St Panteleimon FC History

St. Panteleimon FC (nicknamed “The Saints”) was established within the Greek Orthodox Community in Harrow - NW London in 2015, to create a sporting and family based team. Our philosophy is the provision of a safe and supportive community setting, encouraging skills development, fitness, fair play and teamwork.

As of April 2018 St. Panteleimon FC achieved The FA Charter Standard Club Award, presented by the Middlesex FA, now England Football Accredited.

We strive to provide an inspirational and motivational environment where preparation, practice and hard work generate legitimate opportunities for success, while emphasising the importance and development of fundamentals and techniques necessary for positive experiences in football and in life, creating a consistently exciting and entertaining programme that generates a wave of support, pride, and tradition for our entire community to share.

The Team was blessed by His Eminence Archbishop Gregorios of Thyateira and Great Britain.

Our team competed in the Cypriot KOPA League for two seasons, winning the double in 2016, as Second Division champions and Cup winners. In the 2017-18 season the “Saints” entered the English Football Association system, joining the Middlesex County Football League Division 1, and were promoted as undefeated Champions!

The 2018-19 season proved even more successful with the Saints claiming the Middlesex County Football League Premier Division Double registering only one loss for the entire year, winning the Championship and the Cup! We were also honoured to participate for the first time in our early history in the FA Vase, reaching the first round proper, after succeeding in the first two qualifying rounds.

With four successive promotions, St Panteleimon FC have risen to Step 5 and play in the Cherry Red Combined Counties Premiership and look forward to the challenges ahead.

We are an independent business established over 30 years ago with a strong family heritage. The small team that started has grown to almost 300 colleagues, building reputation on customer service, reliability, and flexibility.

Knowledge and reliability We believe trust and efficiency are key to building and maintaining strong relationships with our clients.

As such, our priority is to deliver excellent customer service, whether by sharing technical know-how, accommodating deliveries, or offering advice on the right materials for a project. We make sure our team have extensive product knowledge and a full understanding of trades.

Locations and products We supply trade professionals and homeowners in West and South London, as well as the Home Counties with a network of 10 branches and extended delivery area.

Alan Lee Reporting Premier Division Leverstock Green 0 Colney Heath 1 Monday 2nd January 2023 Leverstock Green have suffered only two home defeats this season, and both of them have been to Colney Heath. With the visitors having had a managerial change between the two games, there were only a few players in common between the Colney side that won the Premier Division Cup tie in October, and the side that inflicted Leverstock’s first home league defeat of the season in this game. A week ago, against Tring Athletic it was the performance of Leverstock keeper Austin Byfield that won the point, but this time the boot was on the other foot as visiting keeper Liam Studley kept out the Green side with a number of superb saves.

There were few chances in the early part of the game, and Leverstock’s bad luck with centre-backs continued as Alvin Kyeremeh had to be helped off the pitch with an injury in the 19th minute, to be replaced by Bobby Armstrong. Colney Heath had the better of the opening ten minutes, but Leverstock were on top towards the end of the half. They were denied a goal in the last minute of the half by the first of Studley’s great saves. George Mitchell-Gears got on the end of an Ibrahim Nagheeb free kick with a downward header, which Studley got down to save at the base of his post.

Leverstock made a bright start to the second half, but they were forced into another change on 51 minutes when Elgeniy Daalberg replaced Mitchell-Gears. Controversially, the referee restarted play the instant that Daalberg had entered the pitch rather than allowing him to take up his position, and Colney Heath took advantage as a ball was played 60 yards forward to Alex Cathline, who made a powerful run at goal and struck a shot from outside the box which beat Byfield and put his side into a 1-0 lead.

Brad Robinson was sin-binned as a result of protests about the goal, reducing Leverstock to ten men for ten minutes. Once they were back up to eleven the Green side had a number of chances, including a cross from Rio Beach which went just over the angle on 66 minutes and a header from Armstrong which went just over the bar two minutes later. On 76 minutes Ibrahim Nagheeb was fouled just outside the box and stepped up to take the free kick himself. His effort was on target but tipped over the bar by a great save from Studley. A minute later Ryan Carruthers had an effort cleared off the line.

On 79 minutes Leverstock were again reduced to ten men, this time permanently as Luke Beckwith received a second yellow card. There was another free kick in a dangerous position on 84 minutes as Chris Blunden was brought down just outside the box. Blunden took the free kick and again it was on target, but Studley dived full length to turn it round the post. Colney Heath were then reduced to ten men as George Taban was sin binned.

Leverstock continued to push forward as the game threatened to boil over in the closing minutes, and they were perhaps denied a couple more chances as the referee blew for full time after less than two minutes stoppage time, in a half that saw seven substition’s and a couple of injury stoppages among others. However, it was a second straight game without a goal, and Fergus Moore’s side will need to find their scoring touch again quickly when they travel to Cockfosters for their next game on Saturday.

DUDLEY LATHAM MEMORIAL (PREMIER DIVISION) CUP Quarter Final (Sponsored by S & T Sales and Marketing) Leighton Town advanced into the semi-finals of the Dudley Latham Memorial (Premier Division) Cup after trailing at the break (goalkeeper Reece Lewis having scored) to defeat visiting Shefford Town & Campton 3-1 and set up a home semi-final date with Dunstable Town next month.

DIVISION ONE Just two games beat the weather in Division One, leaders Real Bedford FC continued to march on towards the title with a 3-1 home success against play-off hopefuls Northampton ON Chenecks while in the battle between two clubs just outside the play-off places Moulton FC climbed to seventh with a 5-0 win at sixth placed Eaton Socon, a result that would lead to the hosts management team stepping down some 24 hours later.

AND FINALLY The Non-League Show on Three Counties Radio (Herts, Beds & Bucks) has returned with a new day and time. It will air live between 12-2pm every Saturday. The show presented by Ollie Bayliss will reflect on the previous week’s big news and stories as well as promoting and reviewing matches later that afternoon.

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.
