We drew 2-2 thanks to a late goal that had an attendance of 974, we then took them back to our place and drew 2-2 in front of 1,144 people where we lost on Penalties. We have beaten West Brom's kids and Wolves Kids in the Birmingham Senior Cup on Penalties. I have seen us score last minute winners. I can chat to the gaffer and players after the game. I get Social time there and I go for the love of the game. West Brom will be there despite Lai's best efforts in twenty years time. Darlo hopefully is to.

    What a fabulous insightful vlog. You really dig deeper, in all your vlogs, into why football means so much to so many. Non League football is the lifeblood of the game followed by proper fans who follow their teams in any weather, win lose or draw,. , and run by dedicated people like Brent and Debra who have such passion for their club and community. And the young lads who said "We're not glory hunters" gave me hope for the future of the game.

This video just shows you...we all love football and at this level, you get really up close and personal. Well done for showing this level of football, just as enjoyable as videos of the top clubs.

    I've always thought that I might be overly sentimental when it comes to my love of football. I've kept most of my views about the magic and beauty I find in football to myself. You have a knack for finding and featuring the exact things I treasure the most about this game, about the towns and the people and the history and traditions, charm. While watching your videos I keep thinking to myself "Ah!! She gets it!". Scanning the comments and seeing how others appreciate what you're doing tells me I'm not the oddball I thought I was. I mean, I'm still a weirdo, but for other reasons.

    As an American, I am fascinated with League 1 and 2. Not so much the leagues below that, but there is something that is so romantic about the possibility a club from a small village coming up against true goliaths. I know it’s rare, but to think a club can work its way to the top from the bottom is what more sports need.

It’s not just money, it’s not even just passion - it’s love.
