, this club is as lucky as any in Non-League Football to have such a dedicated, driven and passionate Chairman.

But finally, a huge thank you to our Fans. You guys have been absolutely class at times this year providing a vocal support, an average of 600 at the TS Stadium and some huge occasions on the road couldn’t have been quite the same without your constant support.

This is a special club and once again we’ve proven this year without a shadow of a doubt, we belong at this level of football and who would bet against us keeping this team together and having another great season next year at Chippenham Town!

Well done everyone and see you all in a couple of months!

Up the Bluebirds!!!

Re: 2022/23

Well said, Voice.  Completely echo that.  There is a lot to give thanks for at CTFC... not least, as you said, a Chairman with vision, integrity in sticking with the way he wants football played at Chippenham, and at every level, and the generosity and resources to back that philosophy up.  Looking at the financial floundering of so many clubs, we are lucky indeed.

Re: 2022/23

On the whole has been a really good season. Yes, we had a dodgy period but came through it and finished a creditable 13th. An amazing cup run, some good away days (especially at Twerton) and attendances have gone up. Happy summer everyone 😁
