There is no better feeling than watching your team record a rare, high-scoring victory.  It gives you that feeling of invincibility for an hour or so after the game and, momentarily, you are on top of the world.

As the ‘Old Lady’ nears the end of an existence spanning nearly eighty-nine years, we have reminisced on some wonderful happenings from the Workington AFC archives.

The Unibond League Premier Division Promotion Play-off Final of 2004-05 will be a treasured memory for all Workington supporters, long after the controversy at the end of that season has been forgotten.

Having won the President’s Cup twenty years earlier, Reds again reached the two-legged final in 2004 and, second time around, faced neighbours Barrow on a ‘home and away’ basis.

We are all fully aware that Borough Park has been the home of Workington AFC since 1937, became Workington Town’s headquarters after the Second World War and has even been the film set for the 1940 production, ‘The stars look down’.

Borough Park was twenty years old when the club became the latest to invest in stadium floodlighting.

Reds were still coming to terms with life in the Northern Premier League in the late seventies and supporters, having adapted from following a struggling Fourth Division team, were now welcoming some famous non-league teams to west Cumbria.

Every Workington supporter worth his salt could give you chapter and verse on the 1958 cup tie versus Manchester United but that is just one of ninety-three FA Cup matches we have played in the competition at Borough Park.
