Description

Spennymoor Town F.C. is an English football club based in Spennymoor, England, and playing in the Northern League Division One in the English football league system.

The club began playing in the Northern League in 1931/32 as Evenwood Town, reaching the 1st round of the FA Cup in the 1956-57 season. In 2005, the club changed their name to Spennymoor Town. The club's current fan base consists mainly of supporters of Spennymoor United, who folded in 2005.

The club plays its home matches at The Brewery Field and play in black & white strips. Their nickname is "The Moors" and local rivals are considered to be Bishop Auckland. The club tried to change its name to Spennymoor United before the 2006/2007 season however, the FA rejected the proposal. The fans hope one day to get this name back.

The current manager is ex Middlesbrough player Jamie Pollock, currently in his second spell in charge of a club with Spennymoor in its name, having joined in July 2006. His first spell at Spennymoor United was successful in 2003, the club gaining promotion to the UniBond Premier Division.
