Not really been paying much attention to the Championship and League 2 but in the relegation spots in the Championship are Charlton (already down), Southampton and Norwich who will all have decent away followings next season and provide locality.

In League 2 the top 3 spots are Brentford, Exeter and Wycombe and noticed as well that Gillingham are handily placed in the play-offs so again would provide a bit of localness.

Norwich is a lot further away than many appreciate.  I think it's something to do with the fact a lot of people think of East Anglia of being more 'South' than 'North' even though Norwich itself is further north than Birmingham.

Equally irrelevant but just as interesting (if you're bored) is the startling find that Edinburgh is further west than Liverpool.

Ok, I didn't actually realise that Norwich was that far away but it has to be closer than Barnsley?

I've done the journey to Norfolk a couple of times. It's not too bad on the train actually, driving is simple enough but long and boring.

I know some Norwich fans and apparently only Ipswich have completely sold out their away end this season (3,000).. That gives an indication of how isolated they are geographically
