I bet that'll upset some locals. Pudsey ain't it.

Apart from anything else, I'd have thought that a fair chunk of their potential fanbase is in Bradford.

"cash in on the city's profile" in relation to football are they sure...

Good pre season win for Southport last night, beat Tranmere at home 1-0 Rodney Jack is currently on trial and IMO has to be snapped up, a youngster to watch coming through Mark Houghton apprently really impressive again last night.

Bring on the blue square north

Rodney Jack!? Is he in his 40s?

35 he is now, got good experience and is still able to do i job in the lower leagues. Could be a good signing for 'port that

Rodney Jack would be incredible at Blue Square North level, I'm still haunted by his 35 yarder for Crewe at the Reebok



Went to see an under strength RMI side draw 1-1 at Cammell Laird last night, with one of our two Euro aways coming up at Colwyn Bay on Saturday.

And with age on his side too, at 35 he still has plenty to offer and at this level i think he will shine, plus he is a good experienced striker for houghton to be playing alongside.

Not the worst result in the world then last night, and depending how under strength you were

Sell-outs, quite.

I'd be tempted to form FC Celtic of Farsley if that happened!

Anyway, what I wrote on the Celtic forum:

London Hotspur?
Liverpool Toffees?
Birmingham Villa?
South East London Athletic?
South Leeds Hawks RLFC?


You get the picture.

I think the fact that Farsley is not a nationally well known town or city is a good thing on the club's part because it immediately makes people curious as to who the club are.

I think most people who are proper football fans in Leeds and Bradford (a city of 300,000 on the club's doorstep, lets alianate them!) know very well who Farsley Celtic are and where they're from, likewise with non-league fans nationally.

Farsley Celtic has a proud history going back nigh on a century - a great little club who have successfully worked their way up the pyramid. A Leeds name makes it sounds a little... franchisey!

Keep the Farsley name!!

Do Leeds United count as a non-league club at present?

They're more a not-in-any-league club.

used to be a season ticket holder at EMLEY until they sold out to wakefield council, havent been to watch them since the 2002/2003 season. if i watch anyone now its the new club in emley AFC EMLEY currently in the northern counties league and still playing at the welfare ground
