Congleton Town F.C. are a football club based in Congleton, Cheshire, England.
In the 1989-90 season, they managed to reach the First Round of the FA Cup. They are currently members of the North West Counties Football League Division One.
The chairman is Peter Evans and the manager is Anthony Buckle. The club's former manager, Andy Lee, was unbelievably sacked at the end of the 2006-07 season. This was seen as a very strange move by the club board as the 06-07 season had been one of the most successful seasons at the club for a long time.
It has been muted in some quarters that, should the club again fail to gain promotion by the end of the 2007-08 season, the present club board's position will be untenable. Long-suffering supporters have had to endure endless numbers of managers coming and going, with no noticeable upturn in the club's fortunes on the pitch.
The ground capacity is 1300. They are running a reserve side also. The reserve Manager is Ronnie Green.
Congleton Town Supporters Trust was formed in 2001. The trust aims to help the club through sponsorship and community projects.
Congleton Town Football Club are now Mid-Cheshire Champions beating Witton Albion Reserves 3-0 away.
