Can see them just about scrapping 4 teams for the north, don't think Chester or Gateshead will try.

One for you Darren, if as per news items BorehamWood are struggling financially, why the hell are they going into the NL playoffs.  Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me!

I can't see Gateshead fancying it either and Chester clearly don't have much cash. I'm very surprised Boreham Wood are taking part, but they will get some TV money (could happen at step 2 if BT are interested) so that will help. I guess they will also see it as there only real chance of promotion. I know they got to the final 2 years ago, but then they lost players and nearly went down. I can see the same happening again so why not give it a go.

The usual dithering and non-decision making by the useless NL administration is the problem, not the government.

That is why I said it shouldn't be an issue. They league have made a mess out of this from the start. I think they wanted to add that caveat just in case things change, but I also think they want to stop the play-offs from happening. What hasn't been announced is what happens if one of the Step 2 leagues don't get enough teams wanting to compete and the other one doesn't. Will they just promote the 2nd, will they only allow just the one league to have a 2nd promotion place, or stop both again? So many questions without answers at the moment. I would imagine they will look to sort out Step 1 first as well before even worrying about Step 2.

Just Play the League 2 Play offs and cancel the rest. I’m over the moon with that game! Watching C********m bottle the play-offs is good, but watching it against your Uni town? Priceless.

Up the Teyn! To think I’ve been Keith Curle out all season...

Jonte Smith started for C********m and Ben Seymour playing for Exeter in their play-off game. I didn’t think either of them looked good enough for League 2 football when they were at City.

If anyone wants a laugh this morning, here are the highlights from C********m Northampton. Some world class defending for the second and third goals:

Guys, although a die hard city fan and would not go to a C********m game you have to admire them for the way that they have gone up (and down) the leagues with a small budget compared to FGR.

i will congratulate them for getting so far
