    NL is like being buried alive If you don't kick and scream and bang on the box, you're never getting out.
    We're not in part time football?

    Stop being so dramatic, we will get out of the NL when the team is good enough to...so far we've been in contention but not quite up to it.

    Doesn't mean we won't be this season, time will tell

    Very smart of you to quote part of sentence.

    I did clear up for you that Notts aren't part time and we're not being buried alive. You should change your username to the_antinotts

    Everyone knows that a large chunk of this league is PART-TIME. Maybe you never go the other grounds.

    And you don't spend nigh on half a century following a club, enormous amounts of time and financial investment to be accused of being against the club

    OK, you got mad cos I called you out on stating the bleedin' obvious but keep it in bounds

    But it's not part time? Maybe 2 or 3 Clubs are?

    How many years you've followed the Club is irrelevant

    Sorry to contradict you but THE VAST MAJORIRTY OF THIS LEAGUE IS FULL TIME.

    Currently only Wealdstone, newly promoted Dorking and possibly Maidstone Utd are part time, (Altrincham are going full time this coming season).

    Statements like the one you have made only compoud the misunderstanding that the National League is a "tinpot league" when in fact it is the 5th tier of English footbal, distinguished only from the fourth tier of the EFL by the fact that it has only one automatic promotion place.

    There is a core of ex-EFL clubs in the National Legue that have significantly more money and potential support than many clubs in the fourth tier of the EFL.

    You're not contradicting me, look up 'chunk'. It's enough
    'Tinpot' gets me thinking, a bit of tin would be useful above the head at some of the grounds to keep the pissin rain off.
    Sorry, never gonna be a fan of the NL - my only wish as a supporter is to get the hell out as soon as possible.
