Second in Reserves Division One for second successive season. Adam Bolle set Club record scoring in ten successive games. Neil Conner appointed as Manager for the 2014/15 season. New 100-standing covered stand completed on Park View side in March 2014.

2014-15 A difficult season ended with a highly successful celebration of the 40th anniversary of the FA Vase win with an international friendly against ASD Acquaviva at Lowfield on 19th April 2015. First Team avoided relegation despite many setbacks through the season, finishing nineteenth, and the Reserves ended up in tenth place having also suffered setbacks during the season.

2015-16 Unquestionably the Club’s most successful season since the Vase win in 1975. Third in the SSMFL, the best League campaign since 1970/71, top of the table for 8 weeks, a Club record-breaking run of four tie wins and seven games in the FA Cup in reaching the 3rd Qualifying Round for only the second time, (four wins, two draws and a replay defeat) and winners of the SSMFL Premier Division Cup. Crowd of over 400 v Brentwood in the FA Cup the largest seen at Lowfield since 1975. Three times winners of the Team of the Month award. Reserves won the Club’s first ever Reserves League title, were beaten finalists in the Challenge Trophy and won the SSMFL Reserves section play-off. Infrastructure improvements including an additional 50-seater stand and two turnstiles, earned the Club an ‘E' ground grading, suitable for Step 4 football.

2016-17 Paul Halsey appointed as Manager in May 2016 after Gavin Kelsey and the bulk of the First team left the Club. A rebuilt side acquitted itself well with a final placing of seventh, a Club record of 93 goals in SSMFL Premier Division football, and retention of the SSMFL Premier Division Cup with a 1-0 win against Wembley at Oxhey Jets. Reserves made a fourth appearance in five seasons in the Challenge Trophy but were beaten 3-0 by a strong Hertford side. Tom Cowell equalled a modern-day Club League scoring record with five of the seven goals scored against St. Margaretsbury. All the ground infrastructure work was finally completed during the course of the season. Bill Moye, Manager of the Vase winning side passed away in March 2017.

2017-18 Manager Paul Halsey walked out in January 2017, and after a short spell of interim management, Simon Riddle took over and was appointed for 2018/19. A final place of twelfth in the table was a relief after much player turbulence over 2 or 3 months. After the season ended, the Club learned it had been moved laterally to the Essex Senior League, thus ending a 34-year association with the (Spartan) South Midlands League. A full appeal hearing at the FA failed to have the decision reversed. The Reserves ended the season 3rd in the Development Division table, but after much consideration, an application was made for the Reserves to join the Herts. Senior County League for 2018/19. A very successful Under-18 squad formed the backbone of the First Team for the final few games of the season. Former Club Treasurer and stalwart supporter, Bob Parker, passed away at the age of 93 in May 2018.

2018-19 An historic season for the Club as the First Team took its place in the 20-club Essex Senior League, and the Reserves once again joined the Herts. Senior County League, this time in an 18-club Division One. Ninth place for the First Team and fourth for the Reserves reflected what was considered to be a satisfactory season for both teams. Having reached the semi-finals of the Peter Butcher Memorial Trophy the First Team lost 2-1 to a very strong Barkingside Reserves side, but the Final was not played due to issues that occurred in the other semi-final. Stalwart of the successful side of the 80s and early 90s with 300 appearances, John Walton, passed away at the age of 64.

2019-20 Thanks to Covid-19 the season was declared null and void in late March, with the Lilywhites in seventh place in the table, and the Reserves fifth at Step 7. One of the FA Vase Final stars, Les Picking, passed away in March 2020. The First Team also lost out on a chance to make the Challenge Trophy semi-finals when their thrice-postponed quarter final tie became a victim of the pandemic.

2020-21 Another season affected by Covid-19 with two lockdowns. Only thirteen League and eight cup games played, four of those in the Len Cordell Memorial Cup/Plate, the Lilywhites winning the latter 3-0 in the Final against Woodford Town. New, young Reserves side did well in what was a very short season for them. A new pitch rail was constructed around three sides of the pitch to upgrade the ground even further. Former Assistant Manager and general manager Jimmy Briggs passed away in early 2021 2021-22 Roger Merton stepped down as Chairman after 26 years in the role, and he was replaced by Stuart Varney. After a poor Covid-19 affected start to the season, the First Team picked up in the second half and finished in 15th place. Having reached the semi-finals of the Errington Challenge Trophy they were beaten 3-0 by a very good Enfield side. A young Reserves squad also acquitted themselves well in the second half of the season and ended the campaign in 13th place. A sad season for the Lilywhites as former Club stalwart Richard Lorimer and former First Team Manager Tommy Barnett both passed away.

