NORTHWOOD FC Northwood United were elected to Division Two of the Harrow & District League for 1928-29, playing at the new Northwood Playing Fields, which was adjacent to Haste Hill golf course, at the end of The Drive, Northwood. In the team at that time were young players Joe Gill, Bob Bell and Tom Bell, who would be with the club many years later, even returning after the Second World War, and the latter also became club secretary. In their second year the club gained promotion, and twelve months later, further success saw them move up to the Premier Division of the Harrow & District League (later renamed Harrow, Wembley & District League). At that time the club gained the use of a pitch in Northwood Recreation Ground at an annual cost of £14. 14s. including pitch marking and dressing room. 1931-32 saw the commencement of Northwood United’s dominance of local junior football. Within five years of entering league football, United had become Premier Division champions, a feat they repeated for each of the next four years, followed by second and third places up to the War. The League Senior Challenge Cup was won three times during that period, and in 1938 the club won the Middlesex Junior Cup, having been losing finalists in 1935 and 1936. After the Second World War, with the disappearance of the Holy Trinity Northwood team, the club dropped the United suffix from their title, and were Harrow & Wembley champions in consecutive years, 1948 and 1949. After being a midtable side in the Premier Division throughout the ‘fifties, the club hit a slump in the early 'sixties, suffering a first-ever relegation in 1962, and they became something of a yo-yo side for a few years, but towards the end of the 1960s things improved. Northwood were elected into the Middlesex League in 1970, and they became runners-up at the end of their second season. The Woods won the Middlesex League Cup on three occasions and also the League championship in 1978, completing the Middlesex League double, and the club were subsequently elected to the Hellenic League. In the first season they were promoted to the top flight as Division One champions and Hellenic League Division One Cup winners. Northwood also lifted the Middlesex Intermediate Cup by beating Feltham 2-1 – the club’s first County Cup success for forty-one years. Floodlights were erected and senior status was granted in 1981. Due to large travelling costs, Northwood switched to play in the London Spartan League in 1984 and they were soon to become one of the competition's top clubs. After one League Cup win, a runners-up spot and two third places, the Woods completed a League and Cup double in 1992. Along with this success came considerable ground improvements, which allowed them to be promoted to the Isthmian League, Division Three. After five years at the higher level, following early success by winning the 1993 Associate Members Trophy, and several promotion challenges, Northwood made it to Division Two in 1997. Following three seasons in that division, the Woods earned further promotion when they gained the runners-up spot in 2000. They also captured the Associate Members Trophy for a second time and reached their first ever Middlesex Senior Cup final, where they went down 2-0 to GM Vauxhall Conference outfit Hayes. Another three years later and Northwood found themselves in the Premier Division, having won the Division One North championship in 2003. They also captured the Isthmian League Cup for the first time in 2002, beating Premier Division Hampton & Richmond Borough in the final, 3-2 after extra-time, and also reached the Middlesex Senior Cup final once again, this time beaten in extra-time by Hendon. September 2002 saw the Woods defeat Premier Division champions Gravesend & Northfleet 4-2 to lift the Isthmian Charity Shield. It proved a difficult first season in the Premier Division, but after an F.A. restructure of non-League football, Northwood remained in the division for a second season. Northwood faced a new challenge for the 2005-06 campaign, having been moved to the Southern League Premier Division, and although the first season in the new league was a struggle, the team avoided the drop on the final day. However, 2007 saw the Woods finish in 22nd place in the division, and relegation followed – the first time the club had faced demotion in senior football. It wasn't all doom and gloom, though, as Northwood lifted the Middlesex Senior Cup for the first time in their history by defeating Hayes, of the Conference South, on their own ground in the final. Having been moved back to the Isthmian League for the 2007-08 campaign, and after spending three years in Division One North, Northwood then found themselves competing in the Southern League Division One Central from 2010. The Woods won the Middlesex Senior Cup for the second time in their history in 2016, beating Enfield Town in the final. The club were moved back once more to the Isthmian League prior to the 2018-19 season. - 10 -

BLAST FROM THE PAST PHOTO REVIEW: BARKING FC 3SATURDAY 18 MARCH 2017 – ESSEX SENIOR LEAGUE

Paul Oshin fights to win possession in the Southend Manor penalty area.

Everyone can only watch on as this looping Barking effort hits the bar.

Ben O’Brien heads the ball back into danger.

The Isthmian League strongly supports the recent FA statement that there should be a zero-tolerance approach against racism and all forms of discrimination. Accordingly, any form of discriminatory abuse, whether it is based on race or ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, faith, age, ability or any other form of abuse will be reported to the Football Association by that Association.

Billy Rix heads the ball home to give Barking a second half lead.

Petrit Elbi capitalises on a square pass by James Peagram to knock the ball home and double Barking’s lead.

Joe Staunton’s audacious flick from Max Watters cross in injury time adds further gloss to the victory for Barking.

BARKING FC 1Velocity Sports Trophy Knockout Stage 1st Round – Tuesday 7 January 2020 – Report by Terry Gilbert Cheshunt progressed to the second knock-out stage of the Velocity Trophy by getting the better of Barking with two goals in five minutes after the Blues had taken the lead from the penalty spot. Justin Gardner used this game as an opportunity to look at some younger players with the youngest being 16 year old Joshua Roach who is currently on a work experience loan from West Ham United. With just three minutes gone the Barking defence was all at sea when a Cheshunt player breaks through but his cross thankfully finds no team mate and the danger goes away. The home side strive to get into the game and around the tenminute mark they force three corners with no success. On 17 good work from Michael Dixon forces a corner but Johnny Ashman’s flag kick only manages to find the side netting. Just a minute Barking though they had gone in front when good work by Sherri Artmeladze who then frees Dixon, who then crosses to Johnny Ashman who finds the net but the goal was ruled out for offside by the Assistant Referee’s flag. Ricky Tarbard had our best chance on 26 when his goal bound shot is turned away by Ambers keeper Harry Girling with a fine one handed save. Roach in the Barking goal has a scare on 32 when trying to make a routine save the ball rears up and hits him the chest and although the ball bounces away, he is able to recover with no damage done. However, in the end neither side manage to make the vital breakthrough and it is all square at the interval. After the interval both sides demonstrate lots of running, energy and industry but little in the way of chances and goalmouth action to show for their efforts. Then as there seems to be nothing happening three goals arrive in just five minutes: firstly, Artmeladze after delivering a cross goes down in the Cheshunt box and the Referee awards Barking a penalty and then after consultation with his assistant ratifies his decision. Michael Dixon steps up and as usual confidently beats Girling to put the Blues in front, the lead lasts just three minutes when a Cheshunt shot slams against the post and Ryan Moss is on hand to tap home and level the scores. The comeback is complete on 61 when Dartford loanee Norman Wabo fires home from the right-hand side and the Premier Division side are in front. In an effort to draw level Barking bring on Miles Buffong, Oluwatobi Popoola and Richmond Obioraejiasi for their club debuts but try as they might no equaliser arrived and with five minutes to go only a good save from Roach prevented a further goal.
