Everyone was greatly saddened to hear the news of Les’s passing today.

Les played a hugely significant role in the development of our club and was a larger-than-life character who was popular not only with everyone at ETFC but also the opponents we have visited up and down the country.

As a director of the club for many years, Les’s commercial acumen meant he thrived in his role as sales director and was responsible for bringing numerous sponsors to the club as well as fulfilling the role of kit manager in our time at Goldsdown Road where he was a favourite with both players and management with whom he shared the dressing room.

Les was also always willing to step in to other roles and would regularly arrange coach travel or act as a boardroom host looking after our guests at home games, always creating a great first impression with his charming, friendly demeanour and array of bad jokes. Throughout his recent ill health, Les stayed connected to the club through his many friends and was always full of support and encouragement.

A true Town legend, all of us will miss him enormously and send our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.

Paul Reed, chairman

Haringey Borough (A) | Saturday 4th July 2026

We will, after almost three years, return to neighbours Haringey for the first of this season’s pre-season fixtures at Coles Park. Boro ended last season with a host of ex-Towners among their ranks, including Sami Bessadi, Herson Alves, and Jonathan Hippolyte.

Stotfold (A) | Saturday 21st July 2026

A new ground for us, we will travel north to face Stotfold in mid-July. Members of the Southern League Division One Central for the last three seasons, they saw off Northwood and Enfield 1893 to maintain their step 4 status last season.

Bishop’s Stortford (A) | Friday 31st July 2026

At the end of July, we will meet another familiar side in Bishop’s Stortford. Formerly regular opponents in the Isthmian Premier over the past decade, the Blues have installed a new 4G surface at their Woodside Park home – with Town among the first sides to grace their new pitch.

 Hats off to Christine and Ian Hamilton who sold over £500 worth of Enfield Town merchandise at this year’s Enfield Pageant of Motoring which took place Saturday and Sunday.

The annual event in Enfield playing fields opposite the Dave Bryant attracted hundreds of punters and despite the fearsome heat, Christine and Ian were on site from the early hours of each day to man the ETFC stand, aided by three or four fellow Town devotees.

Well done guys! COYT

Billy Holland has confirmed that he will be bringing in assistant manager Spencer Harrison and first-team coach Charlie Gregory, both of whom worked with him at Waltham Abbey.

“I’ve worked with Spencer for seven years,” said Town’s new boss. “He’s a very bubbly character and says things as he sees them.”

“Charlie has been with me for three seasons, loves to put the work in on the training pitch and wants the same back from the players.”

Welcome both!

The FA have confirmed the club allocations within the National League System for 2026-27.

We have been placed back into the Isthmian League Premier Division, rejoining a host of familiar faces as well as some new clubs.

Next season will see us reacquaint ourselves with the likes of Dartford, who Town last faced in league action back in 2008, during our days in the Isthmian North together; Brentwood, who were also regular Isthmian North opponents for the Towners; Burgess Hill Town; and Leatherhead, who return to the Isthmian Premier after four years away.

We will again cross paths with St Albans City, Aveley, Welling United, and Eastbourne Borough, who joined us in the National League South over the last two seasons. The ‘A10 Clasico’ also returns, with neighbours Cheshunt among next season’s fixture list.

While we have encountered some sides such as Maldon & Tiptree and Ramsgate on previous FA Trophy runs, this will be our first season as league opponents. They join Stanway Rovers, Three Bridges, and phoenix club AFC Whyteleafe who we will meet this season for the very first time.

Huge congratulations to our under-18s who won their league title on Thursday with a 2-1 win over Hinton Revolution Stars in what was a straight shootout between the teams placed first and second in front of more than 300 fans at the DB.

Coached by Town’s esteemed head groundsman, Neil Lutwyche, the youth team took an early lead through Samuel Harris, were pegged back and then clinched victory courtesy of Sean Robinson’s penalty to win the green division of the Watford Friendly League and spark huge celebrations.

 “This surpasses anything that words can describe,” said Neil who laid out the dressing room beforehand to look as professional as possible.

“It’s been a tough season. We have fought really hard and the attitude, desire and determination – coupled with the willingness to learn – is what really paid off. I couldn’t be more proud of them.”

Full-back Nino Adom-Malaki has completed a move to National League side Aldershot Town.
