With matches only taking place in the Premier Division of the Middlesex County League this week, my weekly round-up of the league is a bit shorter, for what was the final action of the league in 2025. On Wednesday evening, there was a midweek fixture in the Premier Division, at the West Ham Memorial Ground, as Stonewall faced Camden & Islington United. Camden & Islington won that game 3-0, and you can read my match report from West Ham Memorial Ground, here: https://nonleagueandacademyfootballwriter.co.uk/2025/12/17/stonewall-fc-0-3-camden-islington-united-fc-my-match-report-from-west-ham-memorial-ground/

On to Saturday afternoon in the Premier Division, and there was a very interesting match between two title contenders, in Camden United and Eagles Land Cricklewood, at Potters Bar Town FC. Leon Louis’s Camden United side would win that fixture 3-0, to move up to second place in the league table. That was a very important win for the north London club, as they returned to winning ways in style. A brace of goals from Harrow United’s top goalscorer this season, Raphael Garrett, helped Harrow United to record a good point against Hayes & Hillingdon, as that game finished 2-2.

In Osterley, there was a good and important win for PFC Victoria London Reserves, who won 4-2 away to Indian Gymkhana Club. And Jolof Sports lost narrowly (2-3) to an inform Sporting Duet Academy side, on Saturday. A goal from Leon Burnett, helped Kodak (Harrow) to earn a point in their game against Larkspur Rovers, which finished 1-1. At Club Des Sports, Kensington Dragons won 3-0 away to LBS Lions, while Wood Lane won 5-2 at home to Hilltop Reserves. For Wood Lane, Luqman Ibrahim (x2), Jay Hines (x2), and Mohamed Abdillahi got their goals at London Tigers Sports Complex.

I would like to wish all of the Middlesex County Football League sides all the very best of luck for 2026. There is still so much to play for across all of the league’s divisions, during the remainder of this season.
