Wednesday 4 November 2026 · By Julian Ockley

Walton & Hersham travel to Slough Town on Saturday 7 November in a meeting of the bottom two sides in the Enterprise National League South. Walton are 23rd with eight points from 14 games, four ahead of Slough, who have four points from 15.

There has also been a change to the fixture list. Walton’s home game with Dover Athletic, which had been moved to Tuesday 10 November, has been postponed again and will now be played on Tuesday 1 December at 19:45, Dover announced on 4 November. Dover said it had been “postponed due to international call-ups”, without saying whose players were involved. The fixture was first due to be played on Saturday 17 October.

Walton’s most recent game was a 3–0 home defeat by Torquay United on Saturday 31 October. Matt Jay, Cody Cooke and Jacob Beaumont-Clark scored for Torquay. The Non-League Paper said Walton’s “miserable home record continued”, and Torquay’s report credited Makise Evans with Walton’s clearest chance, which was saved by Toby Savin.

That defeat came four days after a 2–0 home defeat by Salisbury on Tuesday 27 October. Walton’s own report on that game said they “were left still looking for their first home win” after “two disallowed goals and a good shout for a penalty rejected”, and also referred to “a temporary floodlight outage”. The club later issued a statement saying: “Any alleged incident will be taken seriously and investigated.” No outcome has been published.

Walton have no home league win in seven games this season. They lost 3–0 to Maidstone United on 15 August, 2–0 to Dagenham & Redbridge on 18 August, 4–1 to Dorking Wanderers on 29 August and 2–0 to Ebbsfleet United on 5 September, drew 2–2 with Farnborough on 26 September, and then lost to Salisbury and Torquay.

Their two wins have both come away, 3–1 at Braintree Town on 6 October and 1–0 at AFC Totton on 10 October. They have lost their last three league games, including a 1–0 defeat at Horsham on 24 October.

Ruben Gaspar’s side have won two, drawn two and lost ten. Their ten goals are the fewest in the division, and they have conceded 33. They are seven points behind Hemel Hempstead Town in 20th, the last safe place, and three behind Hampton & Richmond Borough in 22nd.

There was a community story this week, as the club welcomed Walton Charity residents to the Elmbridge Xcel Sports Hub for a Swans 11 visit. Former Walton player Anis Nuur has joined Farnborough.

After Slough, Walton host Aveley in the FA Trophy second round on Saturday 14 November. In the league they then host Chelmsford City on Saturday 21 November, travel to Weston-super-Mare on Tuesday 24 November and visit Hemel on Saturday 28 November, before Dover come to the Xcel Sports Hub on 1 December.
