Amazing were in them. Surprised not much detail emerging about the next match.

But then see tweets that Bromley have not legally agreed to rip up there pitch if promoted to grass.. Is this delaying proceedings and why Aldershot remain on Stand by. If Bromley are removed would we get a bye through to next weekend?

Anyone else got any news or theories?

I was wondering about their pitch. TBH, plastic should just be accepted given the way this season went for so many non league clubs. Truro City had to do a near 400 mile round trip for home games towards the end of the season, just to find the nearest ground with a 4G pitch.

This is from the Bromley forum...

It's Gateshead - they've been removed.

Solihull get a bye.

Which isn't the fair  in my opinion .The bye should go to the club who finished highest ie Alty

I actually expect the club to push back here.

Surely if Aldershot aren't admitted, we get the bye straigtht through to Bromley away - and Solihill play Halifax.

That's what I would have thought.
If Bromley go too, then it should be us at home to Moors and Barnet at home to Halifax for places at Wembley shouldn't it?

[Wilmslow Alty]

It's all confirmed. Solihull get the bye.

I've got no words to express how appalled I am if this is what happens.
Surely we're going to kick up a real stink about it?
It's a f***ing disgrace.

If this situation arose again next season the team in our position could have thrown the last game of the season to finish 5th rather than 4th and get the bye. Imagine if the team we were playing needed a point to avoid the drop. I assume that’s why they didn’t announce this until yesterday. They must have known for some time.

Farcical way to run a league.

We do seem to find an incredible number of different bureaucratic ways of not going up from this league!

They've changed their minds and we have a bye:

It really is a case of make it up as they go along

[Bath Alty]

Quite right to.

Does make the original announcement even more baffling though. Adhering to rules that hadn’t been well thought out was one thing but doing something stupid that was against your rules is unbelievably daft
