Unbelievable farce - but justice prevails in the end. Still dreadful for Gateshead fans.

How risible would it be if Bromley were turfed out now!
Can you imagine the outcry if we got a bye to Wembley?! 😉

By the way, is the Bromley game being televised on TNT?

If ANYONE at the National League had sat back and thought about it, surely it would have been better to put the teams already through on the Saturday, and move the other one over to the Sunday.

Either way, it's better than it was a few hours ago.

Looking at the article on the BBC website it appears the EFL rejected Gateshead,The National League were happy for them to be promoted if they won the play offs.

What a bizarre day but the National League eventually got to the right decision in the end. Feel for Gateshead but the rules & deadlines are clear.

A full week to prep now for Bromley & some extra recovery time for the players. Perfect.

One win for our fourth trip to Wembley. What a prospect.

It seems that the council want to sell the stadium as part of its cost cutting measures and couldnt therefore guarantee that the future new owners would provide a 10 year lease.
This has been ongoing for 2 years, so why on earth did it take until now for EFL to rule on their appeal,.. ?
Feel for Gateshead fans, imagine if boot were on our foot    :-\

So with Gateshead not satisfying the EFL criteria I take it the JDS does. Has the EFL only just decided this? I take it Trafford Council weren't consulted.

We've got a very long lease on the JDS haven't we? More like ninety odd rather than less than ten.

Perhaps the team and supporters coach park midway between the two grounds and await final confirmation. 😂😂😂

Yes. We meet EFL entry requirements but would need to do certain things before the first game and during the season.
