Cambridge Batch Red Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 If you think we have got it bad at least we are not Stockport. This sat on the final day of the conference Stockport County have to beat title chasing Kidderminster Harriers to avoid relegation. They are fourth from bottom and if they lose or draw they will be the first former league club to be relegated from the conference and into a regional league - Blue Square prem - the Northern version of the same league as Weston. It went down hill for them ever since they ground shared with Sale Sharks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what's going wrong? Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Didn't they employ a foreign manager who'd never managed before then sack him 3 weeks later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swindon8er Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Chester just won promotion this season to be fair. Seen stuff on youtube and Stockport are still taking big away followings around the Conference grounds, hop they bounce back for the supporters.

GodEmperor Palpatine Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Didn't they employ a foreign manager who'd never managed before then sack him 3 weeks later? Who? Stockport? pretty sure it was Dietmar Hamman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 If they go down all they need to do is play “Always look on the bright side of life”. This works wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Peacock Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Merthyr in the league? During the 1920's, but I have just noticed it is a phoenix club now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Didn't Scarborough drop like Boston did? Maidstone were in the League for three years; are they still going? As for Merthyr; yes they and Aberdare were in the League. Merthyr Town - Formed 1908. Wound up 1934. - Founder Member of Division Three 1920. Failed re-election 1930. Aberdare Athletic - Formed 1892. Wound up 1928.- Elected to Division Three (South) 1921. Failed re-election 1927. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Is alarming. Driving down the A38 to Plymuff not that many years back and overtook a car with Stockport fans in it en-route to Gargyle. Think they were Championship at the time and remember thinking 'I wish that was us' (we were at least a League below). How times change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambridge Batch Red Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm sure Halifax Town were relegated from the Conference before they went bust and reformed as FC Halifax. No they were ejected from the conference and wound up. All those clubs were either ejected, wound up or reformed. Boston were ejected for tax evasion.
