League fixtures are out

| By Stephen King

Where do we start? Opening day of the league season is August 8th but some sides in our division have FA Cup games that day so not all fixtures will be played.  We have escaped that possibility and face a journey to Biggleswade Town for our first match.  We return home on the following Tuesday, … Continued

Early cup fixtures are out

FA Cup – preliminary round, August 22nd Our final place in last season’s league table gets us a bye into the preliminary round of the FA Cup.  We will meet the winners of August 8th’s extra-preliminary round game between Leverstock Green and Walthamstow.  Coincidentally we were drawn to meet either Leverstock or Ilford at the … Continued

I might have had similar thoughts myself. So, it was interesting when Kevin Kuhn suggested we look at the … Continued

Herts Cup winners

| By Stephen King

The success has been added to our “Honours Board” on … Continued
