More about the team
F.C. Lions are a Sunday League Football team from High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. Founded in season 2013/2014, the team came 6th in it's maiden season. A collossal title battle followed the next season with Lions being pipped to the crown by Astro 92. Nevethertheless promotion was achieved.
2015/2016 saw Lions lead at the top of the standings all season until back-to-back losses against Beaconsfield Arms in the final two games, saw the latter lift the title by a solitary point with Lions finishing runners up once more.
Lions then took a season's sabbatical in 2016/2017 when manager Will Carter was unable to commit due to work commitments before returning in 2017/2018 and finishing runners up to a very good FCS side.
2018/2019 saw Lions compete in Division 2 for the first time, achieving a 6th place finish, but reaching the final of the Divisional Subsidiary Cup, where they eventually went down 2-1 to FC Beaconsfield Reserves.
2019/20 saw Lions on course for a runners up position in the league, whilst still mathematically being able to win the league, with just 2 games left - it was unlikely as table toppers Trix only needed a solitary point in their last 2 games, before the Coronavirus pandemic swept across the world, curtailing Grassroots football. Lions were also in the semi final of the High Wycombe Combination Cup, due to face Cendon House. With victories home and away in the League over Crendon already, it was expected Lions would progress to the Final where one of Trix or AFC Liberal would've awaited. Nevertheless the season was declared null and void, and all results voided.
2020/21 was a season of rebuilding for Lions, with the emergence of FC Marlow & REOC in the Combination - Lions lost a number of players, and a huge rebuild process was undertaken. Un-suprisingly Lions struggled for results in the Premier Division as a result and was embroiled in a relegation battle up until the season once more was declared null & void.
