The Fleet get 2026’s away campaign started at Chippenham Town this Saturday looking to close in on those play-off places at the top of the Enterprise National League South.

Form guide
Despite being bottom of the National League South table, Saturday’s hosts are currently unbeaten in four matches – a win against Bath City on Boxing Day was backed up with draws at AFC Totton and Worthing, where they led the league leaders 2-0, with their most recent win coming on Tuesday night at home to Slough Town. From looking doomed to relegation before Christmas, the Bluebirds are on the up once again.

The Fleet remain three matches unbeaten on the road following victories at Chelmsford and Dover to close out 2025, along with a draw against Farnborough at the end of November. Yet to get our league campaign going in 2026, this next fixture will begin a run of Saturday/Tuesday matches through to the end of February. 

Last time out
Our last clash with Chippenham was the opening home game of the National South season. Aaron Cosgrave came on as a second-half substitute and secured the winner within minutes of making his appearance. This will be our first visit to Hardenhuish Park since a 0-0 draw on Valentine’s Day in 2023.
