Binfield have also confirmed the management team for the new season:

  • John Polston – Manager

FA Youth Cup

Binfield couldn’t have been handed a trickier test in the FA Youth Cup than reigning Allied Counties Premier Champions Maidenhead United. You can see the full FA Youth Cup draw and who the Moles will face if they get through here.

‘Third time lucky’

Speaking to FiB, assistant boss Poole said: “We feel this year we can really put together a good squad and compete well in the league for the third year running.

“The last two seasons we have fallen just short of the league title, so this year we are aiming for third time lucky!”
