North Ferriby United A.F.C. are a football club based in North Ferriby, near Kingston upon Hull, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. They were formed in 1934. They reached the Northern Premier League Premier Division for the first time in 2005. They won the Northern Premier League Division One title in 2005.

[edit] History

North Ferriby United were formed in 1934 as a result of a village meeting during which it was decided that it would be a good idea to form a local football team. They first took part in the local East Riding Church League and, in 1938, they won the Division One title.

The club was re-formed after the Second World War and were admitted to the East Riding Amateur League. The immediate post war years proved to be very successful with the highlight being an appearance in the final qualifying round of the F.A. Amateur Cup during the 1949-50 campaign.

In 1969, North Ferriby improved their status when they joined Division Two of the Yorkshire League: the following season they captured the championship and also lifted the East Riding Senior Cup. The year 1975 saw them win the Yorkshire League Cup by defeating Lincoln United 2-0. Twelve months later they finished second to Emley in Division One.

The 1970s were a very positive period for the club and saw them win the East Riding Senior Cup three times. They reached the lofty heights of the FA Cup Third Qualifying Round stage in the 1980/81 season, where they lost away to Boston United.

In 1982 they joined the newly formed Northern Counties East League, finishing as runners-up in Division One North. Promotion to the Premier Division was offered to them but had to be declined because the ground facilities were not up to the required standard.

The 1985-86 season saw them take the Division One title and this time they were promoted. They also reached the Fourth Round Proper of the F.A. Vase and the following year went out in the Fifth Round to Farsley Celtic by 2-1.

Three seasons later national recognition came their way when they advanced to the semi-final of the F.A. Vase losing to Tamworth, after just shading the first leg at Tamworth 2-1.

In 1991, North Ferriby United won the inaugural President’s Cup, defeating F.A. Vase champions Guiseley 8-5 on aggregate. They also lifted the East Riding Senior Cup for the first time in twelve years and in the League Cup Final they lost 1-0 to Guiseley. The 1996-97 season saw them achieve the ambition of every non-League club when they appeared in the F.A. Vase Final at Wembley Stadium. A 3-1 aggregate victory over Guisborough Town in the semi-final saw them through to the F.A. Carlsberg Vase Final at Wembley Stadium on Saturday 19th May 1997. A 3-0 defeat by Whitby Town only partially marred their great day and their name is now proudly entered in the record books.

The next two seasons saw them miss promotion to the UniBond League but in 1999-2000 season they won the Northern Counties East League Championship and, with all the necessary work having been carried out to the ground, they finally achieved their long time goal of promotion to the higher level of non-League football.

The first season saw the club set a new post-war record by lifting the East Riding Senior Cup for a fifth successive season.

The 2001-02 season was the club’s second season in the UniBond League and the club’s progression continued with a higher League placing. The campaign finished on another high as the club retained the East Riding Senior Cup for a sixth year in succession, thus equalling the all-time record held by Hull City in a period which straddled the Second World War. The following season the club gained a place in the Promotion Play-Offs via fourth place in the table. Although the promotion push floundered on a tense evening at Radcliffe Borough, that disappointment was assuaged by the club taking the outright record from Hull City with a seventh successive East Riding Senior Cup triumph.

The 70th Anniversary Season, 2004-05, proved to be one of the most rewarding in the club's history as the young team clinched the UniBond League First Division Championship on the final day of the season at Mossley. The side led the division from early October and, despite a minor slump in March, never relinquished their grip on top spot.

Last season saw the club at the highest level in their history as they entered the UniBond Premier Division and led the table from the off until March. Despite missing out on automatic promotion, the club came close to joining Champions Blyth Spartans in the Conference North as they secured a place in the promotion play-offs thanks to a fifth place finish. They defeated third placed Frickley Athletic away from home on penalty kicks before losing the final by the odd goal in three at Farsley Celtic after extra time.
