CROUCH END?

In 1883, Balmoral FC, Crouch End was formed and by September 1891 took part in their first FA Cup match against Ashford United winning 6-2. They lost in the next round to Chatham. By 19th September 1896 Balmoral FC morphed into Crouch End Vampires FC as two clubs merged and in that season the club played their first London League match against Thames Ironworks losing 0-3. Their opponents, of course, soon became West Ham United,

In 1897 the newly formed CEV FC , now sited at Muswell Hill, joined the Amateur Football Defense Council, a new association which later became the Amateur Football Alliance, The AFA is an organisation that exists today, providing football for many at Non-League level, mainly in the South-east.
Crouch End Vampires were one of the original three founding members of the AFA, the others being Alleyn's Old Boys (old boys of a South London school) and the Civil Service. These two clubs also still play today.

Crouch End Vampires play in the Senior Division Two of the Southern Amateur League, having won promotion last season.
Yes its Crouch End again (note colour scheme) as Peter retired today at the ripe old age of 38. Here he is with wife since 2011, model Abbey Clancy. Crouch at 6'7" had his own style of play and team role as he drifted through being a ball boy at Stamford Bridge, a junior at Tottenham, on loan to Dulwich Hamlet and  IFK Hassleholm, then full time at QPR, Portsmouth, Aston Villa, Norwich City, Southampton, Liverpool, Portsmouth again, Tottenham, Stoke City 2011-19 (225 apps) and lastly Burnley. Total 599 apps 145 goals.

Crouchy is now retired to his £4.5 million home along with his lovely wife (model) and family, where they practise his "Robotic" dancing. He played 42 times for England scoring 22 goals. He also is the proud owner of a Leisure and Tourism GNVQ gained during his "educational commitment" at Tottenham.
