London Aberdeen supporters meet up to watch matches and also they have two football teams competing in two London leagues one on a Saturday and one on a Sunday. https://www.facebook.com/share/1F6ZhW8t7Q/?mibextid=wwXIfr Last updated: December 2025 EC Barrow
BARROW The Barrow AFC (National) Supporters' Club was formed in 1976 by a small group of the team's supporters exiled in the London area, with the aims of providing a forum for the exchange of news about Barrow AFC, organise travel to matches, and encouraging friendly links with the supporters of other clubs. The "National" in the title reflected the intention that the Club would cater for all Barrow supporters living away from the town, and our membership of 150 or so is spread around the country and abroad.
Members are kept in touch by way of a monthly newsletter, "The National Zigger". The name, is a link with Barrow's Third Division past, recalling a short-lived magazine, "The Zigger", published by the football club in the late sixties. For supporters in the London area, the Club organises travel to home and away matches subject to demand. For some games rail travel is organised jointly with other APFSCIL clubs; on other occasions we travel by minibus, or car. We also enter sporting and social events organised by APFSCIL whenever possible. Supporters elsewhere are encouraged to keep in touch with others living in the same area to arrange joint travel to matches, and to pool news and views of the football club. And wherever members travel from, there is always a warm welcome home or away on the terraces (and usually before and after the game in a convenient watering hole!) As a supporters' club we enjoy a good relationship with the players and officials of Barrow AFC. We assist the football club financially, with part of the money we donate coming from our Pontton and Predictions competitions, which give members the chance of winning valuable cash prizes. Each year members are given the opportunity of showing their appreciation of efforts on the field by voting for their Player of the Year, with the victor receiving an engraved trophy and also having his name added to a shield recording all the previous winners. Individual membership costs £6 per season (£10 outside the UK), or Family Membership for just £10, which covers two or more members living at the same address.

BASIL - Blackpool Association of Supporters In London.
The Blackpool Association of Supporters In London (BASIL) was formed in 1978, there having been a southern Supporters' Club as early as 1965. Over the years, membership has fluctuated considerably, ranging from 30 to 200! The fate of the football club has tended to mirror the plight of the London Supporters. Despite the team's fall from grace in 1978, BASIL have survived, continuing to support the club as best they can. This involves organising as much cheap travel to games as possible and also supporting the club in their many ventures. On the social side, the quiz team has been National Federation champions six times and the pool, darts and football teams have all had their moments. The Darts team continues to participate & a reformed Football team won Promotion & The Cup in their first season. BASIL Polo shirts badges & car stickers available to purchase. Along with regular e-mail updates regarding travel, tickets, events & meetings along with the designated PoC (Pub of Choice) for each match. THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT, THE FUTURE IS TANGERINE!! Bolton Wanderers
Bolton Wanderers Supporter Club London (BWSCL) was formed in January 1987 by a small band of exiled Boltonians in the (then) White Swan pub in Covent Garden.
The success of the '96-'97 season saw our current membership grow to 200. The annual subscription is £8.00 (£3.50 unwaged, £15.00 overseas) which entitles members to APFSCIL travel discounts, discounts at the club shop and a copy of our monthly newsletter 'The Trotter'.The Club is represented at the oche by the 5-a-side darts team which has competed in the first division for five years. Our 'successes' include a runners-up position and two cup semi-final appearances. The 11-a-side Football team will begin yet another season in the 3rd division in their never ending quest for mediocrity. The Club organises a wide range of social events including our meetings at The Lord Moon Of The Mall on the last Wednesday of every month. More informal gatherings are arranged on an 'ad hoc' basis and this year have included trips to members' weddings in Ireland and Aberdeen! BWSCL hopes to continue our strong links with the Wanderers at the magnificent Reebok Stadium. Over the last couple of years, interviews have been granted with players and staff and a representation awarded our player of the year trophy to John McGinlay on the pitch before the final game at Burnden Park.

BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION Seagulls Over London was formed in 1994 and so has celebrated the fifth anniversary of its formation, in a brighter period, following the troubled and turbulent times at the club. Brighton fans must have been wondering how many mirrors they collectively smashed, how many ladders they unknowingly stepped under and how many black cats they inadvertently kicked, back at the end of the last decade. The fortunes of Brighton and Hove Albion have seen a decline of almost biblical proportions. However things have started to look up. The move back to Brighton for the start of this season has heralded a new period of optimism. New Albion has a lot of expectation to live up to.
Seagulls Over London is independent of the Club and of other groups, such as the Independent Supporters' Association (BISA) and the official supporters club. However, we have close links to the club and, together with all the main supporters' groups, representatives of Seagulls Over London meet Dick Knight and the Board regularly. The campaigns to Bring Home The Albion and to promote the "Yes Yes" campaign owed much to this co-operation. Membership costs £5. We currently have over 30 paid up members and membership is growing annually. A broad range of social events is organised. The Official Matchday Pub is The Nelson in Trafalgar Street. Main meetings take place on the third Monday of alternate months (September - May) in The Albert Pub in Victoria Street close to Victoria Station, starting at 7.30pm. Representatives of the Club attend regularly: Dick Knight, Martin Perry, Nick Rowe, Bob Pinnock, Martin Hinshelwood, Dean Wilkins and Ian Culverhouse have each attended a meeting in recent seasons. Last season we arranged seven trips for some of the furthest of the away games and two weekends away at Shrewsbury and Halifax. This season we expect to run trips to all of the 18 away games furthest from the Capital. This will be mingled with social events in and around Albion's home and away fixtures, to make Seagulls Over London one of the most active supporters' groups. Match sponsorship of the away games at Rochdale show that Seagulls Over London will travel far to support the Albion and have a good day doing so. Preparations for the rigours of the new season, in which match fitness was clearly going to be a priority, required some arduous pre-season training. Endurance, team spirit, directions, timing and alcaholic capacity were all put to the test. The visit, within one day, to all the pubs in the Greater London area bearing the name "The Albion" was a memorable and testing experience. Some weakened, but most completed the course, which finished close to Dick Knight's London home. Members come from all backgrounds and occupations. Students, in London to study, have joined for a year or so, those moving to the London area for longer periods have also found much to retain their interest. Our eldest member has been an Albion fan for almost 70 years, so there really is something for everyone. Priority in booking travel is given to members from all over the London area and further afield. We have some notable recruits in Worthing. If the travel arrangements will permit, we will travel with any Albion fans willing to stick to the specified trains for the journeys and to behave in a responsible way. With the prize of Falmer now tantalisingly close, the continued good behaviour of all of us has never been more important. For anyone interested in joining or in finding out more about Seagulls Over London, we would like to hear from you. For more information contact Paul Whelch (tel: 020 8981 2915 (H) or 020 8981 9400 (W)). Or visit our website. Last updated: March 2000 Burnley
The Burnley London Supporters' Club was founded in 1976 by a small number of fans on their way back from a match at Norwich City. The Club has always been an autonomous body, being founded before the formation of the main Supporters' Club in Burnley. The Club has enjoyed a good relationship with Burnley Football Club. The current membership total stands at around 160. Membership is divided into two categories: Adults and Overseas - membership fees are currently £25 for Adults, £30 for Overseas. In the past, the club has organised travel to both home and away games, but the combination of fixture changes and rail fares means this is no longer possible, though members do aim to travel together whenever possible. On the social side, the club participates in the Quiz League, and also arranges meets before London games. The Annual General Meeting of the Supporters' Club is held in July. The AGM is a very well-supported event, usually attended by our Hon President and ex-Chairman of Burnley FC, Barry Kilby, along with a representative from Burnley FC, -Chief Operating Officer Matt Williams has attended for the last two years. Our magazine "Something to Write Home About" contains a mixture of match reports, club news and members' articles, both current and historical. We produce six issues a year.

CHESTER For those Chester supporters who live away from the city, then the Chester Exiles supporters club is for you, we aim to cater for City fans from all over the country.
