Club career

Brentford

Peplow began his career as an inside forward at Athenian League side Southall, catching the attention of Division Three South neighbours Brentford during the 1954/55 season.[1] He signed for the Bees at the end of the season and made his professional debut almost a year later in a 1-0 win over Swindon Town on 21 April 1956,[2] finishing the 1955/56 season with three appearances and one goal.[3] Utilised mainly as a wing half, Peplow made something of a breakthrough into the first team during the 1956/57 season, making 17 appearances, but failing to score.[3] Peplow's appearance count reduced season-by-season until 1960/61, when he made 18 appearances and scored three goals.[3] He was released in June 1961, having made 66 appearances and scored five goals in six years at Griffin Park.[1]

Non-league football

After his release from Brentford, Peplow dropped back into non-league football and had spells with Southern League sides Folkestone Town and Ashford Town (Kent).[1]

Representative career

While a schoolboy, Peplow represented the Middlesex and London schoolboy sides.[1]
