Football Club

APPERLEY FOOTBALL CLUB

The club shares a close link with the cricket club as the players who have starred for the cricket club have tended to be the best football players as well. There is currently only a few who play both as some who are too old or just too wise to play football on a Sunday Morning. It has been a village based side and without being, Royston Vasey-ish, we would like to keep it that way. No strangers please!

The club play in the C & G Sunday League Division 2 after being relegated (who were they missing last year???? no, not Nick Stacey!) last year after working their way through the divisions (mainly through clubs leaving and finishing 3rd or 4th) but did manage to win their only cup when they defeated their local rivals, Tewkesbury YMCA 2-1. (Nice!) Next year, they lost in the final. The youth section has been reformed with local village Norton to be called, somewhat imaginatively, the Apperley and Norton Eagles.

Contacts: Ian Coggin Captain or Offa (as in Christ - offa and after the brick outhouse that was Willie Offenagahue (spelling? no wonder they called him Willie O!!!) Just watch the Rugby World Cup Final of 1991 to see what a great player he was. Match reports will be coming soon!

Blow up the picture to see 'arold and sherm when they were young! Any photos appreciated.
