NORTHWICH VICTORIA have been given some more bad news after Witton Albion confirmed they would not be extending the Vics’ groundshare for next season.

Northwich have been deducted nine points from their total in the Evo-Stik NPL Division One North after fielding ineligible goalkeeper Mason Springthorpe earlier this season.

After they now have just three weeks to find a home for next season after league rivals Witton confirmed the Vics would not continue playing at their Wincham Park stadium next term.

The Vics have played at Witton for only one season after spells at Stafford Rangers and Northwich Flixton Villa following the closure of their Victoria Stadium home in 2012.

A Witton club statement read: “Witton Albion FC has today announced that the ground sharing agreement with Northwich Victoria FC is not being renewed for season 2016-17.

“Matches will continue to be played at the NetDec stadium for the rest of the 2015-16 season subject to all contract terms being met.”
