I thought that initially, but no, they weren't a league side back then. They weren't a league side for long, but long enough to embarrass us!

Southport were the last, I think that's how Wigan got into the league. No idea on the other.

Yes they did. I’m about to take off on a 2.5 hour flight so the answer is Barrow. Cumbrian derby in the conference when Workington joined them
