They've scored a pathetic 24 and conceded 56, we've scored an amazing 111 and conceded 39. That means in both our games I've celebrated 167 times and been disappointed 63 times. I'm well aware of the difference in levels, but to me a goal is a goal. I enjoy National League goals just as much as I did Division 1 (Premiership) goals.
Absolute tosh, the level always matters, a goal scored against say Man City is just sweeter than a goal scored against wealdstone , we will of course say that as we are NL, but i doubt any clubs in the PL would be excited if they fell to the NL
