As far back as we can remember, the city of Worcester has been a city of football. While we don’t believe that Worcester has been playing football ever since it was established as a town back in 1722, we do know that football is hotter than ever right now. But what do you know about the history of football in our city?
We have decided to look a little further into the football history of Worcester, take a look at the latest events in the world of football, and see where the love for football has come from.
The beginning of Worcester City F.C
Of course, having a look at the history of football clubs in England, you cannot ignore Worcester City F.C., a club that happens to be one of the oldest English football clubs that is based in Worcestershire. The club was established back in 1902 and today they go by nicknames such as The Blues, City, and the Faithful. Since they first started, the club has without a doubt come a long way.
As time went on, the team won the League in the 1924/25 season for the very first time and went on to win the League consecutively in the 1028/1929 and 1929/1930 seasons. Once UK betting sites started popping up, it didn’t take long before they started offering great odds and betting options for their upcoming matches. This was alongside several other sports betting options, including major events such as Champions League betting options. Worcester City has played in several competitions themselves, where they ultimately reached the FA Cup quarter-finals.
Recently Worcester City Football Club made history, as they went on to win the league for the very first time after a whopping 45 years. Of course, this major 1-0 win over Thornbury was celebrated alongside their fans, taking them to the top of the Hellenic League. Before the game, both the team and their fans knew that they were just missing one last point to be crowned Premier Division Champions.
An exciting future for football in Worcester
For quite a while now, there have been talks about a new proposed permanent home for the team. Worcester City Football Club has now finally revealed its master plan for a brand-new stadium. This exciting news for both the club as well as any football fans in Worcester was first announced in November last year when they revealed that a stadium with 565 seats would be built and located in Fernhill Heath.
Simon Lancaster, owner of Worcester City made sure to urge fans to share their views and opinions on the proposed design and layout. A presentation of the upcoming stadium shows both a cricket pitch, eco-family housing, a community building, retirement living, and of course a state-of-the-art football pitch. The goal of this exciting plan is to secure the future of the football club, which we are positive it will do.
