New Mills kicked off their 2026/27 pre-season campaign with an entertaining 3-3 draw against West Didsbury & Chorlton at Church Lane.

Recently, I had the privilege of capturing a truly unforgettable family moment — the moment my brother and his partner told the girls they’re expecting a baby.

At CG Media, every project starts with a story — and this one came with cowboy boots, classic hits, and a whole lot of charisma.

At CG Media, we love helping people tell their stories — and working with Gareth Hughes has been one of those projects that reminds us exactly why we do what we do.

In June 2025, CG Media became a proud player sponsor at FC United of Manchester — a club built on community, passion, and purpose.

We caught up with new signing Matty Thomson ahead of the 2025/26 season! Hear his first impressions of FC United, what made him join the club, and what the fans can expect from him on the pitch.

I was down at the pitch this week for a pre-season friendly as Gamesley FC hosted a Buxworth FC Select XI. With Gamesley being a new addition to the Hope Valley League this season, there was plenty of curiosity around how they’d shape up — and they certainly made an impression.

I’ve known James Ruffell all my life.
When I was around 15, he helped me record some songs onto a CD — yeah, remember those? It wasn’t just about the music. That CD meant the world to my family, especially my dad (God rest his soul). Those recordings captured a moment in time that we still hold close.

Pre-season is more than just results — it’s about preparation, team spirit, and laying the foundations for the season ahead. On a warm afternoon at Broadhurst Park, FC United of Manchester hosted Rochdale AFC in an engaging friendly, and I was privileged to be there with my camera to capture it all.

On a recent trip to Llandudno, I had the absolute pleasure of spending the night at Bryn Y Mor Hotel, and I can honestly say it was a perfect little escape.
