Nickname: The R's

The Case For Them

Here is the argument for Brightlingsea Regent: England, England FA Trophy, and a ground called North Road, Brightlingsea. A second team should give you something your first one cannot, and this is a different country's whole weather system.

Something to defend
The cabinet is not empty: Isthmian League and Eastern Counties League. Small enough to recite from memory, big enough to argue about in a pub.
Home is home
North Road, Brightlingsea is the address. Learn the walk from the station to the turnstile and you have most of what supporting a club actually is.
You get a nickname
Known as The R's. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.
Worth the journey
Nearest airport is London Southend Airport (SEN), roughly 36km out. This is not a casual away day, which is precisely why the people who do it take it seriously.
