RUCT | Celebrating Arthur Wharton!⭐
Yesterday we reflected on the impact left by Arthur Wharton, who is a special part of the Rotherham United story, when he made history standing between the goal posts for Rotherham Town in 1889.
At Rotherham United Football Club and Rotherham United Community Trust we have worked alongside The Arthur Wharton Foundation both in England and in Ghana to keep Arthur’s story alive and how it to this day still offers opportunity to the young people of Rotherham👉 ruct.co.uk/news/2025/10/ruct…
Happy Birthday, Arthur Wharton!
