Kingston is in Surrey postalwise but is a London Borough (not Greater London as Maggie Thatch killed that off as a legal entity in her reign).

Cwoydon, Satton and (half of) Richmond are also London Boroughs (the other half being in Middlesex).

So you are all right.

There. A peace maker at last.

Oh, and Surrey is replete* with decentish** football clubs.

As well as the others mentioned there's Corinthian Casuals, Kingstonian, Sutton Utd, Carshalton Athletic, Croydon Athletic, Whyteleafe,  Walton Casuals, Walton & Hersham, Godalming Town, Tooting & Mitcham (the Mitcham bit anyway, and they play there). Even the Met Police (Ryman Premier. Based in East Molesey)

* that's a very Surrey word.
** by which I mean they get paid

PS and we could be visiting Sutton Utd next season too who could come up via the play offs.

Like Woking, they should survive at Conf Prem level too.

Quoted from GrimRob
Woking, Guildford and Leatherhead are the only towns in Surrey who have ever had half decent football teams.

There has never been a league football side in Surrey, despite it being one of the largest county, and the wealthiest.



That's probably got a lot to do with it. I mean the fact it has been wealthy for most of the modern age. It's had some top level football clubs in its day but they were amateur and against things like the Football League. The Casuals and the Corinthians are two that spring to mind (now one club of course).
