Just going off the start of the season, with Solihull registering 10 points from first 4 fixtures, looks like it's going to be much more competitive this year. I can't imagine Barnet have improved that much on last year.

I reckon a few teams have a great chance of making it to the football league.

Would be great to see Solihull finally make it up. With a lot of luck, exchanging places with Disney FC

I felt really bad for them when they lost in the play-offs, and then we lost and I forgot Solihull existed.

It’ll be nice to see another West Midlands club in the professional leagues.

What kind of attendances do they tend to get?

Most of the time somewhere between 1k-2k, occasionally more.

Bankrolled by a fairly wealthy owner, and managed by Andy Whing who seems to be doing a good job.

No way is their stadium fit for the football league though.

Also got our former U21 players Callum Maycock and Joe Newton

Hope Altrincham do well as my nephew is in the first team there.

I would say congratulations, TGP, but haven't got a clue what the hell you are talking about.

Another win for Solihull last night at Hartlepool, both of these lads on the scoresheet

Would be great to see them enter the league but Chesterfield are the runaway leaders with a massive budget

 

[Joy Division]

It's good to see some of the local teams doing well and some of our former young players making the step back up. For me however, I'd much prefer to see traditional Football league sides like Chesterfield back in the league so it's good to see them doing well too. Solihull are well backed financially but in terms of infrastructure and fanbase they are still miles away, the ground needs upgrading badly.

Their stadium fulfills the league two requirements.

Yes but it makes Accrington Stanley's ground seem like Wembley stadium

It doesn't look any worse than Barrow

Or from the outside Harrogate

 

[Joy Division]

Harrogate have made a number of significant improvements over the past few years and although still on the smaller side it's a smart looking ground. Barrow is pretty ramshackle but at least can cope with some larger crowds. At Solihull they do tend to struggle when the crowd pushes closer to 2,000 and even their own fans admit it needs a lot of work to be able to cope with this. I've been there a few times and really does need a lot of work, especially replacing the open temporary seating on one side
