This is a game we have been looking forward to since the summer when our new floodlights were installed and we are sure that you will enjoy the spectacle of seeing Hertingfordbury Park illuminated like never before. Welcome to our visitors from Buckinghamshire who have had a good start to the season despite losing their first league game of the season last Saturday at Ware. We, of course, had an even more disappointing weekend but a midweek fixture is an ideal way to refocus minds after a bad defeat. Ben is sure to re-jig the team this evening after such a heavy loss but he is also mindful that patience is a virtue in building a young new team and there will be no panic-buying or wholesale changes. The home crowd showed their loyalty and patience in backing the lads to the end on Saturday and that is something the club greatly appreciates. We look forward to rewarding that patience, hopefully starting this evening. Pete Hough Programme Editor Club Details Address: The Acre Cars Stadium Herngfordbury Park West Street Herord SG13 8EZ Tel: 01992 583716 founded 1908 Acting Chairman: Colin Hay Club Secretary: Marc Sinfield Manager: Ben Herd Press Officer: Peter Hough Programme Editor: As Press Officer Safety Officer: As Club Secretary website: www.herordtownfc.com Today’s Opponents Chalfont St Peter AFC History The club was formed in 1926 and played local junior football from its ground on Gold Hill Common. 1948 saw a move to the Great Western Combinaon and a year later the club moved to its present locaon, although the picturesque name of Mill Meadow belies its origins as a refuse p. As the club developed off the field thanks to the support of many volunteers so success began to arrive on the field and in 1952 the first silverware was won, the Berks & Bucks FA Intermediate Cup. Senior status followed and progress through the Parthenon League, London League and Spartan League followed. The early 1970’s were difficult for the club but a move into the Athenian league saw a change in fortunes. The 1980’s, now in the Isthmian League, brought some consistency in league performances and some successful campaigns in the FA Cup and FA Vase.The 1990’s was another difficult decade, culminang in a low point of two successive boom places.2001/02 saw a rebuild under Marn Dean with a good start to the season but a subsequent falling away saw them finish 14th. The lower echelons became the accustomed territory for Saints for several seasons unl Dean’s departure at the end of the 2003/04 season.Managing Chalfont to victory in the Berks & Bucks Under-18 Challenge Cup was a young Danny Edwards. His reward was to be handed the reins of the First Team for the new season. And so began a rollercoaster ride of success and near misses that connued unl just recently. A restructuring within the Isthmian league at the end of the 2005/06 season saw Saints moving to the Spartan South Midlands Premier League. 2006/07 saw a top half finish in their first season in the Spartan and a trophy for the cabinet, the Wycombe Senior Cup, secured with a 7-0 win over Downley Albion at the Wycombe Wanderers ground. 2007/08 was a hugely successful season. Danny Edwards was developing an excing squad and the style of play was both entertaining and successful. Good runs in both the FA Cup and FA Vase came together with a Final appearance in the Premier Division Cup. Topping them all was winning the Challenge Trophy with a 2-0 win over Brimsdown Rovers. A close three-horse race in the league saw Saints pipped at the post into runners-up spot. 2008/09 was about building on the standards set in the previous season. And it didn’t disappoint. Some top scalps in the FA Cup heralded a season of cup runs. The FA Vase was the crowning glory, with the Saints making it all the way to the semi-final and being heart breaking seconds away from winning the right to play at Wembley. Saints were in the hunt for the league tle all the way to the last week of the season but the fixture congeson caused by the cup successes began to tell and they couldn’t quite make it across the line, eventually finishing a brave third. Losses in the finals of the Challenge Trophy and the Wycombe Senior Cup took a lile bit of the shine off what was a brilliant season for the club. Expectaons were high going into season 2009/10 a er going close to promoon in the two previous seasons. A slow start and a nightmare run of losses in October saw the tle chase wobble and rapid exits from all cup compeons. But an incredible run of form with just one defeat in 23 took Saints to the top to the pile where they became the target for other teams’ top performances and it wasn’t unl they were overtaken by Aylesbury in the last two games that they had to sele for the runners- up spot again. At the start of 2010/11, the aim was clear: promoon was the number one target. Geng off to an incredible start in notching up seventeen straight wins, Saints grabbed top spot and refused to relinquish it for the enre season, never being less than four points clear at any stage. The focus was clear and any progress in the cups was quickly curtailed. Such was the dominance in the league, the champagne corks popped with five games to spare as the tle was secured. The curtain was brought down on the record breaking season and their five year stay in the Spartan League by winning the Challenge Trophy for an unprecedented league and cup double. For the 2011/12 season, life was expected to be a trial for Saints yet they made a bright start in their new environs and quickly acclimased. For long periods they were genuine contenders but a poor end to the season, combined with the loss of totemic striker Charlie Struon to the professional ranks, saw them fall away into the mid table. A strong run in the FA Cup illuminated the 2012/13 season. An impressive win at Carshalton Athlec earned a e against Conference side Bishop’s Storord.
