Without doubt one of the great non-league turnarounds 🦢
Not been a good day for the club, relegation has been confirmed today with defeat and also other results not going our way.
We would just like to say thank you to our loyal supporters for sticking with us through the fight.

Three years ago today, W&H were marooned in Step 6, with zero certainty over the club’s future.
Today, we finish in 7th place at Step 3 level, a staggering jump in such a short timeframe.
An incredible journey to date, and we keep building.
Onwards, and upwards.
