Anglia is just the Latin name for England East Anglia (the Nuts 2 statistical region) is the region with the only Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire (Inc Peterborough) Therefore our rivalries based on competitiveness should be as follows: Peterborough Cambridge Utd King's Lynn Sudbury Bury Town Histon Soham Dereham Felixstowe Cambridge City I'm probably missing someone obscure but I can't think who 🤔 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,168 Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) OK! I'll admit it.

I could only skim read - but I have to mention their love of Sheepshanks (admittedly everything is relative) Sheepy takes them up (so far so good) , has a good season ( still good) and then makes ludicrous financial decisions including signing the legend that is/was Finidi George (they weren’t even sure how old he was)! Quickly on relegation they go into administration, Sheepy (presumably in desperation) finds Mucus , and clears off! The fact that Sheepy then pulls every string he can from the Old Boys network , gets a number with the FA , overspends St George’s park , and gets a knighthood or some such , is another story altogether.
