Welcome to the all new Deva Chat F.C board!

Firstly I would like to publicly thank Graham May (Lurd) and Lee Wilcox (Woody) for their previous management stints at the team, Thank you!

Graham got the first ever DCFC team arranged who travelled to Southport for the debut match of the DC fans team, before we took part in a 7-aside tournament in Chester against other supporters sides where we finished 4th. After Graham came Lee who resurrected the side and entered us into a supporters’ league, the first season was a struggle but enjoyed by all. During the second season some things changed on and off the field and as you are probably aware DCFC became AFC Chester, and moved away from this forum for differing reasons (which we wont dwell on) and it left a lot of the Chester fans disappointed with the set up, meaning some people left and some remained at AFC Chester, those who remained collected their Challenge Cup winners trophies on Saturday as AFC won the competition.

So now it seems it is a new era for Deva Chat F.C and I hope to play part in making it as successful if not more successful than AFC Chester have gone on to become.


Regards,

Phill

I'd like to echo all of Phill's sentiments above. It is great to be back, as the "Deva Chat FC" Chester City supporters team returns - separate from Woody's AFC Chester, of course. The way things are going currently, it looks like a very promising future will be had.

VIVE LE REVOLUTION.

bringing the supporter's team back to actually being supporters.

Careful, Andy

Best of luck to all involved with the new Deva Chat FC. It is good to see the name resurrected. We decided on a change of direction for a number of reasons that we still stand by today and I know that a few people didn't agree with the decision so I admire their will and determination to get the name back up and running.

I wish you nothing but the best for the future and will always take a great deal of interest in your developments.

Deva Chat FC - Onwards & Upwards

Well done!!

There's a thought... what shall our club slogan be? A return to Onwards & Upwards or Vive Le Revolution/Viva La Revolution? Something to think about.

Thank you Woody means alot!

We might even have a kit that we'll consider donating to you should you need one.

I prefer "Viva La Revolution" myself.

DCFC really does remind me of FCUM.

With far lower attendance figures (They play at Gigg Lane and get bigger attendances than Bury get)!!

Actually be careful what you wish for. FCUM has non-Manchester United fans playing for em!!!

good to see dc has a new club again

Why don't you come down for a try out? Theres always room in the team bath

AFC Chester v's Devachat FC - What a fine first match for DCFC

The biggest derby in football

And probarely the easiest!

think ill pass ont hat one thanks for the offer tho

Complacency is over-rated. I have confidence in my team-mates here at Deva Chat FC. A potential match against your lot will certainly be interesting.

What's with the signature above your post count? I don't believe Phill has selected a captain, and we haven't played any matches for anybody to be leading goalscorer. I thought you played for AFC Chester anyway? Just reminding you that you might want to alter it.

Well technically as you lot aint actually played any games yet and Statto did play for DCFC then he is still top goalscorer and was also captain at one point. You guys need to get some fixtures under your belt to somebody can overtake him.

Techincally he plays for AFC Chester, so technically he is not Deva Chat FC's captain or leading goalscorer. If we were to sign Dean Holden, who I believe is Peterborough's club captain, then would he still be their club captain untill next season, or pre-season at the earliest? I wouldn't have thought so, so let's agree to disagree!

He has still scored more goals for DCFC than any of you lot. Have you appointed a captain yet?

No wonder the original team disbanded if this is how well you all got on

I'm sure the management will appoint a captain when they feel the time is right. I cannot speak for them, I am just offering you my personal opinion.

Elton, I see the "rivalry" banter has started already. One might say that they are our Shrewsbury Town

We didn't disband EB. We changed our name. I'm being pedantic I know, please excuse me.

And the beat goes on!

Children, can you please play nicely!

You can be a clubs leading goal scorer to your grave, but you can't be the captain if you don't play for the team.

The signature should either read "DEVACHAT FC TOP SCORER AND EX-CAPTAIN!" or just "DEVACHAT FC TOP SCORER!"

Simple really.

Do you have any management yet? Who is manager?


Nail on the head there CB

There is CB's voice of reason, so let's put this to bed now. We want to keep a professional image, even though we aren't quite a professional club... yet!



I'm sure the management would be all too happy to inform you, Woody.

I'm not that rightly arsed to tell you the truth, it's just that on another thread there was the suggestion that it was Phill but when I spoke to him last night he said he had too many other commitments to take on the job of gaffer. Slightly confusing when it comes to trying to arrange a friendly against you guys that's all.

After tying up loose ends last night it has been confirmed that the managers of Deva Chat F.C are Phill Lambe (Phill) and Mark Ephgrave (Steveo1)

Details on a coach and club captain will be announced in due course.

ahem.

Ah, the classic squabbling is back, Devachat Forum is back to it's best I feel.

yeah back to its best, when is the friendly going to be arranged then?

Yes, however I for one refuse to bow to ex-Deva Chat FC players attempting to gain a reaction from us.

Quite right Nath.

Statto, wait for the management to discuss it first and let them arrange a date. Something will be arranged in due course. As for the 'easy win' we shall see...

Yes we shall see Alan, care for a wager old chap?

Less of the old Griff. and surely betting on the result of a match that said players are in is illegal!?

i reckon we all have a little bet if you want lads whoever wins gets to decide what the future is for the opposition?

Somehow I don't think that's one of your better idea's that Statto

Go to bed Statto your drunk !!!!!.

Or high!?

sounds too much like a scene out of WWE as well.

I was not drunk or high!just thought it was funny like!

Only messing, Mancot. I for one think it's a cracking idea and wish you the best of luck, I think it's more of a true Chester fans team if I'm being honest. If I didn't have so many commitments right now I'd have loved to have played. Anyway, hope it all goes well and I'm certainly an interested reader of the board.

An excellent remark "sensible" badger...

where the bloody hell did all this come from?!?!?!?!?! could be some interesting games coming up!
