I see even Billericay Town have a Norweigan branch of supporters. I wonder how they go about chosing their teams. It's seem sthat they're having a competition to see who can support the most obscure team!

[Laz]

The Billericay fans have won then in that case!

 

Any sign of an Enfield or Enfield Town Norwegian fanbase?

[JKiF]

yep cant get more obscure than Billericay

Give us a chance! The club has only been going five years so I doubt many Norwegians have even heard about Enfield Town FC and the pioneering work of the UK’s first supporter-owned football club.

You're too modest D of Y.

 

I'm sure that the pioneering work of the UK's first supporter-owned football club is the primary topic of converation wherever football folk meet in the world whether it's over the smorgasborg and a few bottles of Carlsberg in Norway or the sheep's eyes and a glass or three of saki in South America.

 

The name of Enfield, and its proud cup tradition in particular, is writ large in football circles. The good folk at Brimsdown never seem to stop banging on about it.

Here are a few more compliments that have been received with reference to Enfield Town FC's pioneering work...

From Supporters Direct:–
"Congratulations on the wonderful progress you've made at Enfield Town in the last five years. You have won - and deserve to win - the support of the vast majority of fans of the old Enfield. Many people don't realise that you were the first group of supporters in the trust movement to set up your own football club in the way you did, and for that you have my - and the trust movement's - great admiration.
Some of the happiest football moments I've had in recent years have been in the company of Enfield Town supporters, and I hope that there will be the opportunity for more such moments in the future.

Brian Lomax, Chair of Supporters Direct"

From AFC Wimbledon:–
"We are delighted to hear that all of you at Enfield Town FC are celebrating your 5th anniversary. Enfield Town started almost exactly a year before we did. You were very helpful when we were trying to get going and an inspiration too, because you had shown us what could be done. We have very fond memories of those early days and send you our best wishes for a strong and healthy future on and off the pitch.
Good luck for this season in the Ryman League!

Kris Stewart, Chairman, on behalf of AFC Wimbledon's management and fans."

From FC United of Manchester:–
"On behalf of everyone at FC United, congratulations on your 5th anniversary. We feel we've travelled a million journeys in the twelve months we've been in existence so we're sure it's the even more for you. Teams like Enfield Town helped provide the template and inspiration behind what we are trying to achieve at FC United, so long may your success continue and hopefully we'll get to cross paths some time soon.

Jules Spencer, FC United Board"

Nuff said AFF!

Back to the Norwegians, someone tell them it's CITY!

[JKiF]

still stand by sheffield wednesday...

[AFF]

Yes D of Y. 'Nuff said'. You can see what I mean about the good people of Brimsdown forever banging on about it. Have you any more where they came from?

[Laz]

200 or so stand by Enfield (Town)!

The Owls Trust is indeed older than Enfield Town’s supporters trust. The point is ETFC became the first break-away club to be set up after Enfield fans became frustrated and disillusioned with the way the club was being managed. AFC Wimbledon and FCUnited of Manchester we’re set up along similar lines but Town led the way.

The Enfield FC v Enfield Town FC fixture takes place on Tuesday 20th February at Enfield FC's ‘home’ ground in Ware. If the St Albans City are without a game, come along and you’ll see that we’re not too far behind SACFC in terms of quality. Who knows? We may only be a division below you next season!

[YELLOW]

Those 200 or so should be out clearing the pitch of snow before Saturday's big match!!

[Laz]

It would be ironic if Ware were playing Brimsdown Rovers on the same date!

werent all football clubs in the begining owned by the supporters?

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

The problem with supporters running teams is they don't understand basic admin rules... just ask AFC Wimbledon

 

Nothing that Strasburg won't sort out
