It is with sadness we record the passing of one of our clubs stalwarts, John Coe.

Like Dunn and McCreadie, the Coe name is synonomous with Stop Out.

John played through junior and senior ranks helping the club to reach National League where he played as a full back.

A man of few words... John epitomised everything about Stop Out with his tough uncompromising play even though he was normally the smallest guy on the park!

From 1968 when our records began we note that John played 70 games for the 1st team until his retirement.

John continued to support the club by coaching and playing in lower leagues for many years. John was 68.

Success continues for our talented youth players with the naming of the Team Wellibngton Youth squad.
