Big news. Knowing our luck, we'll finish 4th or 5th and lose to a team finishing 7th!

Happy with this new format which rewards the teams finishing higher with a home tie.

I know it's improving our chances but that means it would have been possible for Barrow (who got 75 points) to be promoted instead of Tranmere (who got 95 points).

Dropping the home and away element as happens with the Northern Premier and its feeders now. Difference being that more teams are involved with the league becoming 'every one a winner' (of sorts) - Mr Tinkerman has developed this.

According to the BBC, it doesn't get voted on until the AGM on June 10th!

Bad move. Don't agree with it in principal. But if it benefits us I won't complain.

Crap move.

In the season we finished 2nd with 98 pts, who finished 7th with how many points? For me top 2 should be promoted auto. 3rd and 4th place should play off for one more spot against 21 st 22nd team in the second. With a possible 3 up. The proposal rewards a 7th place team, which should not happen.
