The 2010–2011 season was Sutton United's third year in the Isthmian League Premier Division and covers the period from 1 July 2010 to 30 June 2011.

Background

Sutton were relegated from the Conference South during its 2007–08 season. They finished with 24 points,^[1] which was then the lowest points total in the league's history. Their season still jointly holds the record for the fewest wins in a season, with 5.^[1] They joined the Isthmian League Premier Division.

Former Eastleigh assistant manager Paul Doswell was brought in as manager during the 2008 close-season,^[2] stating he wanted the club to gain promotion in two seasons.^[3]^[2]In the 2008–09 season, the club finished fifth in the league and reached the play–offs. They faced Staines Town away in the semi-final, but lost 3–0.^[4]

The 2009–10 season was Doswell's second in charge, ending with Sutton second, again gaining entry to the play-offs. This time, the team faced Kingstonian at home. They lost 4–2.^[5] Despite Doswell failing in his aim to gain promotion in two seasons, he stayed on as manager.^[3] In both seasons, Sutton reached the First Round proper of the FA Cup. In the 2008–09 FA Cup, the team played Notts County and lost 1–0.^[6] In the 2009–10 FA Cup, Sutton played Hereford United away and lost 2–0.^[7]

In May 2010, Sutton announced that they had signed striker Richard Jolly from Carshalton Athletic.^[8] Later in the month, it was announced that Craig Dundas, Sam Page and Fola Orilonishe would be signed and that Sonny Cobbs and Francis Quarm would be leaving.^[9] In addition, it was announced that Kennedy Adjei would be joining the club on a season-long loan from AFC Wimbledon.^[9]
