History


Formed in 1989 as Police A.F.C., they share the clubhouse and pitch with Pulrose United. They played their first few seasons in Division Two. They won their first trophy in the 1994–95 season when they won the Paul Henry Gold Cup, beating Ronaldsway in the final.[1] They were promoted as Division Two champions in 1995–96.[2] In the 1996–97 they finished in seventh place in the First Division, the club's highest league placing to date.[3] They stayed in the top flight until the 1999–2000 season when they finished in last place and were relegated to Division Two.[4] However, they also reached the final of the Manx FA Cup, where they lost to Gymnasium.[1]


They reached the final of the Woods Cup in the 2003–04 season, losing to Michael United on penalties on 22 February 2004.[5] The following season they again reached the Woods Cup final, this time losing to Corinthians, 4–1 on 26 March 2005.[6] The club changed its name to its current incarnation in 2012.


The club has a reserve team that play in the Isle of Man Football Combination.


In 2015 the club got its sponsorship from Old Mutual International.[7]

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
