Despite the travels through the Leagues in the previous seven year, about the quarter of the teams we played had not been met in that period.
Only four teams played at a higher level last year, whilst almost half the teams (12 of 26) were in a lower league, including Morley who like us had a double relegation in successive seasons and are now on the way back up, to National League 3 this season.
