    Do they have deep pockets?

    Worst town in the National League.

    Halifax was an unexpected pleasure. Finding the Piece Hall. Pubs advertising gigs. Close to the town centre. Just a nice town with a good vibe. No doubt it has its rough side...

    Worst town in the National League.

    I wanted to prove you wrong on Gillingham, but on TA pretty much anything decent involves leaving Gillingham. https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attractions-g503904-Activities-Gillingham_Kent_England.html Central Maidstone could be so much better if the council hadn't allowed a retail park on one...

    Admission Prices 2019/2020.

    Local authority workers? Many of who will have wages and pensions well in excess of the private sector. I'm curious why that is.

    Admission Prices 2019/2020.

    Supply and demand. Not enough seats at Maidstone, with most reserved by season ticket holders. Glad we're not the only ones charging £15 to stand. Inevitable when you have full time players in the NLS.

    Gateshead

    Much as I sympathise with Gateshead fans, the best thing the FA and NL could do is stop sugar daddy subsidised clubs.

    Admission Prices 2019/2020.

    Despite relegation, Maidstone remains £15 to stand and £3 extra for the few available seats. Particularly interested how that compares to other north/south league teams. Newly promoted Kings Lynn have announced £15 standing, £17 for seats.

    One gets the feeling that this sorry story is finally reaching its inevitable conclusion.

    As are Ebbsfleet at 149. Is it actual winding up, or an admin final warning type thing?

    The Notts County 'Massiz' (Bantz 'N Debate)

    You can actually buy a sticky thread on these forums. Surprised Salford didn't do that.

    Worst town in the National League.

    Gravesend is an interesting mix of industrial town and commuter suburb, combined with London overspill and immigration.

    Worst town in the National League.

    As discussed elsewhere. https://www.streetcheck.co.uk/crime/da119dn I'll kick this off with Northfleet.

    2018-19 National League South

    We had the budget, but not the infrastructure. The manager wanted money spent on fitness programmes, which was refused. When it went wrong, a fortune was spent on loan players and temporary fixes, rather than working out a long term strategy. With Still and Hakan, it feels like we are planning...

    2018-19 National League South

    Pretty good summary. Maidstone will remain "full time" but on a reduced budget; no idea what that is. It is possible to survive in the NL, like Bromley and Sutton, but it feels harder. After three years of struggle, not everyone at Maidstone longs for an immediate return. Although it's hard to...
