Hornchurch's season in the Isthmian League Premier Division was suspended in November 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and they were unable to play any league football. During this time they were financially supported by West Ham United chairman, David Sullivan who once lived in Hornchurch.[4] Likewise Hereford's season in the National League North had been declared null and void on 18 February 2021, having played their last league fixture of the season two days prior.[5]
