It comes after wins against Epping Town at home (3-1), Letchworth Garden City Eagles away (2-0), Chipperfield Corinthians at home (3-0) and Ware Sports away (3-1). The other semi-final has yet to take place so we’ll […]
Ware are we going this weekend? To the Anagram Records Trophy semis in Hertfordshire, of course.. Clapton CFC look to continue their strong form by securing a spot in their second cup final. To achieve this they will have to get past higher league opposition again on their own ground. Ware Sports FC will come into […]
Clapton CFC has partnered with Newham Cyclists to organise a family bike ride from our spiritual home to our temporary home. We’ll be cycling the five miles from the Old Spotted Dog in Forest Gate to the Stray Dog in Walthamstow on Saturday, April 27th. We’ll arrive in time to watch CCFC’s last home game […]
In tricky conditions, Clapton Community kept their winning run going away to Walthamstow rivals FC Star London. As seems to be the case every time the Tons have played this year, it was blowing a gale. The ball was flying all over the place in a highly unpredictable manner. Most corners just flew directly out […]

This Saturday, Clapton Community have a crucial league clash against Walthamstow neighbours FC Star London. The Romanian heritage side currently sit sixth in the table, a point behind Clapton. Only a win will do for both sides if they wish to escape the mid-table pack and make a late bid to reel in Stonewall and […]
It’s been exciting and exhausting, but Clapton CFC’s online shop has now closed to new orders. Our away shirt story is a phenomenon that none of us could have predicted. We were overwhelmed by the support people have shown for the club and our shared values. In the summer, the story of our Spanish Republic-inspired […]
It was inevitable that this game wouldn’t feel like much of an event. These teams have seen a lot of each other recently. This wasn’t a cup semi-final.
