That’s about a million times better to look at than the list of sides we had to play this season.

Totally forgot the playoff winners from NPL. Might see Hereford and or Brackley going south should Brackley not go up. Kings Lynn is Toss up its miles from anywhere. Weymouth travelled further to kings Lynn last night than they would have done if they were playing at altrincham

Even though Kings Lynn is a direct train from London looking at the map they are much further north than Brackley and indeed not that far from Boston so I’d say logically that they would come North.

King's Lynn would be a certainty for the North - it certainly can't be any worse than Lowestoft from a couple of years ago.

Unfortunately the league has had a knack of drawing a straight line rather than using common sense. Unfortunately that means we'd lose Hereford before we lose Brackley.

On a straight line basis, Hereford is just north of Brackley.

Sorry yes you're right, I think I was thinking of Leamington actually.

Would be good if we kept Hereford and lost Brackley and Leamington (from a club point of view, although the latter isn't the worst place to visit)

Conversely, I missed leamington last year so I would love to go here. Edgar street is a big old ground at Hereford and quite quirky. Went there for a 0-0 draw in 05 in a game that Graham Heathcote said was “the only one I’ve ever set out to be intentionally negative in”. I’ve got a friend that’s a Hereford fan, so I’d be happy with either.

Brackley is like being back in the Evostick.  Poor crowds, no decent pubs and no station. Hereford and Leamington would both be cracking days out.
