Correct. Enfield FC who we played in 1994 still exist and play in the Isthmian League division North although nowadays they ground share with Bishops Stortford.
No they don’t.
Enfield FC was liquidated in 2007.
There are two Phoenix clubs.
Enfield Town, formed by fans in 2001, have just been promoted to National League South and play in front of decent crowds in Enfield.
Enfield 1893, formed in 2007 by the people who killed the original club, changed their name to Enfield and were lucky to dodge relegation to the Essex League. They play in front of two men and a dog at Bishop’s Stortford.
Neither is the same legal entity as the original club. In spirit, Enfield Town are the old club.
Was going to post this on the ex gull thread with the talk on Liam Rosenior, but thought more relevant here.
One thing I hope we can do more of going forward is cultivate links with ex gulls managing/coaching clubs higher up the pyramid. We have seemingly utilised the link with Paul Hall at QPR well, but we also have the likes of Rosenior, Williamson, Moore managing clubs in the EFL that we need to tap into

Good shout. It's this kind of thinking and improvement to all areas of the club we need to bring in. There will be many spinning plates but the new owners I believe will want to explore every avenue from on the field to off the field.

See other clubs are posting dates of pre season friendly. All a bit worrying. Really need to get a move on if we are not going to be left behind.
I think that ship has sailed and we may have to accept that we will be left behind to some extent. I see next season, assuming we will be competing in NLS, as being one of consolidation and hopefully more stability rather than anything else. Build from there fingers crossed.
