Moulton travel over to Stamford AFC on Saturday to play Nuneaton Town (KO 3:00) in The Sports Ground Development UCL Cup.

Nuneaton Town Football Club are a Warwickshire Club based in Bedworth. The club began in 1889 when young men from Nuneaton St. Nicholas Parish Church formed a football team, Nuneaton St. Nicholas FC to represent the town. Originally playing only friendly games, in 1894, the 'Nicks' changed their name to Nuneaton Town Association Football Club, which they played under until 1937. In 1936 the club sold its Manor Park ground to Nuneaton Corporation and on 13 May 1937, at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, it was decided to shut down the football club despite it being financially sound. Two days later, the club was reformed as Nuneaton Borough F.C. with the club playing at a new ground, Manor Park (1937-2007) and Liberty Way (2007-2008). The club nickname became established as ‘The Boro’. They played under the Nuneaton Borough banner until 1991 when the club liquidated for the first time. After the club reformed they changed their name to Nuneaton Borough 1991 F.C. During this time the club had some historic cup victories including a 1–0 win over Division 2 side Stoke City in 2000 and in 2006 they scored a late equaliser at home to Premier league and UEFA Cup side Middlesbrough. Then in 2008 the club was liquidated due to poor financial performance. The club was once again reformed and reverted to its former name Nuneaton Town and suffered a two-division demotion, from Conference North to Southern League Division One, although the club was promoted back to its former division over the following two seasons.The club continued to be known by its former nickname, ‘The Boro’. During the 2018–19 season the club reverted to its former name Nuneaton Borough F.C. after overwhelming support for the change from supporters. In October 2023 the club were locked out of Liberty Way and the were issued with an eviction notice with debts of around £650,000 and bosses claiming that the club had been behind in rent payments since 2019. This eviction notice led the club to having to play what they feared to be their last ever match at the home of Stratford Town, however the club could afford to play a further two away matches thanks to the efforts of supporters. On 23 November 2023, the club confirmed that they had been taken over by DA Capital. On 18 January 2024, the club confirmed their withdrawal from the Southern Football League Premier Division Central for the remainder of the season. Following advice from their legal advisors that their offer to purchase the stadium would not be considered and that a lease agreement could not be reached, investors had pulled out any financial support, meaning the club would be unable to continue trading. Following resignation from the league, it was announced the club planned to go into liquidation, along with a plan to reform a new club in the lower leagues. Numerous bids were made by various parties for a reformed club, eventually it was announced that a fan lead group would be forming a new club with it being decided the new club being named 'Nuneaton FC’. However it was announced in February 2024 the new club will be playing their home games at The Oval of Bedworth United FC, part of a two-year deal with an option of a third year. With plans to build a new stadium within the town on site of the Gala Fields in Nuneaton. In addition it was confirmed that it was unlikely that their former home of Liberty Way would host any football matches in the near future. Ahead of the 2024–25 season, the club joined Division One of the Midland Football League as Nuneaton Town. During their first season, the club were promoted to the Premier Division as champions having amassed 103 pts from their 42 games played (32 wins; 7 draws; 3 defeats). The club's home colours are blue and white, which are usually represented as vertical stripes and the club remain known by some supporters as 'The Boro’.

This season saw them take the UCL Premier South Division title with 88pts from their 38 games (27 wins; 7 draws; 4 defeats) although, with the title in sight, they did struggle with 6 games remaining:
Eynesbury (H) drew 1-1
Godmanchester Rovers (A) drew 2-2
March Town (A) drew 0-0
Atherstone Town ( H) lost 0-2
Coventry United (A) lost 0-3
Their last win was on the last day of the season away v Sileby Rangers 3-0.

Our games against them this season saw us lose both, a 0-5 away in Sept and 0-4 at home in Dec.

On the weekend that Moulton progressed to the final with their win over Gresley Rovers, Nuneaton Town took on Boston Town (Premier Division North Winners) in the Premier Division Champions Cup and ended up on the losing side 0-2.

Nuneaton Town progressed to the UCL League Cup final by default. Having lost at home to Div 1 side Coalville Town in the Semi-Final 1-5, Coalville were excluded from the competition due to playing an ineligible player.