Following the season end the Club was informed it was being moved back to the Spartan South Midlands League for the 2022/23 campaign following two full and two truncated seasons in the Essex Senior League.

Alan Lee Reporting St Marys Cup Quarter Final Leverstock Green 3 Chipperfield Corinthians 0 Tuesday 21st February 2023 It’s four league games without a win for Leverstock Green, who took an early lead in Saturday’s match at Ardley United but fell to a 3-1 defeat after a disappointing second half display.

It was a match played on a difficult bobbly surface, and Leverstock were playing up the slope in the first half. They got off to a great start and could have scored with only a minute played as a run from Richard Ennin set up John Shamalo with a chance, but his shot was saved. In the 6th minute Ryan Carruthers played a pass forward which home keeper Ben Hoy came out of his area to meet. Hoy attempted to head the ball away, but only headed it down to the feet of Chris Blunden, who made no mistake in slotting the ball into the empty net to put the Green 1-0 up.

However, the home side levelled in the 15th minute. Conal Rogan sent over a low cross from the byeline which should have been cleared, but two Leverstock defenders left it to each other to clear, and Mason Courtney needed no second invitation to nip in-between them and drill home a shot past Austin Byfield for the equaliser.

Ardley could have had a second a minute later but were denied by a goal line clearance from a corner.

Leverstock went close again in the 22nd minute when Ennin and Blunden combined to set up Rio Beach, but he couldn’t get his boot on it. A corner from Carruthers in the 31st minute found Ennin in space at the far post, but he volleyed over the bar. There was another big chance in first half stoppage time as Shamalo ran in to meet a Carruthers free kick but put his shot just wide of the post.

The teams went in with the scores level after an evenly contested half. A change at half time saw Luke Beckwith replace the injured Shamalo. With the slope in their favour Leverstock would have had hopes of going on to win the game, but they made no headway early on. In the 56th minute Ardley played a free kick into the Green six-yard box. Again, the ball could have been cleared, but wasn’t and one of Ardley’s two players called Lewis Gabbidon pounced to shoot his side into a 2-1 lead.

Leverstock continued to labour, pushing forward without creating anything and rarely getting the rub of the green from any deflections inside the Ardley box. There was a glimmer of hope when Alvin Kyeremeh got his head to another Carruthers free kick in the 66th minute, but Hoy gathered the ball.

A third Ardley goal in the 75th minute just about sealed the game for them. Leverstock conceded possession in their own half and seconds later a cross was coming in for Anaclet Odhiambo to finish from close range.

Leverstock finished the game with ten men as Ennin was sin-binned in the 87th minute, just before a header from Kyeremeh brought a great save out of Hoy to tip the ball over the bar. A Leverstock comeback never looked likely, though, their second half performance having put them out of contention.

Alan Lee Reporting Premier Division Ardley United 3 Leverstock Green 1 Saturday 25th February 2023 It’s four league games without a win for Leverstock Green, who took an early lead in Saturday’s match at Ardley United but fell to a 3-1 defeat after a disappointing second half display.

It was a match played on a difficult bobbly surface, and Leverstock were playing up the slope in the first half. They got off to a great start and could have scored with only a minute played as a run from Richard Ennin set up John Shamalo with a chance, but his shot was saved. In the 6th minute Ryan Carruthers played a pass forward which home keeper Ben Hoy came out of his area to meet. Hoy attempted to head the ball away, but only headed it down to the feet of Chris Blunden, who made no mistake in slotting the ball into the empty net to put the Green 1-0 up.

However, the home side levelled in the 15th minute. Conal Rogan sent over a low cross from the bye-line which should have been cleared, but two Leverstock defenders left it to each other to clear, and Mason Courtney needed no second invitation to nip in-between them and drill home a shot past Austin Byfield for the equaliser.

Ardley could have had a second a minute later but were denied by a goal line clearance from a corner.

Leverstock went close again in the 22nd minute when Ennin and Blunden combined to set up Rio Beach, but he couldn’t get his boot on it. A corner from Carruthers in the 31st minute found Ennin in space at the far post, but he volleyed over the bar. There was another big chance in first half stoppage time as Shamalo ran in to meet a Carruthers free kick but put his shot just wide of the post.

