We all know how Wrexham fans think they are massive and too good for non league football. HOWEVER there is a new deadly variant of this 'Wxm virus'
It is called the 'Magpie virus' seems to have broken out in the Nottingham area of England. Apparently it makes these 'Magpies' go on every other message board in the NL telling their fans that they are a smaller club than themselves. Please don't confuse this with the 'Stockport' virus.
The NL must be a very strange place at the moment. 3 bickering clubs all arguing that they are the Biggest, or oldest, or got the oldest international
ground. All however are non league clubs

All clubs have the odd Billy Big Bollocks who is particularly loud behind a keyboard, but I think most realise they're playing at the level they are for a reason and naturally want to get out of it, but respect they have no divine right to promotion.
The reverse snobbery from traditional non-league clubs can be just as bad. I remember the old Confguide forum when we first dropped out the league, some of the "small man syndrome" from fans of clubs like Yeovil and Woking was horrendous.

I was actually distracted by Wrexham's massive floodlights beaming out from below the Welsh hills as I drove home along the A41 around 4pm saturday

Think all that has stopped, there are barriers there now to keep em out |

Think being relegated was just before my devachat time. I remember there being friction between the likes of Woking, Yeovil, but more that they were pointing out some of the issues with the SV dynasty quite objectively - and were proved inarguably right 😳 |

And I wouldn’t go pulling up in that car park looking for floodlights - a notorious/legendary spot back in the day, dependent on your view of things 😂
