My own local non-league club growing up on Merseyside were Poulton Victoria. West Cheshire League, which is level 11, so just below FA Cup eligibility, and only FA Vase if you've got floodlights (I don't recall any). I assume facilities were also a criterion for promotion into the North West Counties, cos we never managed it, and it took Vauxhall Motors and Cammell Laird any number of titles before they ascended to Tier 10. The club folded a few years back, but have re-emerged in West Cheshire Div 3. Top division now is full of cross-river interlopers, like South Liverpool (no doubt banging on about Puskas) and Maghull (same, but with Atomic Kitten).
Greatest success: winning the Carlsberg Pub Cup in '97 at Wembley over some team from Corby. I've got the VHS.

What happened to the BBC covering the FA Cup?
― Waterloo Subset (Tom D.), Friday, 22 January 2021 20:11 (three years ago) link
they've got 3 or 4 games over the weekend but they don't cover the likes of us if they can help it
― the scamp has a thousand fries (Noodle Vague), Friday, 22 January 2021 20:13 (three years ago) link
They often cover the likes of Chorley though, romance of the Cup an' all that.

altho this is STILL an upset waiting to happen
This john lad at left back looks like he could get a game at spurs
― Qanondorf (darraghmac), Saturday, 23 January 2021 15:06 (three years ago) link
ie Two touches that landed in another postcode and totally fucking asleep to concede a goal down his side in the first three minutes
David Moyes' West Ham are..
Good?

Has been good so far. Of course I missed the opening goal putting on a washing but end to end stuff

Im glad tonight I'm a Chelsea fan

Battling Spurd really staying in this.
― Qanondorf (darraghmac), Monday, 25 January 2021 20:32 (three years ago) link
Just before half time too, get them in now and get the word out, keep it tight and hope to be within a goal with ten mins to go we'll throw the big lads on
― Qanondorf (darraghmac), Monday, 25 January 2021 20:35 (three years ago) link
otm game plan so far

they'll not be dancing in the streets of wycombe tonight

Phenomenal cameo.
― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Monday, 25 January 2021 21:39 (three years ago) link
This match is so shite. Moyes' presence in Old trafford obviously having an impact on man u, some sort of past life reversion going on

35 minutes, 0-1 Spurs

Anyway, 3-2.

Obv a pen tbh
These cunts just wont defend
Lloris is gutless and toby is silent, some leaders at the back
Played well tbh
― scampsite (darraghmac), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 21:46 (three years ago) link
I wasnt sure there was contact, replay looked inconclusive
― Dusty Benelux (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 21:49 (three years ago) link
Lloris and passing out from the back from our own kickouts have had more to do with it tbh
― scampsite (darraghmac), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 21:57 (three years ago) link
Hockey score.
― Dusty Benelux (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 21:58 (three years ago) link
Think it was hojbjerg gave it away cheaply there, putting him at fault for three tonight
Lloris jumped out of way of it too.
― scampsite (darraghmac), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 22:25 (three years ago) link
Winks, apparently
― scampsite (darraghmac), Wednesday, 10 February 2021 22:27 (three years ago) link
This has been so much better on the ball tonight tho tbh

Well that was a rubbishy first half but I'm drinking and slacking so it's just like half-ignoring the game in the pub
