A fascinating read Eastsussex.

I wonder do you have a view of Stoke City's 1863 disputed date of origin? (e.g. see https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/...nalCode=fsas20 - sorry its just the abstract). If their origin is in fact 1868 as has been widely claimed, it would mean that if Wrexham could get promoted before Notts County, we could claim to be the oldest club in the EFL!
