Conference system does - be very funny if we bypassed them via playoffs.

Don't clubs have provide financial documents to prove they won't go under in all 3 divisions?

Is that correct - I'm sure that when Boston dropped out of L2 they by-passed the conference and went to the Evostick?

They bypassed National and dropped to North.

I saw both Barrow and Workington play in 4th Division games at Edgeley Park circa 1960.

I have watched Southport play league football many years ago when I was a pup

Wonder what happened to Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic or even Hartlepools United  ;D

Survived by a point (0.02 if you do it on PPG) ; after two more deducted.

Have to provided a business plan to EFL by July 31st.

Long term they are still buggered without a change in owner mind.

Also much as we all dislike Macc, Stevenage had 3 wins out of 36 which is about as bad as us in our Conference North relegation season, clearly they fully deserved to go down despite all their lobbying. What is clear what with Bury & Macc the EFL really need to get their governance in proper order.

I always found Stevenage to be one of the unfriendliest and miserable clubs to visit. Their stewards were utter arse*oles too, one occasion we arrived about 10 mins after kick off to find the away turnstiles closed, stewards let us in, clearly after pocketing our entrance money which between us didn't add up to the correct amount, another year after a reprieve from relegation we were slated by a pair of them asking "who's going to save you this year then?" Dismal, miserable new town dump.

I've always enjoyed my work visits to Stevenage although from the Wetherspoons you can watch the rats running around outside of an evening

Rats ? That brings us neatly back to Macclesfield. A business plan sounds like a novel idea. Of course, no matter what pie in the sky they serve up to the EFL, it'll bear no relation to how the club is really being run - ie into the ground.
