Scunthorpe United Football Club are an English association football team based in the town of Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire.
Nicknamed The Iron, they played the 2008-2009 season in the Football League One after one season in the Football League Championship, the first time they played at that level in 45 years. After placing 6th in League One they won promotion to the Football League Championship through the Playoffs defeating London club Millwall 3-2 on Sunday 24 May 2009.
Scunthorpe United, formerly known as Scunthorpe and Lindsey United, among other names, has existed since 1899, but did not join the Football League until 1950 when the league structure was expanded. Their first game was against fellow new entrants Shrewsbury Town.
Scunthorpe were the first club in England to build a cantilever stand, four years before Sheffield Wednesday's at Hillsborough.<\/P>","9B2CF1B8E224CFD097332B024E65EDED":"18","E917916C02D12AF6D7EA48F7303A1362":"","5BAF7C8A60756B540D834B0A0F0B7C9C":"0","76505AA7FEAE524629F3119E5AE1B881":"Glanford Park, Doncaster Road Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, DN15 8TD","C12329A43735BD683D9F19F4C632272A":"England","6EB6F6F47FE792764A0F2C28812F2AC0":"Tranmere Rovers","64A2290C09C50CF35B7DBD9C8F3A2F5E":"79kg","39EE935EB0ECE6E5":"24.04","B9284411187FEFF20D941F8E3FDF6E1E":"England","64CC7FC06580777C":"Keith Hill","798114606EDBEE4E25243C6C8C1B5714":"Tranmere Rovers,Bolton Wanderers,Rochdale,Barnsley","38882684D19FD665":"Scunthorpe United","5B70C105C09228B419825F9D2D3BB765":"","F3825434658EC407":"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Glanford+Park+Scunthorpe&sll=52.939936,-1.132472&sspn=0.001862,0.005665&ie=UTF8&ll=53.586668,-0.694875&spn=0.001755,0.005665&t=h&z=18","0192D11C6FFC52B1FA5A279107C4769C":"Keith Hill","D649C50F893C14D0":"admin@scunthorpe-united.co.uk","CC482DEE81E43A3D":"http:\/\/www.scunthorpe-united.co.uk","691614162C53789F7BF95A6EBC086644":"183cm","02EB7DF46653B329":"Scunthorpe United","94A63A88C13097EB":"Scunthorpe","473E4F49EDE372FCCD98814B96C64159":"Glanford Park","989AD94B51E25F0B":"102988","781CC09C30E6A152":"1","5F7B7520852B84068F743240139E0997":"","A20449E387E65FAD0B1A86B77F820411":"2021-11-5","e_index":8};
