One club Bob!

Hanwell Town need just eight points from the eight remaining Southern League Premier South games to secure their best season in their 105-year history, making it the perfect way to celebrate chairman Bob Fisher’s 70 years of involvement with the Geordies.


Bob first joined Hanwell in 1955, making his debut on 15 October against Wood End Reserves. Over the next 22 years, Bob made 736 appearances for the club, which included 550 for the first time and a run of 341 consecutive games over a 10-year period.


After hanging up his boots, the Geordies stalwart moved to the dugout and was in charge when Hanwell moved into Reynolds Field, now the Powerday Stadium, in 1981. He was a tough manager, telling Dave Iddiols to continue playing with a broken ankle!
