    Hello Non-League!

    I think that applies more to Kidderminster and Boston, Maidstone aren't the same club that were briefly in the League.

    Hello Non-League!

    Funny I assumed Solihull were bankrolled as well, as their progress since last season has been extraordinary and this is only their third season in the NL, but looking at their history before they were promoted, they were always a solid 6th-7th tier club both as Moor Green and in their present...

    League 2 Relegation Thread 2018/2019

    Leigh RMI had only one away fan at Dag & Red and Histon apparently had zero at Wrexham. So basically you have to be prepared for anything up to just OK when it comes to the non-ex-league teams' away followings.

    22/1/19 Lincolnshire away day double header extravaganza all in one match thread.

    Not sure I agree, it looked nasty but it was an accidental foot to the head collision in an attempt to get the ball in the air with no malicious intent, I think the crowd reaction was a bit OTT.

    2018-19 National League South

    That's a blow, they only had a 50-50 chance of making the play-offs at best, but hopefully the trip that fans of Notts County and other teams at the bottom of League 2 were dreading won't happen!

    League 2 Relegation Thread 2018/2019

    The fascinating thing is out of the two relegated sides, Carlisle's form almost exactly mirrored York's, no wins and 5 points from their first 21 games, then showing play-off form to almost survive - it was clearly one escape attempt too many for them. Conversely, York had 39 points from their...

    Sack Race - 2018/19

    Am I right in saying this sounds eerily like the problems with his previous spell when you went down to the Conference for the first time? There were even people who refused to renew season tickets/attend games while he was in charge, after he was kept on following your relegation - and that was...

    2020/21 General Match Thread

    Though if this is how they perform against a midtable side in the same division, I dread to think what the scoreline will be against a Premier League team in a similar position. I confidently predict it won't be another 9-0 though.

    2020/21 General Match Thread

    Fascinating how this League 1 relegation battle keeps changing, too many twists and turns to list here. I'll just add that even Accrington might get sucked in, that's some run Plymouth are on after they had only 20 points from 28 games recently, and the Luton fan who suggested Walsall might be...

    22/1/19 Lincolnshire away day double header extravaganza all in one match thread.

    Yep, I figured that, but I was wondering why? (Well Son of Cod already answered much of that.) I expected FGR to have a pretty big budget (they're basically another Crawley/ Fleetwood), but they still finished below you lot despite you having a dreadful season and Grimsby are still one of the...

    22/1/19 Lincolnshire away day double header extravaganza all in one match thread.

    How on earth have tiny Forest Green, despite being promoted one season later to the League than Grimsby, who beat them in the play-off final and did the double over them only last season, managed to totally outclass them in both matches this season? It's a disgrace if you think about it, no...

    Who Gets Relegated Alongside Ipswich Thread 18/19

    Bolton have just lost a tough game with WBA 2-0. Realistically it's four teams for three places, can't see anyone else getting dragged in. It's true that Wigan and Millwall are close-ish, but Wigan are solid enough at home and will be keen to avoid getting relegated from this division a third...

    Who Gets Relegated Alongside Ipswich Thread 18/19

    Thankfully Ipswich haven't lost any ground and are lucky the teams just above are so poor, they'd already be dead and buried many other seasons. At the moment I'd rate their chances of staying up higher than Notts County staying in League 2 (which admittedly isn't saying much). Need to be...

    League 2 Relegation Thread 2018/2019

    This is looking really serious for Notts County. The board should know if they don't escape relegation which is looking increasingly likely each week, the club could be stuck in non-league for many years without some kind of solid contingency plan that ensures they are sufficiently well prepared...

    League 2 Relegation Thread 2018/2019

    Surprised Cheltenham are back in it, they seemed to be really pulling clear and I'd pretty much ruled them out after their impressive win vs the Dons. Realistically it looks like it's between all the bottom 6 bar Yeovil.

    Green & White v Black & White, Hoops v Stripes 6 pointer relegation battle (Yeovil v Notts)

    How many points do you reckon it's going to take to stay up? I worked out that Notts took 26 points from their last 18 games from the same point last season, and I think they're going to have to at least equal that with a weaker team. Hmm...interesting times ahead...

    It's fine on my laptop, has posts up until 14 January. Well done anyway in getting most of the content restored, there was some posts on Monday in response to a thread I posted on which it would have been a shame to lose!

    The one saving grace is that Notts' run-in looks relatively kind from the end of March, Stevenage though tough will probably be pretty much out of the play-off race by then, and only MK Dons will likely have anything to play for. But before then it looks nightmarish, derbies, tons of...

    Sack Race - 2018/19

    Didn't know that, good news for York who can hopefully finally start moving forward. Funnily enough, even after such a terrible season the play-offs aren't a million miles away, start winning away and big and who knows? Could do a Bradford PA...
