There were teams in the NL who used iFollow, teams who had been in the football league when it was brought in but then relegated out kept it - a la Hartlepool as timbers mentions. In the same way COWS followed the football league template (I want to say PremiumTV but I am not sure) all the way down into the Conference North. We were only able to design our own when those football league contracts came to an end. Ahh, fair enough. Still, it wasn't used in the same way though as you could only get the stream from the home club for each game. I still get the occasional spam from non league clubs I had to register with to buy the stream!

During covid the fa & efl suggested clubs talked to little old us. Was such a good feeling knowing a small club was leading the way. Not small Puggers - like County - very big on heart - a lot bigger than those in the Greedy League and Wanna-be Greedy League

The Dagenham game just before Jim was sacked was great. Just two old boys talking about what their wives had made them for tea, one of them was having lasagne.
Those miserable streamed games and a packet of jalapeño pretzel pieces was about the only thing that kept me going back then.

My highlight of those days was the Maidenhead (?) game, enlivened only by the passing trains, there’ll be no such fun once we reach the Championship in 7 years

Those miserable streamed games and a packet of jalapeño pretzel pieces was about the only thing that kept me going back then. That was one of the most surreal commentary moments during Covid. Probably only matched by the Wealdstone game, which looked like it was being filmed on a Nokia phone, where the commentators referred to one corner of the pitch as "dead fox corner" because a dead fox had once been found their.

Same dogshit website that wrote an article the other week saying we were managed by "Dave Charmeleon" and played at "Pidgey Park".

Quite randomly, I've started getting emails imploring me to watch (or is it listen?) to IFollow whenever Wrexham are playing, and I also get notified whenever Torquay United's audio commentary is going live on Mixlr. Needless to say I'm yet to take up either invitation.

Needless to say I'm yet to take up either invitation. Speaking of random, I received an email from Maidenhead United about three weeks ago telling me that as I was a junior playing member of the club I could bring along an adult for free to their game against Woking on 2nd September. Although I've bought tickets and a stream from them in the past I'd never had any marketing emails from them for other games. I assumed someone had cocked up and sent the email to every email address on their database instead of just their junior players.

When Challinor was interesting Charlton my first thought was that I hope we make a sensational swoop with a return to the EP hotseat for Lincoln Hyde.

Get a mental vision of reynolds in a kitchener type of poster saying Wrexham Needs You. For some unknown reason i get messages from fylde. Does their owner know i voted for brexit.
