Of course it will be tougher, in every aspect. And so it should be. With Bishops' hopefully keeping the core of this squad I would expect us to have another good season challenging at the right end. Add a decent fa cup / trophy run... it may feel like the good days in the 90s Ps, providing we do go up !! According to Windy on the NPL pages, Newton Aycliffe have failed their ground grading. Done none of the work allegedly.

Will this be the norm. Any club tossing it off should be put in the wearside league. Let's see you pull the wool in that league.

I can accept a club who operates on a shoestring budget not being able to afford the work, but if you're paying out big wages then sorry I have no sympathy.

Agreed, any clubs that get promoted but clearly have no intention of making the necessary improvements (cough, North Shields, cough) need to be dropped multiple divisions, not just put back into the league they came from, as that's probably what they wanted anyway.

This isn’t really about affordability etc, it’s about clubs deciding where they want their money to go.

Mind makes a joke of the system.heres a team in playoff position and going to be kicked out of league.whole lot is a farce
What the fa need to do is not relegate clubs,but not allow them the next promotion neither.and if resign stick them to the bottom of pyramid as dont really want to be in it anyhow

Think folk are jumping the gun with regards to aycliffe Yeah just read the statement you'd put on mate.why leave it until last minute though? Also with regards the fa.how could they be so adamant to have play offs complete by May day yet allow a club an extra 3 1/2 weeks to get ground upto scratch after failing the deadline.and better still both clubs would be in same league!

Guessing exceptional circumstances due to the worst rain in years, at least they are trying unlike north shields. Could be interesting if aycliffe make the play offs

Simple solution is promote the next best team /s who want and are ready for promotion.
If that means 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th position so be it.
