Anyone follow any non league teams to get their footy fix when not watching spurs?....
Who,why and what sort of standard is the footy

well i am following a non league side this season only because my 2nd team; Oxford Utd had been relegated from the football league to the conference. the standard isnt great, mostly long ball stuff from a lot of the sides. Oxford dont play long ball stuff, Jim Smith has got them playing well with a 3-5-1-1 formation.

I have been following the rise and rise of my local side, Grays Athletic. The future had been looking bright, but in the close season there has been a lot of big exits and now I'm not sure how they will be able to respond next season.

Rushden and Diamonds. No real reason, just cos they have a great name! They really looked like they were going places a few seasons ago, but it's fallen apart and we're back in the conference. Ah well... :)

Coming from Barnet i always keep an eye on their results. I never thought they'd ever get in the league, especialy when you had to be voted in.
There was no way that the london clubs would've voted for them or watford or luton either come to that.

Yes, Walsham le Willows fc. They play in the Ridgeons league (old eastern counties league) step 6 of the football pyramid. They play in the Fa cup and vase as well. I used to play in goal for them and was fortunate enough to play at Portman Road (Ipswich Town). I now play in goal for the Reserves mainly now, but still play the odd game for the 1st team. I watch Spurs midweek and sundays as often as i can.

Not non-league but I follow Swansea as often as I can (the new stadium is great) and I hate Cardiff (scum).
A bad start to the season for the Swans, hopefully they can sort it soonish. They are playing some good stuff, having difficulty reproducing last season's form so far. Hopefully they can put last season behind them with promotion to the championship this year.
If Cardiff get to the prem I will definately be at Ninian for the Spurs game, and gleefully watch as we thrash them.

I go to Barnet occasionally just to alleviate boredom and to appreciate the quality of football we see down the Lane.
