While looking through some old programmes, I saw that a Lumley (no first name given) played three games in goal in the 1963/64 season for the Combination team.
Any relation to Joe? |  | | |  |

I've asked before, but received no reply, as to whether he is related to Robin Lumley.*
Robin was the goalkeeper for Chesham United at the time you mention & may be the'keeper that played in those Combination matches. He was also one of the best to have graced The Meadow!
*Sorry, that reads poorly & could be taken as having a dig at posters (unintended). I can't think of any reason why any of this board would know if they are related. [Post edited 28 Feb 2020 9:54]

I only put this on the message board as a matter of interest and on the off-chance that someone might know something. | | | |

Sorry stefan.
I didn't mean my post about people not knowing to be aimed at you. It was more about my own reaction when nobody knew the answer previously!
I just hope that they are related! | | | |

Wonder if it's worth asking the press team. They sometimes reply on twitter or there may be an email address you can contact them on. |  | | |

Cheers nix.
I hadn't regarded the question as important enough to have contacted the club previously.
However, my curiosity has now risen to the level that i have sent an e mail to the club posing the question! | | | |

Did you get a response? | | | |

Our Lumley was originally on Spurs books which was his route to being at our club. So possibly not through a family connection. |  | | |

Yes, that the PR department don't know the answer but that they will ask Joe if he is at the training ground when they are next there! | | | |

Cheers Danny.
Robin was a very good 'keeper for that level & definitely played better than Grobbelaar did when he played for "Chesh"!
Larry Pritchard was possibly the best "amateur" playing in the country in the late '60's/early '70's for Sutton & then for the club that I loathe! |
Keith Sanderson? albeit I think he may have been classified as a semi pro. |  |
