  • The History of Sutton & Epsom
    THE HISTORY OF SUTTON & EPSOM RFC Founded in 1881 Club History Jeff Hume - 12/01/2004 (updated 01/02/2011) Picture this. It's the early 1870's and our British Empire is at its height. Queen Victoria has at long last returned from her mourning at Balmoral. Sutton is no longer a small thinly spread village straddling the London - Brighton turnpike road. Since Thomas Alcock became the lord of the manor, he has proved to be a shrewd property developer. Sutton's population, having leapfrogged Carshalton in the 1850's, has doubled to 6,600 in the last decade. The town is now served not only by the Croydon - Epsom railway but by new lines to Epsom Downs and Mitcham Junction. The economy is booming and it is a time of great social change. Parliament has committed England to compulsory education. The weekend now starts at Saturday lunchtime, generating an enormous public demand to be amused on Saturday afternoons. Public hangings have only just been stopped, as have deportations of convicts to Australia. William Webb-Ellis is on his last legs. Rugby Football is a game played with 20 a side and without the distraction of having a referee. It is at this point that a few intrepid souls, such as Arthur Jackson, the Burrows brothers and James Spencer introduced the sport to Sutton, forming a Club which used the Cock Hotel as their changing room and played on a ground in Western Road. Alcock's 1873 Football Annual records that in their first season, 1871/2, the Club boasted 55 members and played 21 matches, winning slighty more than they lost of these in terms of goals (i.e.

    s/J RMA SPOKTS SPORTS PHILATELISTS INTERNATIONAL PHILATELY Number 5 May - June 1979 Volume 17 THE IRISH RUGBY FOOTBALL UNION by B G Vincent On 9 September, 1974, the Irish Post Office issued two stamps to mark the centenary of the foundation of the Irish Rugby Football Union. The design, which is common to both stamps (3l'2P and 12P) was taken from an Irish Press photograph. Today it is accepted that Rugby Football had its origins at Rugby School. England, in 1823 when William Webb Ellis ran with the ball in hand, thus some­ what extending the rules of the game of football as played at that time. The Rugby code established itself quickly in England and it was being played at Cambridge University by 1839. A Rugby Football club was formed at Guy's Hospital in 1843 and soon the game had spread throughout the British Isles. The Rugby Football Union (English) was formed in 1871 and during that year the first Rugby Test Match was played _ England versus Scotland. And where does Ireland fit into this picture? Well, according to the Irish, right from the beginning. The Irish Post Office publicity brochure for this issue states, and I quote: " William Webb Ellis, who was the son of an Irish emigrant, and he himself may have been bore in Ireland." The authorative book, "Centenary History of the Rugby Football Union," has established Ellis's birthplace as Manchester, but continues to state: "Irishmen are sometimes wont to claim that William Webb Ellis was born at Tipperary " The Irish also claim to have founded the first Rugby Football Club in the world at Trinity College, Dublin, in 1854, but this cuts across the claim of the English who maintain that Guy's Hospital Club was formed in 1843- Trintity College -was certainly formed before any clubs in Scotland or Wales.
