Title: NLN and NLS play offs
Post by: Saughall Robin on March 12, 2021, 05:32:57 PM: Seems the FA have ruled against the proposal.
They say the leagues voted for null and void and must stick with that.
No mention of promotion and relegation between the EFL and our league being affected so we can assume it will carry on as usual.
PS. I think 🤔

After Dover are removed, they'll run with 22 clubs next season - and potentially only 2 relegation spots.

The lawyers will be on stage shortly

I expect lawyers will get involved (they already have been on Dorking Wanderers' behalf), but South Shields ended up with £200,000 costs after losing their case that the season should not be null and voided last year. That will make many clubs think twice.
