Netherfield FC Team of 1990
This evening’s third race is kindly sponsored by a group of former semi-professional footballers who played for Netherfield FC during the early 1990’s.
The team, based in Kendal in Cumbria, played in the Northern Premier League (tier 8 of the English Football League system) under the management of former Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper Gary Pierce, who played in the 1974 League Cup Final at Wembley when Wolves beat Manchester City 2-1.
Just within the past week, the players received the unfortunate news that former boss Gary Pierce had sadly passed away at the age of 74, thus making this evening’s reunion even more special. Under Pierce’s leadership, the players of Netherfield FC became a tightly knit bunch - with the 1990 team still holding the record for the club’s best ever run in the FA Vase. Netherfield FC were formed in 1919 and became Netherfield Kendal in 1998, before then being renamed as Kendal Town in 2000.
The players from 1990, whose ages now range from 56 to 67, come from various areas of the North West, and have remained good friends from their playing days.
