GROUND HISTORY TRAVEL

After finishing 17th in 2003/4 Conference season, and 15th in 2004/5, Tamworth finishing the next season as the second worst side in the league; Tamworth's survival purely down to the technicalities that penalised clubs around them in the table and thus saved the Lambs' bacon.

It was Tamworth who helped Boro' into the playoffs right at the end of the 2004/5 season by defending an onslaught from Morecambe and gaining a goalless draw. History may have repeated itself the next season, but failed to materialise as Morecambe won 3-0 at the Lamb Ground.

Tamworth simply lacked the quality in the 2005/6 season, and relegation simply confounded that inability to compete at non-league's top table. However, time to regroup in the Blue Square North reacquainted the Lambs with the aptitude needed to survive at the highest level of non-league football.

The Blue Square Premier had moved on leaps and bounds in the years between Tamworth's presence, but The Lambs certainly used the opportunity to rain on some parades in 2009/10 as Luton, Oxford and Stevenage were all found wanting in Staffordshire.
