Guildford City Wins Pre‑Season 4‑0 Over Worcester Park

Guildford City finished its pre‑season programme with a 4‑0 victory against Worcester Park, the reigning Surrey Premier County League champions. Manager Luke Simmonds highlighted the team's organised defensive display, noting the back line’s ability to limit clear‑cut chances and maintain resilience ahead of the new campaign. The win comes as Guildford prepares to debut in the Southern Combination League Division One, with their first league match set for next Saturday away to Reigate Priory.

Other non‑league clubs also wrapped up their pre‑season fixtures. Dorking Wanderers drew 3‑3 with Charlton Athletic’s youngsters after conceding an early two‑goal lead, while Hartlepool United secured a 1‑0 win over Fleetwood Town thanks to an 89th‑minute strike from Corey McKeown. Solihull Moors were beaten 4‑2 by Northampton Town, and several clubs used the friendlies to fine‑tune squads before the upcoming season.
