Next Match – Basingstoke Town (A) – Southern League Premier South
City will look to build on their solid start to the 2026/27 season on Saturday when they travel to face Basingstoke Town at Winklebury Sports Complex.
PREVIOUS MEETINGS
This is City’s first visit to the ground the club moved into in October 2020. Their last away game at Basingstoke was in August 2015 at the Camrose where goals from Kevin Nicholson and Ashley Kington were enough in City’s six game winning sequence at the start of the season. Basingstoke were relegated from National League South that year, City fell away alarmingly and stayed up with a game to spare.
