Story
Loughborough Football Club has sufferd severe damages to the changing rooms and thefts of equipment during the pandemic.
Loughborough football club has been around for many years and some of your children may have even played for us.
We are hoping to continue to be around for many more years and everyone will know John B the life and soul of the club but the mindless vandalism has caused alot of heartache for a man that is Loughborough through and through
even during some health issues he still attends the ground picking up litter and keeping it operational now on his motorised chair. He will try to continue this whilst he can and hopefully bring enjoyment for many more footballers playing for the club.
It is true Loughborough football club has seen better days and we all know this but the hardwork as never stopped.
Anyone thats met John will always know he’s there for a good old chin wag he loves his football on Saturdays and Sundays its his time to get out the house and go and enjoy it with everyone.
This page is just so Loughborough football club and John can be able to repair the cabins or replace, rebuild his tea bar and repair the fencing inc the stands so everyone can come and enjoy the beautiful game in safe suroundings.
Loughborugh football club gets very little help from outside and most of it is out of Johns pocket or other small donations.
Loughborough football club has asked for help only to be overlooked for the last 15/20yrs by authorities that have the power to help.
This club could be a massive community asset for under privileged Kids to come and enjoy letting off steam the right way its never been a club looking for profit and we still hope one day to build a 4G pitch and the purpose built buildings that’s been in the making for years. The stubling block is the council and the Fa which needs to be negotiated but its just unfortunate that the help is not there and costs alot. The club is in real danger of not being able to continue and could fold without donations and help from the community.
If you have read this and feel that you could spare a pound to help the club, please do every little helps.
We know we are in a rough period but lets all stay safe and get through this together.
Thank you
