So North We Go it Seems

I guess the leagues were compiled on total miles travelled if we are in the north because road network and local games couldn't of been looked at all.How annoyed must Worcester and Redditch be at being put South. They now only have one local game and all the rest must be and hour and a half away at the very least. Just who is it that makes these decisions? Do they travel the country,? Do they actually have any idea of what it is like to go North from Kings Lynn? It takes an hour plus just to get to Newark with all of the extra cameras and extra white lines and this is without the general traffic.To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Good Bless Uncle Dennis, why is it when we eventually get it together and get out of the Southern League he moves up a year before to cause us more grief.
On top this off,although in my more sensible moments i will admit i just want to stay up next season,this league will be much harder to get out of now with all of the relegated conference premier sides falling into it.
On a positive spin we do renew old rivalries with Tamworth,Nuneaton, maybe Boston and get to go to Newcastle twice(overnight) and Fleetwood (Blackpool-YUK! overnight).
What's the betting that the Workington game will end up being midweek for one reason or another
Well done the Barmby and Windass lads on destroying Watford last night. Local Lads Done Good!
I see that the Kit man's jacket is still missing (today's EDP civic reception picture) if you find it the reward is to stand next to him while he drinks his couple of pints of the black stuff to warm himself up before he takes his place on the bench.
