THE RISE OF STOCKPORT 🎩📈
From National League North to the brink of League One in 5 years… Stockport County 👏
The Hatters, like their Premier League namesakes, are rising up the leagues and are just a small number of games from making their promotion from League Two official.
Jim Gannon took Stockport up from the National League North in the 2018-19 season after they spent 6️⃣ years at that level, dropping down from the Conference in 2013.
After that promotion, they spent just 3 years in the National League - narrowly missing out on promotion the season prior - finishing below Sutton United (1st) and Torquay United (2nd) before they fell to playoff heartbreak when Hartlepool United secured their place in the EFL, knocking out Stockport on their way to the final where they beat Torquay in Bristol.
It was Dave Challinor that then left newly-promoted Hartlepool the following summer and joined Stockport in the National League where he would eventually guide the Hatters to a 94-point 1st place finish, 6 points above Wrexham.
Challinor’s side look set to reach League One next season, too. Paddy Madden’s hattrick at Sutton United secured a 3-1 win and moved them 4 and 6 points clear of 2nd and 3rd respectively (with games in hand) as well as 7 above Mansfield Town who themselves have hit a rough patch 👀
Unbeaten in 9, 4 successive wins, it won’t be too long before we see Stockport continue their sensational rise 🔥
