CROYDON EBA met on Sunday, September 26, for the first time since the pandemic. Chairman Barry Penny opened the meeting with a heartfelt: “Am I glad to see you lot. Let’s have a good rest of year, and a good year next year.”
There were 14 members and guests – not quite as many as would attend before the pandemic, but an encouraging start. And it was nice that four Brighton EBA members made the trip up – Harry Scott, Jimmy Butler, Rob Benson and Leigh Crompton (whose pieces on past fighters are a regular feature of Brighton’s newsletters). Rob applied to become member of Croydon, and was of course welcomed.
