No problem. Based on our SAT scores, I doubt 50% of South Carolina high school students know that Charlotte is not in their home state.

In any event, since I'm basically the lone ranger of the Regiment Supporters Club and a board member to boot, I will speak with complete authority by the powers vested in me. Sign us up for your competition. Leigh RMI can be Regiment (South) and Telford the designated Regiment (North) squad. Anything that pits North vs. South is OK by us.

This weekend both my teams maintain their current form with losses.

Leigh crashed out of the 4th round of qualifying for the FA Cup against Dr. Martens side Moor Green, score: 2-1. A victory would have put them in the FA Cup proper and also put a much needed £20,000 into the checking account.

For Telford, same Cup competition, same result. They lose 2-0 to fellow Conference power, Doncaster Rovers. Their play can hardly get any worse. They may not win again this season. They've had shutout losses the last 4 straight and 6 out of the last seven. A win against Conference doormat Kettering Town being their only victory and goals scored in the last month.

Okay, give the CornerKicks Burton Albion - Leigh Cowlishaw's old team. Unless there are any objections from my fellow fans.

This could be a banner weekend for my 2 clubs, Leigh & Telford. In a odd twist of fate, the 4 basement squads face off in the Dual Toilet Bowl Derby.

P Team Pld Pts
19 Leigh RMI 16 16
20 Woking 16 16
21 Telford Utd 16 14
22 Kettering 16 10

Leigh hosts Kettering and Telford entertains Woking. If any of these juggernauts are able to haul in 3 points, it would make for a banner weekend.

BTW, finally found some pretty good stat info on football365.com for the conference (go to the bottom of the page for additional links): http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/FC/overview.html

In particular, the attendance figures make the conference about equal to the A-League.

UP THE LEYTHERS !!
LET'S GO YOU BUCKS !!

Not that anyone particularly cares but this past weekend, Leigh shared the spoils (appropriate noun for these 2 clubs) with Kettering after a 2-2 finale and Telford managed a mighty 1-0 victory over Woking, simply because, according to the Telford fans, Woking cared less about the match than the Bucks. These results leave my 2 adopted clubs with only their noses barely above the regulation waterline.
