GREENALLS Amateur Football Club will replace Tetley Walker at their current Long Lane home next season.

But if the Warrington Soccer League side does not live up to its promises, they will face the same predicament of being kicked out by the social club committee.

Tetley are urgently seeking a new ground by May 5 or else face resigning from the North West Counties League in which they are chasing the Division Two title.

Club chiefs say if no new base is found 'the team will probably fold'.

The 12 Carlsberg-Tetley Sports and Social Club committee men voted unanimously to evict Alan Aspinall's team following 'previous warnings' that the soccer team must spend more money behind the bar to help the social centre to survive.

Committee member Brian Gleave, former secretary of the soccer team, said: "The decision was not taken lightly and it has been hard.

"We need money to keep the club going. It is owned by the members now, not the brewery and numbers had been dwindling.

"There has been a complete refurbishment and we need to build up the social side to get that money back. But the soccer team are not using the club to help. They had been warned about it."

Greenalls have paid up front to use the facilities for next season.

Gleave said: "They have promised to hold two sportsman's dinners and quiz nights here and their three teams will use the club after their games, wherever they play.

"But if they don't live up to their promises it will be the same for them."

Tetley Walker soccer chiefs have made an attempt to share Warrington Town's Cantilever Park ground but have been turned down as it would mean Town having to give up their reserve side to accommodate them.

For Tetley Walker to continue they will have to find a new home outside of Warrington.

Soccer chairman Steve Plant said: "We are working hard to find somewhere else. We have a meeting with a fellow second division club on Sunday about a possible ground share."
