Quality wise its surprising too, as so many overseas players are in the PL and Championship now, I would argue that non league has improved with players that would have made the old Div 3 or 2 now struggling to get out of League 2 or the Conference.
No I missed that one. I am gutted I also missed the next round game against Bromley which was 3-4 thriller!!!olgitgooner wrote:Did you go to the FACup game v Burgess Hill?

very true mate - look at DJ Campbell - he knocked em in for Yeading, played against Brentford in the Cup, they signed him, had him for half a season, then he went into the Prem with Birmingham, and then Blackpool.Theoperator wrote: Quality wise its surprising too, as so many overseas players are in the PL and Championship now, I would argue that non league has improved with players that would have made the old Div 3 or 2 now struggling to get out of League 2 or the Conference.