The Club (formerly known as the Southern Branch and then Chester City Exiles) was started by a group of four people back in November 1983. The aims then were to primarily arrange shared travel to matches and hold social functions with other exiled supporters. Since the demise of Chester City and the setting up of a fan-owned 'phoenix' club in 2010, the Exiles have been at the heart of the development of the new proud club. In 2011 we became the official Exiles section of City Fans United, the fans' group which owns Chester FC. There is no separate membership fee for joining the Exiles, but all City Fans United members who live away from Chester are automaically members of the Exiles. We are active members of APFSCIL and have run a team in the Darts League for many years. We also aim to co-ordinate travel and meeting points for Exiles attending Chester away games. http://chesterexiles.blogspot.co.uk/ Enquiries to the secretary Steve Mansley: Flat 8 Cannon Court Cannon Grove Fetcham Leatherhead Surrey KT22 9LS Last updated: February 2013 EC Coventry City
COVENTRY CITY The Coventry City London Supporters Club (CCLSC) was founded on 25th November 1976 and is still going strong. In fact current membership (just over the 300 mark) is at record levels despite the Sky Blues descent to the game's third level thanks to the formation of Sky Blues International in 2009, a collaboration with the parent club to boost the profile of Coventry City overseas, which gives SBI members free membership of CCLSC. In all over 250 members have signed up across more than 40 countries. Fees for UK based meanwhile are £10 (Individual) and £20 (Family).
Although we are completely independent of both the main supporters club in Coventry and the parent club, CCLSC has excellent relations with Coventry City FC and award an annual Player of the Season trophy, usually at one of the home games near the end of the season. In the recent past, we have organised dinners and forums to which Coventry City have sent past or present representatives. We also published our own 21 year history back in 1997, a history updated, largely pictorially, in 2004. CCLSC are strong supporters of APFSCIL which we joined in February 1977. Over the years CCLSC has competed in the APFSCIL darts (1978-2006) and football (1983-2000) leagues, and also entered a team in the Home Counties quiz league from 1977- 1993. sadly the predictable decline in membership following City's demotion from the Premier League means an annual 'tilt' at the APFSCIL darts cup is our only sporting activity. We are also affiliated to the Football Supporters' Federation and the Association of Coventry City Supporters Clubs and Groups (ACCSCAG). Despite all the changes in the rail network, our aim is still to get our members to matches in comfort and at the cheapest possible prices, whether by organising our own travel or in conjunction with other APFSCIL clubs. Our main channel of communication with our members is our website, whilst monthly electronic newsletters are also produced to keep fans upto date with club activities. For further details please contact Martin Garrett (APFSCIL Rep.) on 020 8902 2091, or our membership secretary Sara Robb Or visit our website. Last updated: January 2013 Derby County
Derby County Supporters' Club London Branch (DCSCLB) has over two hundred members, the majority resident in London and the Home Counties. The London Branch is part of the official supporters' club and has developed an excellent relationship with Derby County over the seasons.
DCSCLB's main function remains to encourage as many of our members as possible to travel to watch The Rams. We arrange rail trips to weekend home games and away matches. We nominate one pub as our official meeting place prior to all matches. We keep our members in touch with events at the Club and in the Branch by publishing our newsletter Capital Ram, at regular intervals throughout the season. We also have a thriving Facebook community at https://www.facebook.com/groups/capitalrams and can be found @capitalrams on Instagram. Our standard membership fee is £5-00. We offer various memberships including a 'partner' membership for two people and a family rate. Rather than a membership card, we produce a badge that is sent to all members. Full details for anyone interested in joining our ranks are available from our Membership Secretary, Peter Roe Last updated: December 2025 EC Everton
Everton Supporters' Club - London Area (ESCLA) was founded in January 1975 - on a trip to Plymouth Argyle for an FA Cup 4th Round tie - and is the Everton FC-affiliated supporters' club for London and the South East. Membership currently stands at more than 700. Subscription rates - at £15 per season, with family membership discounts, have remained unchanged for many years.
