Bloxwich United F.C. was a football club based in Bloxwich, England. The club was formed by a merger between Blakenall F.C. and Bloxwich Town F.C. in 2001[1] and took over the former's place in the Southern League Western Division. However, after 19 games of the 2001–02 season, the controlling Blakenall contingent amongst the joint ownership abruptly pulled out of the merger and resigned the club's place in the Southern League causing their record to be expunged.
