Special game to mark Lapworth stalwart Tim Fell's 50th season

A GROUP of the current longest-serving players from across the Herald patch are teaming up to play in a special game to celebrate Lapworth stalwart Tim Fell’s 50th season at the club.

Fell joined the village team at the age of 19 for the 1973 campaign and during his stint at Lapworth he has seen lots of ups and downs, as well as plenty of funny moments on the pitch – far too many to include in the Herald he says.

The now 68-year-old, who turns 69 in August, is still going strong and showing no signs of slowing down any time soon, declaring: “I’d like to continue playing into my 80s if I can.”