The Club exists to bring together all Everton supporters in its home area. It achieves this principally through the organisation of travel (where possible) by train or coach and tickets (subject to availability) to all Everton FC first team fixtures. In addition, a regular newsletter is produced. Other social events - such as meeting the current team prior to London games as well the opportunity to hear the reminiscences of former stars - are regular occurrences. More information can be found on the ESCLA website. For more information contact Ian Critchley, Membership Secretary Last updated: October 2013 EC Exeter City
Doesn't life have a way of throwing up coincidences? 20 years to the month after a few Exeter fans met in a pub at Leyton Orient after a Division 3 game in November 1991, we found ourselves celebrating our birthday at the same venue and in the same division. In the 2019/20 season we can relive this during the last away game of the season. Out of those small beginnings we have grown into a global supporters group keeping members as far afield as Australia, Norway, Taiwan and wherever the Seabourn Odyssey is currently sailing informed of the latest news and views from St James Park. Most importantly, we exist to get supporters to City games. Each and every week we organise travel, meeting places, match tickets and, if necessary, accommodation. We're usually able to get cheaper fares than people can get on their own and, of course, there's the added bonus of a group of die-hard Grecians with whom to share the journey, the banter and the cider armadillos. Contact Neil Le Milliere on the e-mail address below to get details about any trip or to go on the mailing list for details of all trips throughout the season. Regular participation in the APFSCIL pool, (football) quiz, and darts leagues means even if you are a casual fan there are opportunities to get involved and are very welcome – ability not necessary but helpful. Unfortunately, our football team folded last season due to a lack of player availability, but we’d love to revive it if anyone out there wants to take it on? See below for contact details of how to get involved. In 2012 the Exiles visited the Greek Island of Andros for the sixth year. It began when a City fan, tracing her family history, met a retired non-league footballer, who ran a villa on the island and had played up front for Weymouth with Ex-city striker Alan Beer. A chance meeting has now morphed into an annual fans' match on the island surrounded by a week of sun, sea, sand and socialising. We’ve continued to visit and in 2020 will be going for the thirteenth time – which in this case will be lucky for us and anyone wanting to join us. Membership of the Exiles for the current season is £10. For this you receive: A membership card which has the season's fixtures on the reverse; Priority Membership Booking for all ticket games An exclusive pin badge We will also send you weekly e-mails with news about ECFC and the Exiles; events happening in London; travel updates for forthcoming games; and a committee to both represent, and to arrange events for, you. Websites and Facebook Groups: Exeter City Official Website ECFC Supporters' Trust Exeter City Facebook Exeter City Football Club Supporters FB Discussion Group East Devon Grecians Facebook Great Western Grecians Facebook Norwegian Grecians Facebook Exeweb - Unofficial Fans' Forum Devon Live News Website GNET is a Google Group email list and another forum for fans to engage, chat and air views on football in general and the club in particular. It’s a closed Group and you’ll need to email Neil to be added to it.

HEART OF MIDLOTHIAN London Hearts was officially formed in early 1984 in the Lyceum, a pub (where else?) just off the Strand and less than a year later was recognised by the Federation of Hearts Supporters' Clubs. The London Hearts website http://www.londonhearts.com/ is regularly maintained by Davy Allan Our current pub of choice to watch any televised games is the Sir Alexander Fleming, near Paddington. They always prioritse Hearts games over any English Premiership games, and there's usually a decent crowd cheering on the boys in maroon. We also play in the APFSCIL pool league, which is a great social night and good opportunity to meet other London based Jambos.

HULL CITY Hull City Southern Supporters are an independent supporters group based in London, but with members from all over the country and in places as diverse as Germany, Brazil and Nepal. Formed during the 1983/84 season by exiled City fans who realised they kept catching the same trains on a Saturday morning, the membership has grown to many hundreds and is active in encouraging attendance at City games and participation in sports and social activities. Group travel is arranged (by train or minibus) to any matches where there is sufficient interest and car sharing is encouraged and co-ordinated from all parts of the country.
