M 6 or M5 ?

Delighted. Common sense prevails, And just for Westy as he has been ignoring all my recent attempts, there's now a harmony in my head.......

I did actually spot EHN, but refused to comment due to not wanting to encourage your poetry too much!

Me, I was getting a feeling Nostagia for the Southern League

Being in the NPL will mean a host of new opponents and grounds.

If I am right, the Yeltz have never played:

• Ashton United
  FC United of Manchester
  Skelmersdale Utd
  Barwell
  Workington
  Trafford
  Matlock Town
  Buxton
  Whitby Town
  Witton Albion
  Nantwich Town
  Marine
  Ramsbottom Utd

In additon we have not played at Curzon Ashton and we have not 'entertained' Blyth Spartans.

One bad thing about NPL according to sourbridge site the matches kick off a week late 16th August.

Raiden off for another drink to keep him going.

Also note their top goal scorer Gedes has not re-signed for them yet. Wonder if he is a target for JH to keep the bench warm and give another option to us?

Just bring him on for the penalties, I see he scored a lot of them last season

Technically nobody has re-signed for us (or you) yet as the Leagues don't accept registrations until after the constitutions have been finalised at the AGMs, precisely because of all the nonsense we've had this week. If all our players had already signed SL forms they'd have to be dergistered now and then re-signed on NPL forms.

However, you can obviously sign contracted players at any time (subject to them signing the relevant League registration forms at the appropriate juncture), and Sean Geddes has signed a contract with Stour until January 2016.

I haven't had an alcoholic beverage since Tuesday! I will most definitely have a break down if we kick off a week later than anticipated. I'm already excited and can't wait for the season. Miss it already!

we dont need Gedes if his goals came from pens we have Christie for that. :-)

Great research Juanillo. I was going to look into this myself. Looking forward to Blyth Spartans but personally can't see the excitement about FC United of Manchester, they aren't a proper club!

I tend to agree there - the protesting fans could've done more good supporting a team like their hosts Bury.
They have under-achieved now for 6 seasons in the NPL despite being hot favourites every season and are an example that a big budget and money don't guarantee success. They will eventually go up, but if it came down to it and it couldn't be us, I would rather our neighbours from down the road beat them to it.
