Swindon Supermarine F.C. are a football club based in Swindon, Wiltshire, England. Currently they are members of the Southern League Premier Division. Their ground is floodlit and is situated close to the Honda Plant in Swindon.
History
The club was established in 1992 as a merger between two local clubs, Supermarine F.C. and Swindon Athletic F.C., both of which were struggling financially, taking the latter club's place in the Hellenic League Premier Division. In 1997–98 the new club won the Hellenic League championship but were not promoted due to ground requirements. The championship was won for the second time in 2000–01 and this time they were accepted into the Southern League. After four years of struggle at the foot of the table, not helped by a rapid succession of managerial changes, they qualified for the play-offs in 2005–06 but lost to Hemel Hempstead Town in the semi-finals. In 2006–07 they again reached the promotion play-offs, where this time they were successful after beating Burnham in the semi-final and Taunton Town in the final. This earned them a place in the Southern League Premier Division.
At the end of the 2009–10 season, the club announced that it was facing a financial shortfall of £50,000, which would affect its immediate position in the Southern League.[2]
A supporters consortium saved the club through various commitments and a sponsorship drive and they continue in the Southern League Premier Division in the 2010–11 season. Part of the sponsorship drive included the ground sponsorship which was taken up by local company H J Webb & Son and the ground will be know as the Webbs Wood Stadium from August 2010.
In February 2011, manager Mark Collier and assistant Tom Jones both resigned due to proposed budget cuts. [3
