I played in Germany.

Bundesliga 1b Sud & West (I think)

Munich were in the same league as Bonn and Cologne...

Scarily fast minibus driving on the Autobahn!

Ealing began life in London One (Level 5) in 1987-88 but were promoted as champions to what was then called Area League South. They were relegated after one season alongside Sidcup & Stroud, while Camborne finished third behind Lydney & Havant.
Ealing returned twice to National league 4 South on two more occasions and managed to stay up for another season. During these three visits they were one of the only true amateur teams playing semi pro teams. Most memorable win being against a London Welsh team away.
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.

Slightly off topic, but kind of the same thing. Which are the closest, and furthest away "local" derbies?
Cornish Pirates nearest opponent is Hartpury - 228 miles.

I believe the closest in the National Leagues is the Sheffield derby which just pips London Welsh v Barnes.

Next season the closest will be London Scottish v Richmond at 0 miles (obviously).

The Manchester derby between Sale & Sedgley and the north Bristol derby between Clifton & Dings Crusaders will be fairly close (as well as Cambourne v Redruth as the closest "not the same city" derby) but I think Sheffield still wins it.

Furthest "closest game" for next season is I think either Plymouth Albion v Dings Crusaders or possibly Moseley vs one of the Bristol clubs. 

CAMBORNE!!!

Sorry I always make that mistake, and must have been to Cornwall close to 80 times!
