Today we visit Enfield Town FC in the Emirates FA Cup 1st Qualifying Round.
Enfield Town play one step above us in the Non-League pyramid, In the Bostik League Premier Division.
This will be a real test for us, as not only are we the underdogs, Enfield Town have yet to lose this season, and lie fourth in the league table with three wins and three draws.
The last three games have seen one win and two draws, while our last three games are best forgotten, although, in two of those games, Cambridge City raised their game against us, as they always do, and we didn’t respond, and we went down on penalties against a strong St. Neots side, when we made eight changes for the League Cup in midweek, but we did lead twice in the match.
Enfield Town play at the Queen Elizabeth Stadium, Donkey Lane, Enfield, Middlesex, EN1 3PL.
The stadium is right at the end of Donkey Lane.
The best route from Bedford is the A1.
If you are going by train, it takes about 1hr 45mins from Bedford, and involves Rail, Overground and Underground. The best station is Enfield Town.
For buses, I have copied a bit off the excellent theballissquare.co.uk
The QE Stadium is well served by buses so there should be no problem getting here by public transport. Please consider using public transport as your first choice and only come by car if necessary. From Enfield Town Station: Come out of the station and cross over Southbury Road. There are two bus stops, both of which you can use. The 317 bus will take you to the ground. Get off at Cambridge Gardens. Walk down Cambridge Gardens and this leads into Donkey Lane.
Admission is:
Adults £11 - Concession/U21’s £7 - U16’s £1
Well behaved dogs on a lead are welcome, especially if they are sporting a scarf. Don’t forget to bring poo bags if you bring your dog.
We will be playing in our 3rd kit of all yellow.
