Any Reds supporters, born after 1983, probably missed out on one fantastic Borough Park experience.

During our time as a Football League club, we experienced some wonderful matches in the Football League Cup.  Over seventeen seasons, we established a fine reputation as cup fighters - emerging as giant killers on numerous occasions, holding First Division opposition three times and actually knocking out a top flight opponent in a replay on their own ground.

Borough Park became our new home in late 1937 but the first team didn’t win too many trophies to adorn the boardroom at HQ.

Following our election to the Football League in early June, 1951, the Workington supporters eagerly awaited the publication of the fixture list for Reds’ inaugural season in the Third Division North.
