Neil Chappell

Neil Chappell – A box-to-box midfielder and popular character in NWC circles. ‘Chappie’ joined 1874 via a short spell at Glossop North End following his successful period at Maine Road where he holds the distinction of being their all-time leading goal scorer. We were certainly glad to have him back last season following a short ‘retirement’ from the game.
