For us exiles too, local teams give a good outlet at a fraction of the cost.Maybe...but it's about the enjoyment of the game, the support for the local team, the ale, the friendship, and just paying on the gate when Sunderland are not playing at home is a no brainer. We should all support our nearest local team when we can and in the process enoy a good afternoon. For older people, away travel is just too much and this where our local sides give us so much.
Speaking of, despite an excellent pre-season, FC Deportivo Galicia fell 3-1 to London Lions to start the season. Getting the keeper sent of on 30 mins didn't help.
Still, top 4 is achievable, and I'm praying for a good vase run and a big Northern League team at home along the way.
