OPPOSITION

  • 2025/26 league position: 16th (Southern League Premier Central)
  • Last season: P42 W13 D10 L9. GD -14. 49 points.
  • Last season away: P21 W4 D8 L9. GD -9. 20 points.
  • Last five league matches (2025/26): D3 L2
  • Last five away league matches (2025/26): D2 L3
  • Last season, the Blues drew eight matches at home – only Needham Market (nine) drew more. Their eight away draws compared drastically to just two at home.
  • In the last five league games of last season, they were one of only two teams not to win a game (D3 L2). The other team was Sudbury, who finished bottom of the league and lost all of their last five games – they were also the only side who picked up less points than Bishop’s Stortford in the last five league games.
  • It’s a similar theme away from home at the end of last season; with a record of D2 L3, only relegated Barwell (L5 – zero points) picked up less points across the last five away league games of last season. Extending that to their last 10 away league matches, their record was D4 L6 – and, again, only Barwell picked up less points across this metric (D1 L9 – one point).
  • In fact, Bishop’s went 11 away league games without a win at the end of last season (their last win on the road being a 0-2 win at Sudbury on 10th January).
  • Across home and away matches last season, they finished with seven games without a win (D4 L3), with their last league victory coming at home to Alvechurch (2-0, 14th March). Prior to that, their last win was a 1-0 home success versus Halesowen on 28th February – meaning the Alvechurch win has been their only league win since the start of March (P11 W1 D4 L6).
  • This season, they currently sit 21st (of 22 teams) on one point, with Stamford (zero points) the only team below them.
  • Bishop’s began the season with a 0-0 draw at home to Banbury, before losses to Leiston (3-1 A), Halesowen (1-0 A) and, most recently, Alvechurch (0-3 H, last Saturday).
  • They and Stamford are the only sides in the league to have lost their last three matches, and the only teams to have scored just one goal this season – winger Tyrone Baker scoring that at Leiston.
  • Only Stratford (10) and Leamington (9) have conceded more goals than the Blues’ seven, and only Stratford (-7) have a worse goal difference than their -6.
  • Their results thus far this season mean they have gone – across this season and last – 11 league games without a win (D5 L6) and 13 away league games without a win (D5 L8).
