CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 1140 WEYMOUTH – 1 [Phillips 69.] SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Fear 9.] Way back in July when the fixtures were announced, we naturally looked for all the seasidey trips first.

Daaahn With Margit?
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 498 SUTTON UNITED – 2 [Quinton. Akuamouah] MARGATE – 0 With only 3 points at home from a possible 24 so far, you could easily see why for us, spending a Saturday afternoon at GGL this season has been something of a chore. But, with a hard won point from the visit […]
Dull & Wet
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 457 SUTTON UNITED – 0 BISHOPS STORTFORD – 0 With the U’s participation in the FA Cup once again over far earlier that us and no doubt our bank manager would have liked, we’re back to league action with the visit of our old friends from Stortford.

Oggy Oggy…
FA CUP 3rd QUALIFYING ROUND REPLAY Att: 487 BROMLEY – 2 [OG 42. OG 45.] SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Fear 15.] Just in case you’re wondering where the third ‘Oggy’ went, we’ve already had it. In the first game. FFS. Now, if Saturday’s performance (the second half in particular) could be described as, […]
2-0 & We Fucked It Up
FA CUP 3rd QUALIFYING ROUND Att: 495 SUTTON UNITED – 2 [Scarborough 3. Martin 23.] BROMLEY – 2 [OG 43. Luckett 48.] Admittedly, when this draw was made, we weren’t that impressed. Having been spoiled with a trip to Eastbourne in the last round and a cracking cup tie on top of a […]
Club v Country
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 213 HAYES – 1 [Scott 87.] SUTTON UNITED – 0 A few weeks before this particular fixture, Chalmers asked me if I was interested in trying to get tickets for the England v Wales World Cup Qualifying clash at Old Trafford. I agreed in principle and checked our fixtures to see […]

We Havant A Clueville At Home…
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 467 SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Vansittart 63.] HAVANT & WATERLOOVILLE – 1 [Taylor 85.] When you suffer a mauling such as the one recieved at Grays on tuesday night, you’re obviously looking to get back on track straight away. Which is easier said than done when your home form is […]
Fat Man On A Balcony
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 358 GRAYS ATHLETIC – 5 [Cole 20. Carthy 44. Thurgood p70. Griffiths 85.88.] SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Watkins 24.] Having faced 2 Essex sides at home in consecutive Saturdays and got sod all from either game, you can probably guess at our attitude to this trip into our (least) favourite county. Grays […]
Same Shit, Different Season
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 513 SUTTON UNITED – 2 [Vansittart 39. Watkins 59.] REDBRIDGE – 3 [Murray 28. Poole 57. Lewis 86.] Last season, after a reasonable start, we met Redbridge (or Ford as they were known then) at home in a dreadful game. Twice coming from behind we still managed to chuck it […]
