Hartlepool fans

Cheltenham and Tranmere for me. Would like York, Hartlepool & Daggers to stay up. Daggers fans are not a bad bunch & came up with us so like them to stay put.

Why the big teams when the revenue from them keeps us going. Without bigger clubs we would be up the creek. Then you would get served crap at the Globe every week.

The argument would be that the more "bigger clubs" we have in the division the harder it will be for us to compete on the pitch as they will all be able to afford a higher quality of player than us.

The more Accrington, Dagenhams, Torquays etc we have in the division the better it is for us in theory.

In practice this doesn't really seem to bare fruit that often as seen with the likes of Tranmere struggling this season, Northampton in previous years and Bristol Rovers going down last season. I think that's where the value of having a competent manager in Jim Bentley who knows the level and has a proven track record of being able to keep a team in the division on a meager budget comes in to play.

So we shouldn't have the likes of Bradford & Carlisle who fill our away end anymore?

Financially it's obviously better to be in a league of relative big clubs with large away support although in theory it will be much more difficult trying to compete with these clubs on the pitch due to their vastly superior spending power.
