Ex Northern League clubs

[windy1970]

I thought I’d start a thread where any questions or points can be raised or answered.
The form of the 2 promoted clubs has improved and I know it’s been discussed before, but does anyone know what the current situation is in regards to ground development and passing the ground grading inspection for the 31st March deadline?
Now we all know what happened to North Shields last season and neither club has mentioned anything on their socials

Can't see what Ashington would possibly fail on.

I tweeted Newton Aycliffe and they’ve told me that they are developing their ground and will have it sorted in time. I don’t know if anyone has been over to their ground and can take some images of any developments

It’s looking pretty good for all the ex-NL across the NPL. Ashington and Newton Aycliffe are finding their feet at the new level. At the top end of the NPL1E it’s the top 3 places are covered by ex-NL and another is just outside the playoffs. In the NPL Prem, Morpeth have proved that they are a decent mid-table side and Marske have picked up in the past few weeks and are now outside the relegation zone

Infill on the perimeter barrier and new turnstiles.

Other than that we meet the requirements. We’re also looking to install LED floodlights to reduce our carbon footprint and save on energy bills.
