nudge 10,708 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 I thought you were joking about them being vegan, so I googled it... Well, TIL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan 1,525 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Fuck sake. There were two battles to keep my numbers for the 92 up. I've been to Hartlepool but not Newport. I've been to Tranmere but not Forest Green. So obviously, OBVIOUSLY Newport stay up and Forest Green come up. I'm taking it a bit more seriously now. I'm up to (well, down to) 71.

Dan 1,525 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 I always used to see hate for Forest Green on my Twitter timeline and always used to think it was a case of another Crawley who have bought themselves up the leagues. They're basically that plus a green party football club. Couldn't make it up. Inflatable cows, chickens and pigs if we get them away in the cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 2,753 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Good for them, I used to be vegan for 5 years, and it's just hard as hell as certainly a lifestyle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artful Dodger 1,734 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Gutted for Tranmere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 2,762 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Good on them. They were unfortunate to lose out last year having finished 2nd in the league and losing the final to Grimsby. Lost out in the playoff semi v Bristol Rovers year before that so good things come to those that wait. Hope they give a good account of themselves.

Smiley Culture 1,592 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Got to feel for Tranmere, who have gave finished the season on 95pts and not gone up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Non League is a bit savage like that with only one automatic place and one place in the playoffs. Maybe they should open up three spots and relegate three league clubs.

Was there ever a reason why 3 drop from the Premiership and Championship, yet 4 drop from League One and only 2 from League Two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Premier Steve's 3,263 Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 2 was to do with the financial gap between league 2 and the conference wasn't it? I don't know if that gap still exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toony 95 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Was wanting Tranmere to win personally, but as someone has already said it's nice to see a new name in the football league. I can see both them and Lincoln surviving quite comfortably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture 1,592 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Cannot see the Football League teams agreeing to three places, for obvious reasons. Forest Green have thrown money at this, it's unsustainable, they remind me massively of Rushden & Diamonds, who are now a phoenix club.

The Palace Fan 2,574 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Given there wage bill is something like two million a year for a non league club and have a population of five thousand people I cannot understand for the life of me how this green business model can be sustainable.

The Premier Steve's 3,263 Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 They also plan on building a wooden stadium. Not very environmental chopping all the trees down needed to make this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunnersauraus 815 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Nailsworth is not to far away from me so wanted then to go up. Might go watch them some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
