All at Cray Wanderers, the football family and across the UK and around the world are saddened of the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II on Thursday 8th September.
Her Majesty served as monarch and figurehead for Great Britain and NI and the Commonwealth for 70 years and at the age of 96 showed incredible dignity, humour, charm and through many difficult times for the country was a major factor in lifting the country’s mood. The Queen was hugely respected, admired and loved around the world and was often known as the World’s Queen such was her popularity.

We send condolences to the Royal Family and wish them privacy and peace at this sad time. The Queen now passes the crown to her son Charles who becomes King and will lead the response over the next few days of mourning and the state funeral arrangements.
God bless you Your Majesty and thank you for an amazing life and dedication to service.
At this time there is uncertainty over sporting events taking place in the next few days and we will inform you if this impacts our level of football but at this time the nations thoughts are with the Queen and her family.
