WEEKEND PREVIEW - 14 FEBRUARY

12 February 2026

Again, weather permitting, we have one cup game and a pretty full set of league fixtures scheduled.

 

The cup game is the Hampshire Saturday Trophy quarter-final between AFC Shirley and Surrey Intermediate team Hart United, which was postponed last Saturday. 

 

There is a big match in the Senior Division at the JJ as Moneyfields Res, who have risen to fourth after a great recent run, host leaders Locks Heath. Second-placed Crofton Saints host Whitehill and Bordon, who had a good derby win last weekend, but who lost 3-0 to Crofton in the Hants Saturday Trophy a couple of weeks ago.


Hook and Hedge End Rangers are now level in fifth; Hook host Liss Athletic, who are still seventh, but have only won one of their last nine games. Hedge End Rangers travel to second-last Liphook United. Further down the league, bottom club Andover Town will look to play their first league game this year as they host Denmead.


Fourth-bottom Meon Milton, winless in their last six league games, travel to the Mountbatten to face Bishops Waltham Dynamos, and Southsea Sports will look to remain clear of the bottom four, but they have a tough task at Broughton, who are in decent form.

 

In Division 1 the top two both won last weekend and both face teams in the bottom two this time out; leaders Overton United are at Mob Albion, and AFC Netley host Paulsgrove. BTC Southampton had a big win last week and host Sway, who have lost their last two after their big revival, taking them to mid-table.


BTC haven't conceded in five games. Hedge End Town are in fourth and face a difficult game at Nursling & Shirley, who, with games in hand, are still in touch with the top 5. Fifth-placed Silchester Village are at home to third-bottom Twentyten. Headley United are now up to fifth from last after three wins on the spin and travel to Hayling United, whose poor run continued last weekend in a close game with Overton.


Whiteley's great run came to an end in an exciting defeat at Headley last weekend and this time out they host Rushmoor Community, whose second visit to Oasis Mayfield in consecutive weeks (against different opposition) this will be.
