We can all go to Bettys Tea Rooms-how very civilised.
I presume though,Harrogate's repreive will depend on the outcome of Northwich's appeal??

Somehow I don't think these allocations will be final. The "new" Chester and Farsley Celtic have not been allocated a spot in the Evo-Stik (Prem or Div 1 S/N). Also, Northwich are sure to appeal against their demotion .....

As for your trip to Harrogate, I was looking forward to our trip there. Not so much the ground (which I have got nothing against, not even the slope!), but I was looking forward to the Wetherby Whaler on the way. Certainly worth getting off the A1 a little earlier and stopping off at this excellent chippy in Wetherby!

It does say at the bottom of the page they will be subject to change but the provisional allocations give us some idea.  I thought Vauxhall Motors were going down along with Harrogate but it looks like the league are doing a three out four in system to make the numbers back up to twenty two.

Perhaps they know that a league club is about to go belly up.

Could be a good season to get out of this league! Southport and Fleetwood gone, no Conference Premier clubs relegated into it and three clubs reprieved from relegation ( Harrogate, Vauxhall Motors and Worcester City). Lets go for it!!!!

By the way, does anyone know what's happening to the reformed Chester City club as they are not mentioned in any of the lists down to Evo-stick North. Have they become so unstuck that they are having to start even lower?

The North does look a little more inviting than our previous visit, Playoffs are our first target however (after survival.) To expect to romp through is a little of a over estimate of the lack of difference between Unidump and Conf North.
So many people have come and gone, their faces fade as the years go by.
Yet I still recall as I wander on, as clear as the sun in the summer sky.

The travelling looks like we are set for a few trips to the Midlands more than anywhere else with the couple of long trips to Blyth and Workington but everything else is pretty central or North West with a couple of yorkies in there too.

From a personal point of view, i can more easily get to a lot of these grounds next year.

The lack of conf Prem sides is an obvious bonus but i suppose the likes of Alfreton, Droyelsden, Workington, Telford and big spenders Corby and the 26 must not be counted out too.

The bottom two sides in Blue Square North - Vauxhall Motors and Harrogate - both get reprieves from relegation.

The bottom two sides in Blue Square South - Weston Super Mare and Weymouth - are both relegated.

If I was a Weston Super Mare fan I'd be feeling particularly hard done by right now. Surely the fairest solution would be to relegate Weymouth and Harrogate, reprieve Weston Super Mare and Vauxhall Motors and perhaps switch Forest Green north to keep the two leagues equal in size.

5 teams over North & South finished in relegation positions. Farsley were thrown out mid-season, taking up another place.

Northwich being thrown out of North, means the reprieve is done in the same division - Vauxhall Motors.
Chester & Grays going bust/resigning in the step above, means the reprieves are done across the step on a points-per-game basis - Worcester (40 points from 42 games) and Harrogate (30 from 40) beat WSM (23 from 42).
I create YouTube videos (BUFC/FM/CM 01-02), and stream Football Manager on Twitch as BostonUnitedFM.
