Heybridge Swifts were regular league opponents for us during the mid-1980s. And into the early 1990s on top of that too. Like us, they were new arrivals in Servowarm League Division Two North for the 1984-5 season. And, like us, the Swifts clocked up 75 points in that campaign; edging us on goal difference to finish third. In 1985-6, the Swifts finished third again. But we won the title and went up. It’s a form of bragging rights, yeah?

We’d be surprised if you didn’t find space at the ground.
Like a fair few other places, the town seems to lack a railway station.
