Hi guys - passing Woking fan here (I post on the Woking forum as Chris D). I just wanted to hop on the congratulations bandwagon and add my tuppence worth. I'm particularly chuffed for selfish reasons because I live in Eastbourne these days, so with you and Lewes both coming up, that should save me a bit of petrol money. ;D Yes, welcome to the world of squad numbers, 46 league games a season, occasional large away followings, and Northern defenders built like bungalows (with, to be fair, much the same turn of pace). I should warn you though, the standard of refereeing doesn't get any better.
Although we've been in this division now since about 1746, I remember that promotion feeling well - we had three in about 6 years, but you guys have come even further. I'm sure there must be some former Langney Sports fans among you who remember the days of Sussex League Division 3. Has it all sunk in yet?
I've been to Priory Lane about 8 or 9 times this season, mainly for midweek games, and have been suitably impressed with both team and fans. One of the friendliest crowds I've encountered. I'm looking forward to making a few more visits next season, even if I'll be cheering on the opposition for one of them.
Anyway, well done and see you next season!
