A brilliant team performance at the Welfare sees us book our place in the Cup Final on May 9th. 🏆

Clean sheet ✅
Four goals ✅

A huge thank you to everyone who came down to support us — especially battling through some awful second-half conditions. Your support never goes unnoticed. 👏

Special mention to our volunteers:
Mr & Mrs Potts on the gate, and Gail supporting the ever-reliable Claire in the snack bar. Without volunteers, we are nothing. 💙

🔵 All done at Keyworth… and we WIN! 🟣🔥

There’s a famous quote from a certain local gaffer:
“I hope anybody’s not stupid enough to write us off.”

Well… we headed to Platt Lane, reminded Keyworth of the gap, and smashed our way to a 6–2 victory 😤🟣

Goalscorers:

🟣 Milky ⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️ (FOUR-goal hero!)
🟣 Potts ⚽️
🟣 Robbo ⚽️

A massive performance that books our place in the League Cup Semi-Finals 🔥🏆🟣

Cotgrave. Claret & Blue. And marching on.

💔Cotgrave FC Family Statement💔

We at Cotgrave FC are absolutely devastated to share some heartbreaking news. Our wonderful ball-playing defender Samuel Dunn and his partner Melissa recently suffered the unimaginable loss of their child due to a premature birth.

Our thoughts, love, and deepest condolences go out to Samuel and Melissa during this incredibly difficult time. As part of our football family, we want them to know they are not alone — the entire Cotgrave community stands with them.

In an incredible show of support, teammate and all-round Cotgrave hero Lee Potts has decided to take on Movember, raising money for a charity close to Samuel and Melissa’s hearts — one that helps families affected by premature birth and baby loss.

We’ll be sharing details soon on how you can donate, get involved, and show your support. Every contribution, big or small, will make a difference and help honour the memory of their little one.

Let’s rally together as a community — for Samuel, for Melissa, and for every family who’s had to face such heartbreak.

🔵🟣 Why Are We Doing This? 🟣🔵

Our facilities at Cotgrave Welfare need urgent investment and upgrades. After a recent ground grading assessment, it's clear we must improve key areas including the pitch, changing rooms, and supporter areas.

To make this happen, we need the backing of our club members and local community. These upgrades will benefit everyone, players, coaches, families, and fans as more of our teams progress into 11-a-side football.

That’s why we’re hosting our first-ever Cotgrave FC Charity Ball a night to celebrate, raise funds, and support the future of our club. 🖤🎉

🎟️ Full event details and ticket info are on the flyer, get involved, spread the word, and help us build something special for Cotgrave FC!
