Seems like theres been a lot of movements in the NWC leagues which on paper, look odd. Sure I've seen Stockport Town have gone in to a Midlands league which doesn't sound great tbh. Isn’t that Cheadle Town ? |

Glad we're not in the national league NORTH Is it me, or does it feel so much more non-leaguey now!? Felt like when we were there, we had a few reasonably sized/backed clubs with us. Radcliffe, Peterborough Sports, Warrington Town, Needham Market etc is ridiculous. |

Radcliffe, Peterborough Sports, Warrington Town, Needham Market etc is ridiculous. This is the map when we won it. I do see what you're getting at. Would probably class Leamington as pretty non leaguey. Maybe it's a form of Stockholm Syndrome that the likes of Alfreton, Telford and Guiseley seem bigger than those clubs you mention.  Edit - and I've just realised that Leamington are still there now. |

For some reason Solihull didn’t feel as non-league as they should do but maybe that’s because they’re were fairly competitive in the NL too. |

Looking at that map especially with teams who can count attendances in 100,s rather than 1,000,s and most being part time i feel there is now need for 3 regional NL. A north, south and a midlands one with the champions gaining promotion and a PO for the 4th promotion place.
