SINGING star Olly Murs spent an evening watching the Coggeshall FC reserves team play last week.
The singer, originally from Witham, has started playing for the team, who were in a match against Mersea Island FC.
Reserve team manager for Coggeshall FC, Brian Marigold, said: "Olly is a friend of the football club and has come on board to train and play to keep himself fit for his performances on television."
He visited Mersea Island for the match at The Glebe and signed autographs for fans, who were not expecting to see him cheering on his team.
The match was held on Wednesday, April 27.
