    Step 4 Promotion and the Points per Game Place

    A win for Hyde Utd last night has made a big step towards the Northern Prem North clubs taking the direct 3rd place spot. It's now a straight fight between the NPN and the Southern East, which both have a 42 game season. Hyde and Scarborough are on 86 points each, Hyde with 2 to play and...

    Step 4 Promotion and the Points per Game Place

    So after the weekend & early week matches a couple of draw have seen Hyde drop into 3rd in the Northern Prem North, with Scarborough's win tonight putting them into 2nd place. Hartley Witney got a win at the weekend in the Southern League East, so they're on 76 points from 38 games compared to...

    Step 4 Promotion and the Points per Game Place

    Many of you might know that with the restructuring around the new step 3 'Midlands' division, there's an intriguing direct promotion place from step 4 to 3 on offer to the step 4 team finishing 3rd in their league with the best points per game (PPG) In an idle half hour this morning, I thought...

    County Cups 2015-16

    Rule change in 2014/15 means that Conference National League teams enter in the Senior Cup rather than the Challenge Trophy, which starts with National North. This was Barrow's first season back in the Senior Cup then since the 1970s, though both equal wastes of time - we were fined £75 a few...

    Matchday thread - 11/08/15

    We were pretty lucky to win on Saturday against Dover, but we improved during the match. It looked like a few of players who've stepped up from the Conf North need to get used to the pace of the game. I think that we're being over-estimated a little in general tbh and wouldn't expect more than a...

    Grimsby Town - Operation Promotion

    It's like any move up from one league to the next. For every Charlie Austin who can do it there's a Sylvain Ebanks-Blake who can't.

    FGR stadium plans unveiled

    Let's ignore for a second the fact that this makes little footballing sense. A simple question: how is building an 'Eco Park' at a motorway junction in any way a 'green' move? It forces staff who work at the park, people going to matches, and people using the sports facilities to drive. You can...

    2015/16 Pre Season Friendles Thread

    Fairly uninspiring at the moment for Barrow: Sat 4th Furness Select XI (A) ko 2pm (traditional opener against a 'Best Eleven' of local players) Sat 11th Kendal Town (A) ko 2pm Wed 15th Lancaster (A) ko 7.30pm Sat 18th Harrogate Town (A) ko 3pm Tue 21st Chorley (A) ko 7.45pm Hoping for at least...

    Should the Play-Offs be scrapped?

    I'm not sure many people would disagree with those claims; rather, it's why on earth you'd consider a more fluid and competitive pyramid engaging more clubs and a wider range of communities to be a bad thing??

    Darlington FC 15/16

    Looking forward to seeing Darlington progress. The Northern Prem is going to be a cracker this year!

    Should the Play-Offs be scrapped?

    What's been smart about the Conference-League relationship is that it's been allowed to grow over time. I think in 1999 the gap in both quality of football but also in the feel of the game between League Two and the Conference meant that this stance made sense. In the last 15 years the gap has...
