These days I prefer Skipton as a place.
I do as well, & also nearby Knaresborough. Harrogate has got a massive Wetherspoon in the town.

Knaresborough is good when it is not mobbed down by the river, as is Wetherby, smaller but very nice places.I do as well, & also nearby Knaresborough. Harrogate has got a massive Wetherspoon in the town.
Southend will finish top half of the table.When it comes to league 2 we are a big club.Have some bloody confidence,call yourself supporter grrrrrrrrr.
Prefer Barnsley.
terrible ground ...
should not be allowed in the league .
I suppose you never want to see Southend in any league higher than League 1 ever again then. Seeing as we’d be too ‘small’ to be there compared to other teams.I’m with Rayleigh Boy on this one. I don’t get why Harrogate being promoted has been met with anything other than disappointment.
for me it’s another non league team in a division that is already starting to resemble non league.
To welcome Harrogate over Notts County who have history and a decent stadium on their side finest make sense to me.

Harrogate deserved their promotion, and it will be interesting to go to a new stadium (If away fans are allowed). Being a bigger club doesn’t give you a right to be in a higher league. Football would be pretty boring if smalls clubs never got promoted, and big clubs never got relegated and every club was in the league that matched their size.

Notts County
I've never been to Crawley, but they must be doubly crap.
We are arguably the most tinpot side in the league right now, so I would be wary of chucking around those stones in our glass house.
Barrow finished with 7 more points than Notts County with a game in hand and Harrogate completely outplayed Notts County in the final. Why would you want a team who didn’t deserve to get promoted to go up (Big club or not) at the expense of two teams who deserved to be promoted on footballing merit?Not really sure what your point is or if you even got mine.
Southend in higher than league 1 is quite a funny thought at the moment but if they were then I’d see them as an established professional football club with (even at Roots Hall) a proper football ground.
I’m not against progressive clubs and clubs climbing the pyramid, I simply can’t understand why having Harrogate (or Barrow for that matter) in the football league could be preferable to a football fan over having Notts County in it.
County are the oldest pro club in the country have a rich history that includes playing in the top flight, have a fantastic, what I’d call a proper football stadium and are a darn sight closer!!!
What that has to do with not wanting smaller clubs promoted is anybody’s guess ?

All three goals from HTFC came by attacking down their right and banging in a cross from deep. Some of the NC defending was poor but their set piece free kick goal was well taken.I watched the whole game dispite Notts County having far more experienced players Harrogate looked a slick outfit I can see them doing very well next season if of course they can keep hold of their players.
