Interesting to note that the Stockton and Brackley goalkeepers came up for corners in the Non-League finals when they were losing and did absolutely nothing.
In fact, Brackley's 90+5 minute equaliser occurred after their goalkeeper had forlornly trotted back to his goal.

Lewis Wright joins them too. Both over rated and were very pedestrian in their time with us.

We might not be too fussed about "decent pitch" either!

Fair comment, as they were relegated from the Welsh Premier League at the end of last season

Nonetheless that's now about half a dozen players who've moved from England to Wales in the last week or so, there must be something attractive about playing over the border, it's either the money, the European football, or the ..... no, I'd better not, that would be stereotypical...

This explains why the likes of Llandudno have signed players from the English pyramid, presumably offering very decent wages in return. A gamble and I dare say they have calculated the risks versus the potential rewards.
