  • The Slippery Slope of Football.

    On their way out of The Championship back in 2010/11 season, Scunthorpe United surprisingly thumped a good QPR side under Warnock 4-1.

    Next season, Scunthorpe will find themselves in the National League North (tier 6). What an amazing turn of fortune that is, but it does illustrate how quickly things can go completely pear shaped.

      Chester are in the National League North and used to be in the old Division One.

      Darlington there with their massive stadium and Hereford.

          since 2014 when Luton were in the conference and we were heading for the prem they've gone forwards on probably a much smaller budget than us, and we have just gone backwards, just goes to show how poorly our club has been run oh and by the way that coincides with a certain DOF being appointed

            You could be on to something here.
            How come no one else has pointed this out.

                if you look at the National League most of the teams all have had previous lives in the football league

                its basically a division 3

                or in the old terms when the top flight was division 1 its basically a division 5

                and the level of football is just as good as leagues 1 and 2 all the clubs in it are proffessional and the standard is massive

                all these clubs from last season had previous league experience and some of them premier league top flight

                Wrexham
                Notts County
                Chesterfield
                Barnet
                Southend
                Dag and Rebridge
                Halifax
                Oldham
                York
                Torquay
                Yeovil
                Scunthorpe
                Maidstone

                Notts county and Oldham in the 90s were top flight
