Are we the worst team in English professional football?

I ask because I made this claim to somebody on Saturday and I wondered if I was telling the truth.
Obviously we can't know for sure whether other non-league teams are fully professional (we'll take the jokes as read, shall we?) but in the judgement of posters, are there likely to be any clubs below us in the Conference - or elsewhere in the pyramid - with fully professional squads?

Yep - Woking, Rushden, Halifax, Weymouth, Kettering, Boston United, and (as of next season) Truro City are all full time.
Some of the other clubs below us in the Conf (Alty, Northwich) have full-time players, as do some teams in Confs N & S.

I wondered about Weymouth. Who's currently in charge of bankrupting them again?
I'm not fussed about the occasional professional - it's fully professional clubs that interest me here. How does one find out these things?

At times I'm sure we've been the most un-professional team in English football but that isn't the same thing.

Fair play to the Truro City Chairman who unlike the Colne Dynamoes and Hornchurch Chairmans as not gone and jumped into the deepend without the new staduim etc in place and good luck to Truro I wont mind a away trip there sooner or later in the FAT!!!