For the inflation-busting price of £6 (payable direct through our website via an eform or PayPal) members receive the indispensable Travel Guide, which contains hand-picked pubs for meeting up pre-match at all away games (usually with a high standard of beer and food on offer) and our regular home pre-match location. Match tickets can also be collected from the pub(for those games where tickets have been made available to us, members may order and purchase tickets via HCSS website). Members also receive an end of season review magazine 'Tigers Eye' as well as invitations(via regular email bulletins) to social events -- which include regular Fans Forums with representatives from the club, and organised screenings of live TV games, together with ad-hoc events such as the recent evening with our Honorary President Mark Herman (including screenings of his two football related films) and a forthcoming charity auction with an Ex Tiger as guest of honour. The club has run a football team in the APFSCIL league for almost 30 years and is constantly looking for new players (and spectators/groupies!)to join the squad for a relaxed and friendly, but competitive, standard of football-- which also has an active social side, incorporating a summer tour usually in sunnier climes) and challenging matches against the Ex-Tigers and HCSS veterans. We currently have an active pool team ( also looking for new players), a lapsed quiz team and also arrange ad-hoc sporting events/tournaments ranging from mini-golf to pair cricket. We look forward to hearing from new members, so sign up and get involved. HCSS Website Last updated: January 2013 EC Leicester City

Stags Outside Notts. was formed in the 1984/5 season when a group of exiled Stags' supporters met up at an FA Youth Cup-tie at Watford.
Membership grew steadily mainly thanks to the efforts of chairman Bernard Savage. Our affiliation to APFSCIL began in 1990/1 when we were invited to join by the London Owls following a third round FA Cup-tie against Sheffield Wednesday. The club has historically organised regular social functions over the years including away match travel and weekend trips to some of the Football League’s more exotic locations! An old tradition for Stags exiles and a highlight of the social calendar is an annual pub-crawl when on the third Saturday every July we visit all eight London pubs called 'The Stag'! The football club has historically benefited from our activities mainly in the form of kit sponsorship from the successful fanzine 'Size 10 1/2 Boots', which was published for a number of years.

In 2022 we made Caps membership completely free and now have over 500 members. We hold an AGM every year, often with a guest from the club for a Q&A, as well as social events wherever possible, particularly around London away games.

The first meeting was held in the Ordnance Arms in St. John's Wood following an announcement in the Standard newspaper. Membership remains fairly constant and costs £10 per season. Members receive regular bulletins and a Travel Guide to find their way around the various away grounds, and with a suggested meeting pub. We occasionally organise group travel and more frequently suggest the best train to catch to away matches and selected home matches. We also arrange social events, including a “meet the manager” event and a Christmas party, as well as finding a venue to watch any televised Argyle game. We often organise weekend trips-particularly to Belgium. We participate in the APFSCIL football, darts and pool leagues. We have sponsored the kits of Argyle players and currently the manager. We hold regular committee meetings at which all members are welcome, traditionally in the Hoop and Grapes, Farringdon. Our largest social gathering last year was a dinner to celebrate our 40th anniversary, attended by players, manager and chairman.

The London Millers are an independent organisation of Rotherham fans, based mainly in London and the South East, but also worldwide. We have members from all over the world, including Australia, Finland, Chesterfield and Sutton-at-Hone.
We are affiliated to neither Rotherham United nor to the official Supporters Club, but we do have a good relationship with the club. We were formed in 1981 by two people, Jenny Hurst and the late Dave Baister. Jenny is now our Honorary President. At the time of formation, the club was going through its best run in the last fifty years, winning the Third Division Championship in 1981, and just missing out on promotion to the old First Division the following year. Our membership is around 60 which is a reduction from previous years (when the club was more successful). Current subs are for 2025/26 season: £5 individual membership £5 for family membership £5 for unwaged members £5 for new members We also encourage those who can, to make a voluntary contribution. We don’t generally organise match travel anymore given dwindling numbers and most members now buy their own match tickets unless it’s a game we know a number of members wish to attend. We then make arrangements with the club for a bulk order. We keep up to date through a members-only WhatsApp group and Facebook page, and we are looking to re-establish a website. This is helpful so we can plan a suitable venue for pre- and post-match drinks. The London Millers have until recently published a twice-yearly magazine, but given the costs, we now aim to produce a more frequent newsletter which will be emailed to all members. Each season we are one of the sponsors for a match at the New York Stadium (which we invariably lose) and where possible, against opponents from the south. We also run a player of the season competition. We very rarely bother with a trophy for the winner as they’ve generally cleared off by the start of the following season! Although we are no longer involved in APFSCIL football or pool competitions, we are still active in the darts league. Last updated: December 2025 EC Scunthorpe United
