On Tuesday 2nd September the proposal by Mr Greaves to give £15,000 to safeguard the future of the world’s fourth oldest football club received unanimous support at a cabinet meeting at Worksop Town Hall.

However Greaves’ recommendation was met with some opposition and concern on the night.

On Saturday Mr Greaves said on Twitter: “16th September, 6:30pm, Worksop Town Hall - local Tories will be attempting to stop 15k council help to @worksoptownfc.”
