Non-League Football

[Muppet]

I thought I'd write this post just to make people more aware about something that I feel very passionately about, and that is non-league football.

For those of you who don't know, non-league football in England is football played in the leagues under the English League 2. The top flight of non-league football in England is the Blue Square Premier.

Most of you reading this will support a Premiership or higher league club. In all honesty, that's your choice, no questions asked. But, for those of you who support clubs that are not based locally, meaning you can't attend games easily, I ask you to give non-league football a chance. It is more than likely that nearby to you, there will be a non-league team, wanting new supporters to come and watch them.

Watching a non-league team in action could potentially change your attitude to football for the better. The whole club, including fans, and the team itself, is like a big family.. The club takes care of its fans as people, not just a click of the turnstile.

You may think 'Ergh, non-league football, what a load of rubbish!'. Well, I have to admit, the quality of the football may not be as good as Man United or Liverpool, but the atmosphere created by passionate supporters that can go to every game to follow their club is something incredible. Also, there are undiscovered talents playing for lower league clubs. For example, Russell Hoult, an ex-Kettering (my club) goalkeeper, ended up playing for West Brom when they were in the Premier League a couple of years ago.

Thanks for reading my post, and hopefully this has encouraged you to at least give non-league football a chance. Who knows, you could really enjoy it...

I gave non-league football a chance and 10 years later we're in the Championship playing at St.James' Park.

You suport Newcastle? Or you support a team in the championship, thus playing at St James' Park?

I support my local team, Peterborough United, got our first win yesterday afternoon, against S****horpe

Nah, think I'll continue supporting my local team.

I was born in Liverpool but now my local team would be Tranmere. Not sure what non-league teams there are around me though.

I was playin footy in the park last week and there was an organised game on, we stopped to watch it a few times because it was really good.
