Gamlingay are new into the top division this season, having finished last season in second place in Senior A Division. The final table was decided by points per game when Covid-19 brought the season to an abrupt end. They have only picked up two points from their opening five matches, but two of the defeats were only by a single goal and the other was a 2-0 loss to league leaders West Wratting. Eynesbury arrived here sitting second in the league table, undefeated, with 11 points from their first five matches.

For a team struggling near the foot of the table, Gamlingay certainly gave Eynesbury a really hard match. There were chances galore at both ends and it was good entertainment for what looked likely to be heading for a goalless draw. The Gamlingay defence managed to hold out attack after attack, with some resolute defending. Eynesbury kept pushing for a winning goal and it finally came with just seven minutes left. A cross from the left was met at the far post and a downward header squirmed past the ‘keeper at the foot of the post. Very harsh on the hosts who certainly deserved a point for their efforts.
