If we can't class Vernam as our own because he's from Caistor, we can't claim Louth born Paul Wilkinson either.

Clifton has come through own youth set-up and truly is one of our own.   It doesn't matter if he was born over the river or not.  

The important thing is that we look to have a young and hungry side who are prepared to run through brick walls for each other.  That's far more important than the name of a town on a birth certificate.

So where is the line where they become one of them and not one of us? When are they Lincoln,Scunny or Hull?


We could do with someone producing a Venn diagram, anyone?

Good to see the 'BARNETBY MARINERS' flag draped across the empty side stand yesterday. It's like the Scottish border country along the Wold escarpment. Beware of Raiders!

The border towns used to be Barton, Brigg and Market Rasen. Always some flexibility in that depending on relative positions League positions.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

What about south past Louth and Mablethorpe? Who do they support in Skegness? Hopefully not Boston.

Louth is definitely Town. Skeggy has answered the further southern reaches - it all gets a bit unpredictable the deeper towards the Fens you get. Probably prefer pole vaulting over water courses and counting sheep in 'Welsh'

Quick Q for fun, though not directly linked, who can remember the game on MOTD when 2 of the Moore brothers were on opposing teams, without WIKI who knows which 2 and who Town were playing?
