FA Cup Preview
Southall v Enfield |
Although this is the 120th
recorded meeting between the two sides since the first match in
1905 this is only the third time that the two clubs have been
drawn together in the FA Cup the last time being in the 1968-69
season when Enfield won 6-2 in the Preliminary Round.
After having gained promotion last season from the Ryman League
Division Two Enfield now play one step above us in the Southern
League Division One East. Their
results this season and the
current league table can be found by
following the highlighted links.
Southall supporters will remember Enfield as one of the most
successful non league clubs in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. More
information about Enfield can be found at this
web site..
On a pessimistic note Enfield are
undefeated in the last 23 meetings between the two sides!

BATEMAN GLAD TO SEE THE
BACK OF SOUTHALL |
Southern League Premier Division club
Chesham United have given groundshare tenants Southall
the boot and the Combined Counties League outfit will
now play at Nationwide South newcomers Yeading’s Warren.
Chesham boss Steve Bateman is delighted to see them go
although he accepts his cash-strapped club will miss the
revenue.
He said: "Our pitch could not take the wear and tear. I
believe the reason we didn't get any top class
opposition in pre-season was that clubs like Spurs,
Watford and Wycombe weren't impressed by our pitch when
they came here before.”
|
The above article is inaccurate
as Southall Football Club was not 'given the boot' by Chesham
United FC.
Southall Football Club chose not to extend the ground share
agreement.
July 23rd
The fixtures for the coming season can be

One of the League. Bedfont G reen have been promoted from
Division One.
There are three name changes for this season:
| Godalming Town |

Godalming & Guildford |
| Guildford United |
formerly |
AFC Guildford |

learned of the death of former player Paul Sweales from cancer
at the age of 40.
Paul was a product of the Southall youth system and made his
debut for the First Team at the age of 16. Supporters will
remember him as an integral part of the Southall side that
reached the Final of the FA Vase in the 1985 -1986 season.
Southall Football Club conveys its sincere condolences to the
family of Paul Sweales.
