The only people who are anywhere near smug or abhorrent are the kids who feel fit to be aggressive or nasty under the anonymity of The Internet.
Having trawled through all the message boards, it seems to me that the so-called BIG clubs such as Hereford, Morecambe and Halifax seem to think that we will cock it up, they hope we will cock it up, they call our town, our people, our hopes and aspirations - the very fabric upon which our society is weaved in the forlorn hope that Conference Royalty will be reprieved and allowed back to the Cash Cow League 2.
The so-called minnows such as Canvey, Grays and even localish rivals Alty and Southport are backing us because we give inspiration to them that a club does not need a big empty mausoleum of a ground, or wealth in the bank, or 75k strikers, or 4000 crowds, or ex-league status, or to be Welsh, or to take 1000 away, or be on Sky every week to guarantee success.
We are the blueprint on how a club should be run, financially sound, financially prudent, a young squad, an inexpensive squad, a low wage bill, fans that care about the club and back it whether it be rain or hail, or shine, in sickness and in health, with roof or without.
I hope we win the league because we would be the Phoenix from the Ashes, the first club to die and then return having rose through the ranks FROM the very bottom. I hope we win the league cos I'm a success junkie. BUT MOST OF ALL I HOPE WE WIN THE LEAGUE BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT HEREFORD, STEVENAGE,EXETER,YORK,HALIFAX,MORECAMBE,ALDERSHOT, CAMBRIDGE,DAGENHAM,CRAWLEY AND WOKING DIDN'T.
