A club spokesman said: "The club would like to thank Andy at the Goods Office for the past two years work.
"The club would also like to thank The Woodlands who have taken the club on board and hopefully will repay them with bringing success to the pub which it used to have with the football team back in the 80s.
Mark Lockwood the secretary of the football team goes on to state that The Woodlands seems to be the pub at the moment where everyone wants to go and the football team are looking forward to be playing from there.
"The pub is thriving again under a new management team and the club are grateful of their chance to be playing from there," he said.
"Meanwhile the club would like to thank new kit sponsor Pete Finch of Classic Cleaners for buying the new kit."
Both teams see two new managers on board as well.
The first team sees the return of Dave Munday as manager with Rod Graham his assistant.
The reserves meanwhile see Mick Head taking over the reigns from Antony Andrews who has stepped down for work reasons but will still be on the committee. Mick is still undecided of his assistant.
