Sussex County Football League became the Southern Combination Football League, it was either that or be gobbled up by the FA, they had no choice. They also made Div 1 the Premier League (stroke of unequalled original thought). As it stands all Combination League sides are Sussex based. However...

They have four, Langney Wanderers.

No, nothing to do with Town or Utd. Town have a very rich history, great club and ground, real old feel of non league. Eastbourne Utd have an equally rich history and managed by a good mate of mine. They can count ex West Ham and England manager Ron Greenwood amongst their managerial list. Much...

And boy was I drunk :drink:

No they can't switch the tie, but they can host it at a bigger venue in their vicinity if necessary. However their ground holds around 4,000 which stacks up with a few League 2 grounds and National Prem, so that won't happen.

Sadly, agree on Whitehawk too. Had a great history in the SCFL, they're not a non league club in my book nowadays. Just a play thing for Brighton money men.

I think we can both be right on this mate. For my bad I always take histories from County League on, even though I spent 15 years in West Sussex Football League. They were Langney Sports when they hit the Sussex County League 3, hence my ignorance. I remember them beating us (EP) to the league...

I blame you for this!! I am in a whole conversation with my EBFC friend now! Haha

Actually mate he just sent me this message which makes me think County League onward I am right, it is all rather confusing...

He came back to me, you are correct.

I've asked an aficionado... he will tell me :smile:

No, but I was heavily involved for many years in many capacities of County League Football and I know a few of those that started Langney (no FC or Sports to keep this real lol) which is why I am going to ask. Edit: And I'm not doing this on oneupmanship I promise, I am doing this for my own...

I know in the world of things it is not important but I will find out mate, I never remember Langney FC, just the other two, which is why their nick is still Sports to remember their past.

Yeah but that's what I said in my first post "Langney Sports have done good" or whatever. I would need to speak to my good mate Dave Bauckham but I think you'll find they have just had the two names.

Please tell me the third name. That asides apologies for taking it the wrong way.

So why post? Half wit is winning the case on NSC tonight.

Eastbourne Borough for about 15 years or so. I know they just consistently change their name, twice in their history. Langney not Langley.

Langney Sports have come a long way.
