Which clubs from the National League would you like to be facing in Lge2?
Barrow on a roll atm, could they escape the mud pit.
Obviously t'sheep won't threaten. But would we like a game in Nottingham again?

There's no way we're going up and Florist down, so there'll be no day out in Nott's next season mate. ;)

As things are I'll just be happy we're not playing all the teams in the National League.

I'd like Barrow to come up.

I've always had a bit of a soft spot for them. I think it's because they're the first club I can remember dropping out of the league.

I've just read Home and Away by Dave Roberts in which he describes following his beloved Bromley for their first season in the Conference in 2015 and gazing in wonder at the magnificent Blundell Park. So a visit to Hays Lane would be good before they tumble back down into non league

A work colleague who’s a County fan said Barrow are the best side he’s seen in a five years, so they have a good chance.

Thanks Edders. I'm pretty sure he was a double signing with Nick Sharkey and we all know what they went on to do in February 69. So let's reward Barrow with fixtures in 2020

Halifax - they’ve got a nice ground, a huge standing away end and it’s only about 90 minutes away. We’d take loads there if we went in good form.

Harrogate, Sutton & Bromley have all got to rip their pitches up if they go up.

Well we seem to grow a new pitch every close season and I know there is more to do when replacing a plastic surface, but I would think the basics are still there. I'm sure the increase in visiting fans would offset the rest.

Although I agree with you Edders, I think a couple of decades would be better.

I don't really care about them. Probably because I'm from Boza and never see any of their fans like other Stags fans do.

I just want a decent day out again!

I don't care. But I'd like County & Chesterfield to stay in the Conference for at least the next 5-10 years.

If nothing else, it might help to improve our own fan base. We can always play them in the FA cup if we miss our derbies against them.

To be fair that is a good point about fan bases. I know a lot of young kids in Boza are choosing to support the Stags instead of Chesterfield now.

If we manage to stay up barrow would be a fantastic away game, it’s so raspberries it’s actually decent.

Harrogate would also be decent.
