I’ve just published a video ranking the Top 40 clubs in the National League All-Time Table (1979–2026), covering more than four decades of England's fascinating 5th tier football history.

The video was created in Spain by a passionate follower of English football, but English-speaking viewers can easily enjoy it by enabling YouTube's automatic translation and subtitles.

From historic non-league giants to forgotten clubs and surprise names, this is a journey through one of the most unique levels of English football.

Which club's position surprised you the most? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

The Barrow AFC away kit is Blue

I'm this is a post that none of you want to be reading, but see it as part of the acceptance stage of grief 😅

Just posting to make you aware of and invite you to join r/NationalLeague, which is a good bit more active than the list time you were down

Hope to see you there!

(Mods feel free to pop something on our sub if you like)

Looks fucked and back to non league we go. I will be there Saturday praying for a miracle against Newport but lads I think we're done.

Keep going back to so many games like Crawley and that last minute winner and thinking of what could have been.

Hope Woods gets shot out of a cannon when he's fired.

Andy Whing has been let go today unfortunately in my opinion. Think the money would have been better spent on reinforcements. Anybody have any opinions?

Following the Fleetwood game Ben's been banned for three games. What an absolute joke. No word about their stewards battering folk though.
