Lonsdale And Pullen


It well known that Hereford United chairman Andy Lonsdale and his new right hand man Simon Pullen have known each others for some years.

Both have links with Feltham FC.

Here's part of an article from April 2004 which appeared in the Richmond and Twickenham Times

SKY One's Dream Team have helped local youngsters to improve their footballing skills during the Easter school holidays as part of a community scheme run by Feltham FC.
The non league club started its Football in the Community scheme four months ago and is currently working in partnership with 23 schools throughout the Hounslow and Richmond boroughs to provide curriculum coaching sessions both in and out of lesson time.
Simon Pullen, Feltham FC's community officer, saw that the Easter break provided an excellent opportunity to expand the scheme and local children were offered the chance to attend two week long sessions. More than 200 children attended the first week, with over 60 attending in the second week. As well as working on their football techniques the children were given the chance to attend training sessions at Chelsea FC's Stamford Bridge ground.
Local sponsor, Andy Lonsdale from Seagrave Waste Recycling, said: "It's good to see something for the children in the local area as there's nothing for them to do otherwise. And it's good to see that the boys and girls are all enjoying it."
