Sutton & Epsom RFC
An amateur community rugby club
It is with great sadness that we have to report the passing of John Murray. Our thoughts are with Frankie and the whole family. The funeral will take place at 12.40pm on Monday 2nd November at North East Surrey Crematorium and afterwards at the Morden Brook pub.
Lloyd passed away on 13 October age 89. He was an imposing lock forward and Captain of the Club in the early sixties and gained an Oxford Blue at rugby and also water polo. He was a very useful man to have in the side! He had been suffering for a number of years so a blessed relief. Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
Tom passed away this weekend after a long battle with cancer. There are still many people at the club who played with or knew him. He went on a few Easter tours and the Centenary one to Canada, and some may have experienced his touchline stitching skills in the days before substitutes. He was a regular Magpie until shoulder surgery put a stop to golf. Our thoughts are with his family.

Hat Trick Hero Lennie Inspires Sutton Success
Bromley 31-40 Sutton & Epsom
Last season Sutton & Epsom opened their campaign on a gloriously sunny afternoon more suited to cricket than rugby. Therefore, it was not inappropriate that the physical combat of rugby played second fiddle to the more genteel backdrop of Hayes CC 2nd XI v Chislehurst CC 2nd XI. Sutton won 49-19 in a result skewed by the absence of many of the host’s 1st XV due to the lure of a golf weekend. At the end of the season Bromley took the plaudits with a thrilling 34-30 win at Rugby Lane that was a more accurate reflection of two clubs who ended up four points apart, in S&E’s favour, in the league table.
