| Club History |
Dunkirk FC were founded in 1946 and their nickname is ?The Boatmen?. The first league they joined was the Notts Amateur League, of which they were members until 1975. They won the Premier Division in that season, the clubs first major honour. Accepted into the Notts Alliance League, they got off to a good start, eventually finishing runners up, five years later they were champions. In 1981/82, Dunkirk reached the semi-final of the Notts F.A Intermediate Cup, a feat they repeated the following season. In the league they led Division One for much of the season. In 1986/87, the club finished 9th and reached the semi-final of the league losing 2-0 to John Player. The following season saw the club improve on that semi-final by winning the League Cup, leading scorer that season Mark Frettingham hitting all 3 goals in the final. At the end of the 1988/89 season, followers of the club might have been forgiven for thinking their team might never win the Notts Alliance Senior Division Title. After hitting top spot on 25th October, they led the table for 25 weeks, then dropped 6 points in as many games to finish second behind Hucknall Town by 4 points. The next season saw them runners up again, this time behind John Player by 2 points, in the Notts Senior Cup they reached Quarter-finals before going out to Eastwood Town in a penalty shootout. Dunkirk again ended as bridesmaids in 1990/91, seven points adrift of Rainworth MW who took the title in a late burst. In the League cup they reached the final with Pelican. Dunkirk lost 2-0 after a replay drawing 2-2 in the first game. In 1991/92 they slipped to 9th in the league, but improved up to 4th the following season. They also entered the FA Vase for the first time but made a quick exit by losing at home 5-1 to Lincoln United. 12 months later they beat Nettleham 5-3 to win their match in the competition, but the best was yet to come. In 1993/94 they had a magnificent run in the FA Vase reaching the last 16 before bowing out to Tiverton Town. 1995/96 saw the boatmen make their debut in the Central Midlands League, scoring 130 goals as they finished runners up to Kilamarsh Juniors and so gained promotion to the Supreme. In the 1997/98 season they finished in 4th place and won the League Cup beating Clipstone Welfare 2-0 in the final at Hucknall Town. In 1998/99 season Dunkirk secured runners up spot again snatching it from Goole on the last day of the season with a 2-0 win over South Normanton. The high expectations for the 199/2000 season never materialised with the club finishing in 6th position in the league. The 2000/01 season saw the Boatmen?s worst season in the Supreme Division finishing 10th. 2002/03 saw the Boatmen beat Sutton Town on penalties to win the Floodlit Cup and also reach the league cup final losing though 2-0 to Dinnington Town At Alfreton Towns ground. Last Season saw Dave Harbottle take over the reins as manager and Wayne Manners as his Assistant, in which they guided the club to 6th in the league Table. The 2004/05 season may be the greatest season in history for the Boatmen, winning the Central Midlands Supreme Division for the Very First time and also reaching the Floodlit Cup and the League cup final. They lifted the Floodlit Cup for the second time in three years with a 2-0 win against Clipstone Welfare. Unfortunately the Boatmen lost in the league cup final, losing 1-0 in a tight game against Sandiacre Town at Alfreton Towns ground
