Clapton CFC (A) vs Stonewall FC

The Fixture

This LGBT+ History Month, we're excited to be hosting local allies Clapton CFC for the first time at the London Marathon Community Track.

As both sides continue to battle it out in the Middlesex County Premier Division, this fixture is likely to be a hotly competed contest. The fixture always draws a strong crowd, so we have chosen this match as our dedicated Football v Homophobia fixture as part of this month's annual campaign.

All we ask is you bring the camaraderie, noise and passion that has historically made this one of the fixtures of the year. You never know, we might even be in that kit.
