Flint Mountain appoint new chairman

Flint Mountain have confirmed the appointment of Aidan Middleton as the club’s new chairman.

The 29-year-old takes on the role with immediate effect and brings with him a strong commitment to the club’s values, long-term development and connection with the local community.

His appointment marks an important step as Cymru North club Mountain continues to build on recent progress both on and off the pitch.

“I’m honoured to be appointed chairman of Flint Mountain Football Club,” said Middleton. “This is a club with a proud history and a passionate community behind it.

“I’m looking forward to working closely with everyone involved to continue developing the club in a sustainable way and to ensure we have a positive and ambitious future.”

Flint Mountain added: “The club thanks all those involved in supporting the transition and looks forward to working under Middleton’s leadership as they move towards their next chapter.”

Mountain are in their second season in Cymru North, having been promoted as champions of the Tier 3 Ardal North West League in 2023-24.

In their first season at Tier 2, they finished a very respectable seventh.

This season began as a struggle with no wins in seven, but the appointment of Liam Dickinson as manager has delivered much improvement, wins over Ruthin Town, CPD Y Rhyl 1879, Penrhyncoch and Caersws lifting them to 14th spot.
