The Star Hotel on the High Street on the corner with Sun Lane (presently Pizza Express) was the venue on Thursday 22 November 1877 of a meeting of football interests in the town. Newmarket Town Football Club was formed thus making them one of the oldest clubs in the country.
Under the presidency of Mr BT Chennel, Mr FG Postans informed the meeting that subscriptions of nearly £25 had already been collected. Flags, posts and all articles necessary for the game were on order. Players were to be supplied with a suitable uniform at half price.