SCUNTHORPE UNITED
FULL NAME: Scunthorpe United London and South East Supporters' Club. DATE FORMED: August, 1987 - the inaugural meeting of six exiled Scunthorpe supporters living in the capital was held in The Chandos on Trafalgar Square. It was a 'test the water' kind of meeting to see if there was enough interest to form a London Supporters' Club – we've been going 24 years now, so there obviously was! INDEPENDENT/AFFILIATED: We are an independent supporters' club with no ties to the official SUFC Supporters' Club. OTHER AFFILIATIONS: Only APFSCIL CURRENT MEMBERS: The club has grown steadily since its formation and we have averaged around 100-120 members for the last 10 or so years. SUBS RATES: £10 (adult), £5 (under 16) TRAVEL INFO: Trips to away games usually by train. Home games on either car sharing basis or by train. Travel Secretary is Matt Gray (email: [email protected]) FUNCTIONS: Darts team playing in APFSCIL League is usually the main reason for get togethers. Weve been members of the darts league since the early nineties. MEETING PLACE: No official club meetings held as such, only informal get togethers now and again, and Darts matches. Our home venue for darts is the Stamford Arms, Stamford Street, SE1 CLUB HIGHLIGHTS: 1. Without a doubt the four charity cycle rides we have organised since the sad death of chairman John Birkett from cancer in 1998. A year after John's death, a sponsored cycle ride from Leyton Orient's ground to Glanford Park, Scunthorpe, was held in March 1999, in aid of Cancer Research in his memory. Five SULSESC members cycled the 180-mile journey in three days and raised more than £6,000 for Cancer Research. Since then, further rides have been staged to Bournemouth (in 2000), to Torquay (in 2001) and most recently in April 2011, from Loftus Road, QPR to Glanford Park when nearly £13,000 was raised through sponsorship for RNLI and Diabetes UK. 2. Increasing the usual Saturday bar takings at the Bricklayers Arms Greese Street by more than 400 per cent on the occasion of United's promotion at Wembley in May, 1999!

SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY The Sheffield Wednesday London Supporters Club (known on a day to day basis as the 'London Owls') was formed in 1974. It enjoys a very good relationship with both the football cluband other affiliated supporters groups.
We have approximately 100 members who are primarily resident in London and south-east England, but also The Netherlands, Sweden, Thailand, and a few who have returned north, remain as members. Annual fees are £5 for full membership, £10 family membership and £2.00 students and OAPs. Travel to games is organised by rail, taking advantage of the various group travel discounts on offer. However, when there are insufficient numbers to travel by train, or for night games, when there is no suitable return service, then we travel in private cars. Members also receive an email newsletter on a regular basis. Over the past few seasons we have held numerous social events which have been attended by a host of ex-Wednesday favourites that include David Hirst, Paul Williams, Andy McCulloch, Danny Maddix, Phil King, Lawrie Madden, Brian Marwood and Bob Bolder.

SOUTHAMPTON The London Saints Supporters Club were formed at an inaugural meeting held at the New Savoy Tavern, Savoy Street London WC2 on 2nd June 1978. We are officially recognised by Southampton FC. The majority of our members either live or work within the Greater London area and the Home Counties, but our membership expands to all parts of Great Britain as well as having members living as far afield as Denmark, Finland and Luxembourg.
Over the years London Saints have held many evenings with the Management, Players and Staff of Southampton Football Club and we actively try and maintain this tradition. This has included question and answer evenings to post match occassions with the players. A few years ago we organised an excellent 'evening with the Ex-Saints' and had players coming along from five decades, including heroes from the FA Cup victory in 1976. Following our formation we began to participate in the APFSCIL sports leagues, and while we do not have an active football team, we have regular cricket fixtures as well s continuing to participate in the pool and darts leagues. We hold annual Christmas get-togethers to which all are invited. London Saints organise both Home and Away match tickets as well as train travel wherever possible. Membership costs have remained at a resonable rate throughout our existance and prospective members can easily join or find out more information by contacting any committee member under the contacts list. Finally, members are kept in touch with events by means of our bi-monthly newsletter 'Waterloo Sunset' now nearing its 150th edition, the London Saints website and email flashes.

