Is Plymouth Argyle registered with Cornwall County FA or Devon County FA as you enter Cornwall when you pass over the River Tamar or so I was once told.

Surrey's representation in football is shocking for its size i cant think of a team that even plays as high as the conference? Has to be the worst.

And Kent has the embarrassment of being represented by Gillingham. A truly awful place.

But I think it WAS in Warwickshire before they started messing around with the counties in the 1970's.

No London fringe counties do not count.
Surrey - Chelsea Fulham Palace
Kent - Charlton and Millwall
Middlesex - QPR (and Brentford for added authenticity)
Herts - Spurs/Arsenal plus local Watford oddballs
Essex - as above plus West Ham Orient and their pointless other ones
Proper Kent is the shittest football county in my mind. Maidstone were stillborn as a league club, Gillingham is the most vile place to watch football in the British Isles.

Glad it's a Tuesday evening game there.
Don't like wasting a Saturday going to that dump of a town.

I feel like Damien in the first Omen, when they take him to that church as a kid, if I go anywhere near Gillingham.

Surely chelsea and fulham haven't been in surrey for hundreds of years, or since the clubs were formed anyway?

Fair point. And Charlton have always been Kent using that principle. Millwall were techically Middlesex on the Isle of Dogs (No not essex before anyone says different), were Kent in New Cross, and now would be in what was Surrey (old border Kent/Surrey crosses the Old Kent Road at New Cross).
Sorry misread the post. No I mean from where they draw support.
