Eddie Hapgood

A few years ago the Easton Cowboys helped sponsor a plaque to commemorate the Arsenal and England footballer, Eddie Hapgood who was born in Barton Hill. The plaque which was designed by Mike Baker of Living Easton (and which carries the Cowboys name as a major sponsor) has been moved due to building work and will be unveiled again on *Friday 21st August 2009 at the rear of the Sovereign Housing block on Barrow Road, Barton Hill at 4.00pm*. It would be great if a few Cowboys (especially you gooners) could make it down to celebrate this local working class hero.
