Both teams are grasping for any straws to clutch to stop relegation... they are 'losers' in more ways than one but mainly for being worst teams in their Div and as such lost too many & finished bottom...
Now despite knowing the rules & EFL agreeing teams can go down whilst teams go up from NL (despite no NL relegation as all Divs below step1 non-lge being voided) they want to change the rules now as they are in bottom two... another reason for classification 'losers!'
They even now argue maybe two come up but four go down next season (none this) - see below comment from bbc article... if somehow this change happened to save them would they then argue again next season if in bottom four... again, what losers... man up & take relegation like a proper club would... rules are rules & both knew the score!
"You've either got to say 'no relegation from the EFL and, sorry, National League clubs can't come up' or maybe they can come up and four go down next year." - taken from below...
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57022942In short, both knew rules that EFL agreed with NL re ups/downs... you cannot change the rules just because they now effect you... bottom line is you're getting relegated because you were crap on the field just as you are now crap & embarrassing losers off the field!
