On about locations of teams within Divisions the Northern League last season was particularly Sothern bias. I work with a Notts County fan and we were talking about Gateshead.
Last season they had to travel 11,184 miles for their games. They had 14 games with in excess of a 500 miles round trip
Appreciate it will always be an issue for teams in the North East but even more so last season and their costs must have been astronomical.
