Morton Villa Football Club 1953 -1996

Recommended Posts

Famous old Sheffield footbal team, Morton Villa. Founded in 1953 and eventually folded in 1996.

 

I played there at Greno Park from 1985- 1988 when it was run by Derek Fielding.

 

They are holding a reuinion for all ex-players/members on September 20th at Tankersley Golf Club.

 

I'm nothing to do with the arranging of it, but have contact numbers for the people who are.

 

Anyone else play for them?

My nephew Graham Hegarty played for them in the 80's.

I will tell him about this thread.

Cheers. Not a name I remember, but I was only 15 when I started playing for them and was just a "yoof" then. There's an article about it in the "Look Local" paper this week.

 

Think as a club they were always based North Sheffield but attracted players from all over South Yorkshire. I know we had 3 or 4 lads from Rotherham come and play at one time.
