There is a difference in my opinion, although it's got loads better. I played at that level many years ago now and it was shite, glorified parks with the odd waster who had been with a football league club who could play but didn't give a shit. The only way that the standard will improve is if more money is pumped into the game, that means more interest, more fans supporting the league. Saying that, the Northern clubs seem to have a fair few non league stalwarts playing for them who cost a few quid. When i was playing you got £80.
