Staying power, innit.
Clubs that can foster a culture and have been plugging away for many decades take them around the country. That's why Chorley have brought a few hundred to us for a regular midweek, and almost 2,000 for a playoff final.
It's a better indicator of where a club might be...
Bleak. I remember 10 Solihoof fans goading us to a 0–0 draw on a Tuesday night in the Conference North. Flyde and Salford would've brought around that when we were playing them in the glue leagues. Eastleigh tbf have some sort of die-hard contingent and I seem to recall have brought 50+ to us in...
May as well bring reelection back. Can you imagine all those fans rattling about in Bratfud City's away end? You get more attendees at a Toby Young stag do.
Stream's gone down but it looked scrappy as owt. Possibly like watching us except you actually beat lower half teams. You do wonder how much there is to this league at times. And yes, I'd be mortified if Town had a match sponsored by the Ukips.
Good luck to Wrectum tonight, and if not let Eastleigh go up for the comedy value. Bradford City will visit the Silverlake in their first EFL game, and a load of away fans' photos will go viral of this wonky ground from the non-league thanks to helpful retweets from people with usernames like...
Agree with all of this, especially the crucial point about the Northern League. As Morpeth go up as champions this season into Step 3 having won back-to-back promotions, it's pretty clear there's a lot of talent from the northeast diffusing upwards, as well as slightly better crowds(?). Part of...
A quick sken of that and the changes look too minimal to address why we've long been dealing with ridiculous nonsense such as Gloucester, Bishop's Stropford and now probably Braintree in the Conference North.
This southern-biased stuff ultimately fed upwards because where the regions are more...
Yes, Stockport and Chorley coming into this league will make it twice as interesting for us as far as fixtures go. It's impossible to fashion a derby out of Salford or Flyde. On the other hand, I'm thinking anyone but Brackley would be acceptable, as even Altrincham would be vastly preferable to...
