Brentwood Town Football Club - Commercial Brochure

THE HISTORY OF BRENTWOOD TOWN FC CLUB HISTORY The original Brentwood Town FC dates back to the 19th century! The club saw great success in those early days, reaching the quarterfinals of the FA Cup in 1886. Sadly, they were beaten 3-1 by Blackburn Rovers, but it was a great accolade to have made it that far. In the 1950s and 1960s the club operated as Brentwood & Warley FC and were 3 times winners of the Delphian League. In 1965 the club turned ‘professional’ becoming Brentwood Town FC once more. The 60s and 70s saw great success for the club as they rapidly rose to the heights of non-league football. Brentwood Town became a force to be reckoned with in the Southern League Premier Division, reaching the third round proper in the 1969/70 season. Following their successful run the club subsequently folded and amalgamated with Chelmsford City. BRENTWOOD TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB 8
