As I'm writing this post the club are erecting what looks to be the worlds largest Banner virtually the width of the ground outside. must say it's very eye catching.
Nothing to get excited about, pretty meh really.Two clubs have announced friendlies vs us. VCD home to Welling United Tuesday 19th July Thamesmead home to Welling United Tuesday 26th July Nothing officially mentioned by us.
Good to be back seeing a new team onn the pitch. Was a struggle seeing so many new faces that working out who was who was a struggle! The upstairs bar looked really good and everyone who sampled the food including myself had positive things to say about it. A few exec lounge members I spoke to complained ab...
Hi all, I have spent a lot of time and effort in creating an unofficial website which will store all of this season's fixtures/results. It would be great if you could pay a visit and tell tell me what you think of it. benhopkinson99.wix.com/wufc-fixtures Cheers, Ben
Hi, I have a collection of old Welling United programmes that I am clearing out. They date back to 1981/82 season and at a rough estimate I would say there are in the region of 500-700 in total. Would you like to take them off my hands? Can deliver to shop. All free. Would hate to have to throw them and though...
So three hours or so until the fixture list comes out. One guess each and you have to specify home or away and no duplications. Anyone guesses right before the cut off time at 1pm wins a beverage from me in the bar at the first home game (no cheating Polo!) I will go for away to Hemel Hempstead. -- Edited by W...
I just wanted to let supporters know that I will be stepping back from the Commercial Manager role at the club Other commitments have meant that I cannot devote the time needed going forward so I have agreed with Mark Goldberg that I will step down. Hopefully someone will be in place soon I am grateful to...
There's a request on the official site to ask if anyone is free to help with some painting at the ground on Saturday. Be good to get a few there and make the ground look better for the new season. If anyone is interesres then please write on here or message me so we can see an idea of numbers.
There are a few on the market. Brandon Hall was released by Gravesend. He was highly considered and doesn't appear to have signed for anyone else. Chris Lewington has chosen to leave Margate. He started at E&B&Q but progressed through Fisher and the Omlettes into the league with the mutants...
So last year there wasn't a whole lot to sing about but this season with the players coming in I think we can be a little bit more optomistic. And as we have so many new faces I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread so that if anyone has a new song for the club in mind or for one of our many new faces to...
Hi all, Back for the new season. Got a new job based in Welling again. Bought a season ticket last week and am looking forward to what should be an exciting new season.
It would be appreciated if we had an update from the club on: have players reported for training; progress on refurbishing the two bars (pics); how ticket sales are going for the Charlton friendly (has the exec lounge sold out?); is MG talking to more new players (no names, obviously); how is sponsor...
Hi Welling fans I come in peace. Ive heard rumours from a few welling fans of investment for you guys including a new stand, buying the cricket ground and a decent playing budget through a mark Goldberg consortium. Can anyone confirm this or correct any errors as this seems quite an opportunity for y...
After enduring a negative/non-eventful last couple of weeks it was pleasing to see that we appear to have retained the majority of sponsors from last season. Including Anthony Martin as the Club's Main Sponsor. A huge well done to Paul White for his continued hard work and efforts, and of course many...
Signs for Braintree on a free transfer according to the official website. A real shame to lose Barney, i remember him coming in as a 17 year old at left back away at Eastleigh. An amazing performance from him led us to a 3-1 win. We bought all the players a drink in the bar after the game but couldn't get him o...
I am sorry to inform you that due to work taking place at the club that the quiz on Friday 10th June has been cancelled. The quizzes will return in September
Jay Saunders at Maidstone reckons he's landed a coup in the signature of Lokko (he's probably right) in that he thought we'd 'keep him' having spoken so highly of him (previous regime perhaps!). No idea whether there was any interest in holding onto him but anyway Maidstone are higher than us now an...
Looking at the Charlton Atheltic forums, there seems to be quite a few of their fans suggesting they're going to boycott Charlton and going to Non-League games instead, with many seemingly opting for us. One or two have even said they're getting a Welling Season ticket. Quite impressive considerin...
3 new signings on the website Pierre Joseph-Dubois from Bromely - Midfielder Bobby Devyne from Enfield - Striker. Rickie Hayles from East Thurrock - defender Welcome to all 3!
Dear all,Given that research is finding a more sanitised and gentrified culture of British football (see:https://www.academia.edu/18862556/Football_Fans_Views_of_Violence_in_British_Football_Evidence_of_a_Sanitized_and_Gentrified_Culture) , I am hoping you could spare a few...
It seems that we have signed a striker: Bermudan striker Jonte Smith. Apparently trained with us last season. The catch - played for a team further down the pyramid: Lewes.
