PRE SEASON FRIENDLY Att: N/A DULWICH HAMLET – 1 [Haughton 61] SUTTON UNITED – 2 [Watson 16. Bolt 88p] The U’s return to the scene of their Surrey Cup semi-triumph from last season for what we expect to be probably our toughest test of the pre-season so far. And like that drizzly night a couple […]
Sutton Top Up Their Tan(ners)
PRE SEASON FRIENDLY Att: N/A LEATHERHEAD – 2 [Ruggles 51. Charles-Smith 85] SUTTON UNITED – 3 [Collins 27. Fowler 33.63p] Next up for the U’s Surrey based pre-season bandwagon?

‘Leafe Fall
PRE SEASON FRIENDLY Att: N/A WHYTELEAFE – 0 SUTTON UNITED – 2 [Palmer 2. Bailey 15] Along with the Molesey game, another almost-permanent-fixture of a Sutton United pre-season programme is a trip to the pleasant, leafy surroundings of Whyteleafe’s Chruch Lane ground.

Weiners & Flat Roofs
PRE SEASON FRIENDLY Att: 302 EASTBOURNE BOROUGH – 0 SUTTON UNITED – 2 [Corbett 77. Gray 86] Aaaah! At long last. A trip to the seaside for some football. Basically an excuse to get completely bollocksed and get up to all sorts of mischief. If we’re lucky. With us not having near a beach in […]

Well Done, You Won One…
PRE-SEASON FRIENDLY Att: N/A BOBBINS – 3 [Webb 50.60. Williams 61] SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Hanlan 45] So to our penultimate fixture of what has proved to be a slightly….ahem!……’disappointing’ pre-season program. A meeting with the seemingly revitalised scummy tossers from up the road. Oh goody. With the U’s having managed to field a bare […]
