Shirebrook Town F.C.

The club was founded as Shirebrook Colliery, and joined the Central Midlands League. In 1985–86 they won the Senior Division, and were promoted to Division One. In their first season in Division One, they finished second, and were promoted to the Premier Division. In 1993 the club changed its name to Shirebrook Town. However Castledine's reign did not last long; and after 10 games resulting in three wins and seven losses, he was sacked by the club and replaced by formed Sheffield F.C. manager Mark Shaw, who managed to guide the club to a respectable 6th position however during the close season Mark left to take over at Northern Premier League side Worksop Town. ==Stadium==

The club originally played at Warren Terrace, but later moved to Langwith Road. The record attendance of 2,200 was set in a friendly match against Mansfield Town, a match played as part of the sale of Gary Castledine to Mansfield. ==Honours==
