counties in england never to have a league side....ever, ever EVER?

[Man of Harveys]

Have north, south, and west Yorkshire all had teams?

 

[Les Biehn]

Westmoreland made up half of what is now Cumria - the other half was Cumberland.

Carlise United, Workington and Barrow were all in Cumberland - there haven't been any clubs from Westmoreland ever to play in the league.

But if Westmorland doesn't exist anymore does it count?

Have north, south, and west Yorkshire all had teams?

ooooohhhh

LAIR

 

[Tooting Gull]

cornwall
rutland
huntingdonshire
isle of wight
west sussex
westmorland


are we ALL agreed that this is the FINAL LIST?

Sorry, back to the drawing board. It's a little known fact that Land's End did actually qualify for Europe in 1903.

 

[Artois]

What about East Sussex?


The Albion is technically in Brighton & Hove, not Sussex.

 

[The Large One]

Have north, south, and west Yorkshire all had teams?

Yes, yes they have.

A Town in Wiltshire, yes I know. I was posing the question is Swindon not in Wiltshire, in response to a suggestion that Wiltshire may not have a league team..

You NONCE max!

[The Large One]

Yes, but it WAS in East Sussex.

Look at the title thread 'EVER, EVER...'

Brighton and Hove isnt a COUNTY though - is it?!!!

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

Look at the title thread 'EVER, EVER...'

exactly, you have your eye on my balls on this one

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

Brighton and Hove isnt a COUNTY though - is it?!!!

kinda is- it doesn't come under east or west sussex

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

kinda is- it doesn't come under east or west sussex

Now im confused!!!

 

[Artois]

Brighton and Hove isnt a COUNTY though - is it?!!!

No, it's not. That's the point.


Although I retract my original remark as of course the Albion were once in East Sussex.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

Now im confused!!!

it doesn't come under west or east county council

is what i meant

geographically it is in east sussex

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

No, it's not. That's the point.


Although I retract my original remark as of course the Albion were once in East Sussex.

But Brighton and Hove surely is in the county of East Sussex - as Hove is??

My brain hurts

 

[Dandyman]

Surrey.

Manchester United. Oh, hang on...

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

oh i just don't KNOW anymore

anyway, WEST SUSSEX has never had a professional football team

 

[The Large One]

But Brighton and Hove surely is in the county of East Sussex - as Hove is??

Politically, it's on its own. As far as the Royal Mail is concerned, it's in East Sussex. As far as Norman Baker is concerned, it's a nasty creeping levitathan whic has wholly swallowed Lewes. As far as geography goes, the line on the map keeps moving...
