SUFC will be the twelfth most travelled club this season

Just seen this posted by the FL Twitter feed, no surprise that in a predominantly Northern league, we're twelfth in the the most miles to travel this season table.

Living in North Wales has at last become worthwhile, just need a good season now:smile:

With over 8100 miles to travel does it imply/impact on the size of the squad and performance. I see Chris Phillips suggests a larger squad would be indicated because of the overall season long ramifications?

It is interesting to read the actual figures for what most of us thought. Also we have increased our mileage by just 2% over last season.
If Col Ewe had gone down (& L.O) our mileage would have we been much worse.

Let us make haste into the Championship and save fuel.:happy:

Shows how good some in the league have got it. The bottom 14 clubs (those that travel the shortest distance) are all in league 1

Many factors affect performance this is a minor one.

If distance traveled equates to costs then does that not disadvantage our club with expense and also us, the fans? And it must also mean we are likely to have less than expected visiting fans make the trip to The North Bank (not got a great reputation among away fans) as many of the northerners will do their occasional "away day" trips closer to home than trek down the usually tedious M6, M1, A1, M25, and A127 at a very slow pace.
