Just thought i would give you guys a quick report to let you know how life in the conference is.
Its a bit tiring tbh as we are playing lots of excellent fulltime teams who bring decent amounts of fans to the marston, most of them also have the correct number of digits on their hands and feet so that makes a change from playing other local rivals.
We have been on the telly once in a five goal thriller so that was really exciting, we are quite low down at the moment but many of the teams above us are not in the best of positions in terms of finances so if we do finish in the bottom four then it probably wont be the end of the world, and even if we did go down, at least we would not be in the same league as some of the local minnows that i have seen in the past. Anyway, we are starting to play some decent stuff and i have every hopw that we will get out if it as we are getting our confidence back, havent conceeded six or anything like that and the attendances are ok. Some teams seem to have loads of fans though, like one local team i know took a few thousand to middlesborough but only get four hundred now at home!
Its really great when i cant get to a game as well as the scores are always on teletext and i can read a report on there as well.
Hows life for you guys, are you still in the conference and going places, my memory is not what it used to be.

I love it Matt, We have a striker on £1000 a week, Hednesford top man is on £200... perspective people....!!!!!!!!!
Where are all your fans who went to Middlesborough eh???????
We won't go down and I love the fact that Hednesford's season is a successful one if we do.... You'll be in the FA Vase next season, I do hope you go down... Stafford will survive, and to be honest thats all we want.... Got exeter at home soon, who have you got? Kendal Town... If any of you Scabs are going can you get me some cake...? What am I saying you won't take anyone to that crunch game....
Keep on Smiling, if you don't Keys Park will become a Morrisons, at least it will regenerate the area!!!!!!!!!!!

If you want to talk attendances who got 7000 over 2 games at chirstmas last year? Not Stafford. You having a laugh if you think you are staying up.. 6 points from 15 games? Out of interest why come on here?
I dont know why you are being so cocky when your about to go in to administration....

That's true Markeg and with the Strangers having average home gates of 816, http://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/attendances.jsp?comp=5 , there can't be too many home fans at the games!:D