The teams went in with the scores level after an evenly contested half. A change at half time saw Luke Beckwith replace the injured Shamalo. With the slope in their favour Leverstock would have had hopes of going on to win the game, but they made no headway early on. In the 56th minute Ardley played a free kick into the Green six-yard box. Again, the ball could have been cleared, but wasn’t and one of Ardley’s two players called Lewis Gabbidon pounced to shoot his side into a 2-1 lead.

Leverstock continued to labour, pushing forward without creating anything and rarely getting the rub of the green from any deflections inside the Ardley box. There was a glimmer of hope when Alvin Kyeremeh got his head to another Carruthers free kick in the 66th minute, but Hoy gathered the ball.

A third Ardley goal in the 75th minute just about sealed the game for them. Leverstock conceded possession in their own half and seconds later a cross was coming in for Anaclet Odhiambo to finish from close range.

Leverstock finished the game with ten men as Ennin was sin-binned in the 87th minute, just before a header from Kyeremeh brought a great save out of Hoy to tip the ball over the bar. A Leverstock comeback never looked likely, though, their second half performance having put them out of contention.

Alan Lee Reporting Premier Division Potton United 2 Leverstock Green 1 Saturday 28th February 2023 Leverstock Green’s current struggles continued as they fell to a third straight away defeat in Tuesday night’s SSML Premier Division game at Potton United. A poor start to the game gave them an uphill task to get anything out of the game.

Leverstock were boosted by the return to the side of Dan Weeks, Ibrahim Nagheeb and RaduMihai Stefanoaica, but it was Potton who got off to a very fast start which left the Green side chasing shadows in the early part of the game. In the third minute Austin Byfield pulled off a good save to keep out a header from Steve Gentle, however in the 12th minute a cross into the six-yard box was not cleared and Tommy Blennerhassett was able to blast home from close range.

Worse was to follow three minutes later when Blennerhassett was through on goal and slotted the ball under Byfield to double Potton’s lead before Leverstock had even got going.

In the 24th minute, however, Chris Blunden found space on the right side of the box and lofted in a cross which Stefanoaica headed home to put Leverstock back in the game at 2-1.

The scores could have been levelled in the 29th minute when Blunden played a great pass to put Stefanoaica through on goal, but keeper Craig Foxall saved his shot. Stefanoaica was in again in the 39th minute from another precise pass from Nagheeb, but his shot drifted wide of the target.

The second half was evenly-contested, but for all their possession Leverstock created little. In the 64th minute Weeks got on the end of a Nagheeb corner, but headed wide. There were plenty of other set-pieces, but too many of them were either overhit or easily claimed by Foxall.

At the other end Byfield made a couple of good saves to keep his side in the game, but Potton were able to hang on to their win, with Leverstock becoming increasingly frustrated by the home side’s time wasting tactics.

Leverstock Green (1) 1 (Stefanoaica 24) 1. Austin Byfield, 2. Adrian Pitfield, 3. Rio Beach, 4. Dan Weeks, 18. Bobby Armstrong (14. Alvin Kyeremeh 57 mins), 6. Ryan Carruthers (12. Elgeniy Daalberg 72 mins), 7. Ethan Mooney, 8.

VICE PRESIDENTS CLUB 2022-23 Leverstock Green Football Club would like to thank the Vice Presidents for their help and assistance pledged for last season.

Colin Bull, Peter Dennis, Jim Doble, Peter Frasier, Roger Stokes As in previous seasons the donations made by our Vice Presidents have assisted us in providing many improvements.

Would you like to join, £25 will secure your place.

Step 5 and Step 6 Promotion and Relegation Changes have been made to the promotion and relegation guidelines given in the summer for Step 5 of the FA’s National League System. This is due to vacancies that have arisen in the NLS for a variety of reasons.

At Step 4, the 8 Clubs finishing 4th bottom and 2 clubs ending 3rd bottom with the highest PPG now do not have to take part in the Inter-Step Play-Offs.

This leaves 6 eligible Step 4 Clubs for the Play-Offs and 16 eligible 2nd placed Clubs at Step 5. As a result, the Clubs finishing in 2nd position at Step 5 are ranked on PPG with the 10 highest being automatically promoted.

The 6 remaining Step 4 Clubs and 6 remaining Step 5 Clubs are placed into geographical groupings and paired by PPG as per the Play-Off Criteria 12 Clubs finishing in the bottom two across Step 5 will now be reprieved from relegation ranked on PPG. It has to be noted that the above situation is the current position and could change if the Committee feels there is a valid reason in the best interest of the NLS.
