David Haythornthwaite

Chairman

Club Chairman David Haythornthwaite, a good friend of President Dai Davis, is a successful local businessman and Chairman of the Tangerine Group. His first involvement with the club came as Main Sponsor Vetplus in 2006 and his involvement grew into the development of a new era of AFC Fylde, which kicked in after the club’s greatest day as Kirkham and Wesham Football Club, winning the FA Vase at Wembley.

He brings ambition, drive and professionalism to the club in its long-term bid to be in the Football League by 2022. With David’s investment and sponsorship, the club have gone from strength to strength, and the club’s development since his involvement has taken the AFC Fylde to the next level. Roles were reversed with Dai Davis in the summer of 2011.

David has overseen the rise through the leagues as Chairman and has invested wisely in all areas of the club, including the Mill Farm project.

Dai Davis

President

Dai’s association started with the club as a Player when the club began as Kirkham in the 60s. After his long association as a player and stints living abroad, he returned to the club in 1993 when he became Chairman. Since that time Dai orchestrated the rise of Kirkham and Wesham FC. Success soon followed and with his significant financial support combined with the appointment of Mick Fuller together, they enjoyed year-on-year success winning West Lancashire League titles, League cups, LFA Cups and competitions through the 90s. Davis backed the move to Kellamergh Park in 2006 when he was joined by good friend and successful businessman David Haythornthwaite and together they kickstarted the club’s transition to AFC Fylde and subsequent move up the non-league football pyramid from Step 7 to Step 4 in 3 Seasons. The pinnacle of his reign as Chairman has to be Kirkham and Wesham’s finest hour in May 2008 winning the FA Vase – a proud moment for a long-standing Chairman. Roles were reversed with David Haythornthwaite in the summer of 2011. 

Since 2011, Dai has been an active member of AFC Fylde and is the Club President.
