LIFE PRESIDENT
..............
Mr NIGEL GREENWOOD

Gregson Lane JFC honoured a former player, Nigel Greenwood, by making him Life President of the club. In his youth Nigel played for one of the first ever Gregson Lane teams and later went on to become a professional footballer. Nigel played for a number of clubs but is probably most famous for his time as a striker for Preston North End.

Everyone at the club is delighted that Nigel has accepted this honour of Life President. We all look forward to his input and involvment with the club.
