After finding out on the news of Leyton Athletic’s removal from the Eastern Counties League, fans expressed their reaction as well as their sadness…
Unbelievable what a shame! All the hard work @FitchSharon Martin and the guys did when they were Wadham Lodge taking them though the @eofl to the @EssexSenior to see them pull out is terrible

Shambles, but been coming ever since the new chairman took control of the club.
Feel so sorry for Sharon and Martin and everyone else that had been involved. ?
Just glad it's no longer in the Wadham Lodge name.

This is a shame. I was looking forward to a friendly rivalry with @leyton_athletic. Good luck for the future https://t.co/0cTkihN02C

@shamacle: Tbh i can give an honest opinion. I was at Wadham for 2 seasons. The club was run fantastically in the 1st season by Martin and @FitchSharon. Don’t like to bad mouth people but Ken the new chairman destroyed the club. Sacking manager after manager, making false promises.
@bradgayer: This is 100% true, having been at Wadham for 3 seasons, Martin and @FitchSharon all did an amazing job! From the minute Ken came in the circus started, manager sackings and chairman interference was always going to lead to the demise of this club. Sad to see R.I.P #WandOfWadham
Robin Morgan on Facebook: I believe that this may have been caused by the fallout following the cancellation of Barking FCs 3G pitch for season 2019/20. It’s always sad to see a club close at any non league level! ?