The Sunderland AFC Supporters’ Association London & Southern
England Branch) was formed in 1967. Initially London-based, membership attracted fans in the Home Counties and beyond and so the Branch’s extended geographical base was reflected by the change to its current title in 1974. The Branch is an Associate Member of the parent Supporters’ Federation in Sunderland, is an Affiliate member of the Football Supporters’ Federation and was one of APFSCIL’s original members. Membership is consistently around 450 and while the principal objective is to promote support at all Sunderland’s games, it also has cricket, darts, football and quiz teams competing either in APFSCIL leagues or in friendlies against other supporters’ clubs. Travel to home games is mostly by the direct Grand Central rail service from Kings Cross to Sunderland but coaches have occasionally been arranged for games elsewhere which due to timing have been inaccessible by rail. A newsletter “Wear Down South” is published at least three times per season and frequent contact with members is supported by a regular email bulletin. Further details are available on the Branch website on which it is possible to register on-line for membership. Last updated: December 2025 EC WEST BROMWICH ALBION
The London Baggies, were originally founded in 1976, and then reborn in December 1990. We were formed by Rab Rogers RIP in September 1976 and our first trips saw us beat Spurs 4-2 and Man Utd 4-0 at the Hawthorns - not a bad start! We were the first supporters branch to sponsor a game and had our own fanzine the "Euston Express" before such publications became popular. Although support dwindled through the eighties Paul Mason resurrected the branch in December 1990 after an away game at West Ham although the branch had been starting to come together a few months prior to this. Tony Vass took over in 1994 before then handing over to Chris Wallett. Chris then handed over the torch a few years ago to the current chairman, Steve Watts (el Presidente!).
The London branch membership automatically affiliates members to the main WBA supporters branch in West Bromwich - with whom we maintain close contact. We run independently held meetings in London, but we have recently decided to run our meetings in conjunction with our regular events (usually involving ex-players) to ensure we get as many people as possible in attendance. This has been important in recent years given the changing arrangements for games due to TV and the impact of Covid. Our meeting nights and venues tend to change but are usually well-publicised a few weeks in advance via our Facebook, Twitter and Website. We try to arrange travel to most games, organising rail trips for Saturday home games, and most away games. Occasionally we will hire cost-effective travel via minibuses (and driver) when rail travel proves challenging. Our very successful and well attended social evenings are arranged from time to time with special guests attending and we will usually invite other London supporters’ club branches where a player has played for other teams during their careers. For these events we try to use well-known (and reasonably prestigious) small London venues using our personal contacts. We do tend to ask for small donations to charity for these events to support those trying to change the world for the better. Match tickets for home or away games can be obtained through the London Branch for members, though availability can be very limited for big games or small grounds! Regular travelling members WILL always receive preferential treatment for the limited allocation games. Max Davies does particularly sterling work for us on travel, tickets and social evenings. As Chairman I’m also grateful for the efforts of everyone involved in keeping the club going and publicising its benefits. We produce our own fanzine / newsletter 'Baggie Shorts' - free to members – and previous issues are available on our web-site. If non-members want a copy please contact us – we don’t intend to make a profit we just want to cover our costs. Baggie Shorts appears about three/four times during the season carrying match reports, branch news and miscellaneous items. The London Baggies have been known to run a successful pool team in the APFSCIL League. We are still the only team to field a (then current) Premiership player for the pool team (thank you Jonas Olsson – although doubling the black to finish was outrageous - sorry Exeter!) Our membership is usually around 150 - 190 each season, and this year the subscription is £15.00 Adult, £20 Family & £10.00 Concessions. We do sometimes put on special membership offers, particularly for younger concessionaries where cost may be an issue. This is with the intention of ensuring the growth and continuance of the branch. We have expanded from 80+ members a few years ago to our current numbers nudging 200 and as a thriving branch we would love more people to join us and realise what they have been missing! We hope to have fun despite the football; good football is just the occasional bonus! Steve Watts, Chairman, London Baggies.
