Current Staff[edit]
President: Sean Moyle
Sean became landlord of the Railway Hotel in 2008 after the sad death of his predecessor and has become a popular local figure and a well respected publican. When he took over the pub there was an existing sponsorship agreement with Rothbury Football Club which Moyle actively sought to enhance, offering to buy new kit for the first team. He has since taken an active role in providing food for both reserve and first teams after home matches as well as attending games as often as work allows. The Railway Hotel remains the club's headquarters as well as being the main sponsor.

Mark Bruce or "Brucey" became chairman in 2009 after his predecessor Jon Tait stepped down. Brucey has twenty-five years footballing experience in football having had numerous proffessional trials in his teenage years and playing top level amateur football in Northumberland. He is well known in the region having been top scorer in the NNL repeatedly down the years as well as being a faithful servant to Rothbury for his entire career, scoring more than 150 goals for the club.
