As promised here is the Official little team of CP. Something fun to do, to follow lower league football that is spread across England.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tranmere_Rovers
They are in League One (which is the English 3rd Division if you count the EPL as the 1st) They finished 19th out of 24 teams last season barely avoiding relegation on the last day.
These are their first 2 matches.
7 Aug vs. Oldham Athletic, League One
9 Aug vs. Walsall, Football League Cup
The League Cup is a knockout competition between the 92 clubs in the English Football League (first 4 divisions). Wallsall is also in League One so it should be an even match.
Current squad only has 15 players!

I think if you went to play for Tranmere you might make the team they're THAT bad!

A guy from Netherlands Antilles! Awesome.
The cult hero is Ian Goodison, over 100 caps for Jamaica.
That's what I want MY Defender to look like!
The Giant Killers
And the fight for survival.
This thread is open to any other lower league or non-league discussion. i'll try my best to find silly and interesting stories from small teams!
