Same Shit, Different Game
NATIONWIDE CONFERENCE Att: 2818 KIDDERMINSTER HARRIERS – 1 [Fluked It 51] SUTTON UNITED – 0 So after the shit sandwich dished up by the U’s on Wednesday night, we were looking for a 1000% improvement to simply prevent a bloody good hiding at Nationwide Conference leaders, Kidderminster.

Treasure Island It Ain’t!
FA TROPHY 3rd ROUND Att: 719 SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Winston 4] CANVEY ISLAND – 0 After the U’s recent disappointing Conference form, I think it’s fair to say we weren’t exactly chuffed to be paired with Ryman Premier side Canvey in the Trophy. Currently sitting in the top 6 of our former home and […]

A Feeling Of Déjà Vu?
NATIONWIDE CONFERENCE Att: 761 Sutton United – 1 [Newhouse 57] Kettering Town – 1 [Brown 54] I’ll admit it, I’m rather glad to see the back of Kettering.
