After six years, it's time for us to say goodbye to the Butchers Arms as our home.

The lads will still be popping in for a pint whenever they're out in Chester!

Thanks for everything, Joan. 🍻⚽

A final thank you at this year’s awards ceremony to two outgoing club legends. Over 30 years of service & 600 games played between the pair of them. Both have been fantastic teammates over the years & even better men. Thank you Catt & Bora 💛💙

Captain. Leader. Legend. James Cattell.

We’re absolutely devastated to announce that our club captain has decided to hang his boots up. 😭💔

Catt has been the spine of every Butchers team over the past 16 years & an absolute giant of a man both on & off the pitch.

[OSC The Ranch @OSCTheRanch]

Loved by his teammates and respected by his opponents, he’ll be impossible to replace and missed immeasurably. An absolute legend of a player and an even better person. 💙💛⚽️

298 & out. Bora “The Butcher” - club legend

Steven Boroumand has chosen to retire. A founding father of The Butchers back in 2009, who has been crucial to the club’s story over the past 16 years. He goes down as a club legend & we can’t thank him enough for his commitment. 💛💙

Some valuable minutes in the tank to keep the lads sharp this morning against @fdfreegardenersfc ⏱️

There was plenty squad rotation & some new faces in the team today as we made it 6 wins in a row to keep up momentum. ⚽️
