The 'Villagers' change hands

There has been a change of ownership at North Ferriby United, the bottom club in the National League North known as 'The Villagers'. The club was first put on the market in March 2016. Up to 2015 Steve and Eman Forster injected a quarter of a million pounds into the club, but then said it would have to pay its way given the lack of commercial revenue and the small fan base.

The Forsters have transferred ownership of the club to Jamie Waltham, leaving the club debt free. Jamie Waltham, previously at Hull United and then East Yorkshire Carnegie, was at one time a player at the club. He is a local businessman working in areas such as property and gas fitting.
