Storm Ciara has well and truly left its mark on non-leage Tadcaster Albion as the club is currently sat in metres of dirty river water and are facing potential closure.
The club, who are currently applying their trade in the Betvictor North West Division, has been around for over 125 years and are currently hoping that fund raising will help keep the club a float.
The persistent rain fall and flooding has ripped the club apart, damaging the roof and leaving the club house in dirty river sludge.
The Brewers will be hoping that a sum of £12,000 can be raised so that the immediate works can begin but a full sum of £42,000 will be required to get the club back to it’s former glory.
Chairman Andy Charlesworth said: “We have invested thousands of pounds in the club following previous floods.
“We just can’t keep doing this every year. We can’t get flood insurance and we are now facing the potential of closure of the club. For the Club to continue help in the form of donations or materials/services in kind will be needed.
“On behalf of the club I would like to thank everyone who has shown their support to our current plight.”
