We don't appear to have a thread on Newport Pagnell Town so here are some photographs and a match report from a 2012/13 United Counties League Premier Division fixture with Spalding United at Willen Road on Saturday 2 February 2013, Spalding United won 4-1. It was not until the 2019/20 campaign that the Club joined the SSML having played in the United Counties League since 1973/74, in 1972 they changed their name from Newport Pagnell Wanderers which coincided with a move to Willen Road having previously played at inadequate facilities on Bury Field Common and at the Youth Club in Wolverton Road:

I was comparing Newport Pagnell Town's run to the Sixth Round of the FA Vase to Leighton Town's the following 2017/18 season and the Swans had a far easier ride in comparison (see reports) with all home ties, against Broadfields United, London Colney, Peterborough Sports and Sunderland Ryhope CA, apart from a tricky First Round away draw at Daventry Town, winning 3-2. Leighton Town on the other hand had to play two additional Qualifying Round ties and travelled three times, to Burham Ramblers, Gorleston and Wolverhampton Sporting Community, as well as dispose of London Lions and Norwich CBS at Bell Close:
