what about Beesknees??? formally SWAPO formally Crown Services

Updated for the 2010-2011 season

so Accies v Polska today was like Villa v Everton - the oldest fixture in the league?

think the niffy rangers one is wrong. folded the reserves in 2005 but i believe still had a team.

They resigned as one club and reapplied as a new club. This was not simply a change of name which happened to several other clubs

Still here!! lol

It seems an awful lot lot longer than that..

so the average life span of an Alliance club is just under 7 years

So which one's the shortest?

weren't Aylestone Lounge Bar done by about February last year which was around 5 months? And I'm not sure if Sheridan United affiliated or not but if they did they folded before the constitution so that was a matter of weeks!
