Our Opponents

Hanwell Town FC was founded in 1920 by a group of Geordies working in the area, who adopted the black and white stripes of Newcastle United as their colours. In 2006 they won promotion to the Southern League for the first time, but returned to the Spartan South Midlands League until 2014 when they joined the Southern League Division One Central for the start of last season.

They are known as Geordies and have recently appointed Ray Duffy as manager – his third time at the club helm. Their website is here, and their Twitter feed here. Their club colours are black and white striped shirts and black shorts.
