“Wanton vandalism like this where they have taken all our stock has knocked us on our knees.”
Crooks used a large crowbar to try to smash their way in through a front door before ripping a window off its hinges.
Four new security lights were also smashed. The thieves took alcohol plus footballs, kit bags and socks.
It happened sometime between Friday, December 22, and Thursday, December 28.
The club is appealing for donations on 07857 560233.
