23 teams in division 2 teams seems too many. I wonder if the league will relegate 3 teams from division 2 in future to get numbers down. May need to happen especially as every season someone seems to come up from feeder leagues unlike some parts of the country I very much doubt that there’s going to be any applicants from the Northern Alliance for the next couple of seasons. The North Riding League has at least one ambitious club, but there may be another couple going forward and one of those is a Reserve team and needs the first team to be promoted. The Wearside will probably always have a healthy amount of applicants. I understand AFC Newbiggin (Northern Alliance) hope to have the infrastructure in place at for a push for promotion to the Northern League 2nd Division next season.

Fair point, they will probably end up at step 5 then so if marske are at step 5 that would have northern league 1 with 21 clubs and northern league 2 with 22 clubs That's the sort of thing that shouldn't be allowed either. NL1 going to 21 teams to accommodate Marske would be an absolute disgrace.

Err, Chris’s list of the 20 clubs includes Marske. And Div2 has 23. Promote another team from Div2 to get out to 22 teams and drop Marske to Step 7.

I wouldn't say you lose income when there's an odd number of teams. When there's an even number you still miss weeks because of vase and fa cup ties etc. If Marske end up in Division 1 next season then someone needs hanging. Absolute dung show laughing stock.

It wont be the league that decides it, will be a fa decision. If they are placed at division 1 it sets a dangerous predent

Northern League is 23-24 had 20 Clubs. 2 promoted to Step 4 & 1 relegated to Step 6, with 2 promoted from Step 6 gives Division 1 19 Clubs. Putting Marske in Division 1 returns Division 1 to 20 Clubs. Division 2 in 23-24 had 22 Clubs. 2 promoted to Division 1, 1 relegated to Step 7, with 3 promoted from Step 7 & 1 relegated from Division 1 leaves Division 2 at 23 Clubs. The FA Holy Grail is for all leagues to run at 20 Clubs, leaving Washington & West End at risk of relegation to Step 7, along with Brandon & Division 2 then running with 21 Clubs If another team is relegated from division 2 to accommodate Marske then I would expect appeals from Washington and West end. Just can’t understand how a team who resigned not even 6months ago can be placed at step 5or6. If they are jumping into bed with Redcar Newmarket don’t they have to start in the lower clubs position?. Or is that rule not there now?

If they are jumping into bed with Redcar Newmarket don’t they have to start in the lower clubs position?. Or is that rule not there now? No club will be relegated from any league across step 5 or 6 to accommodate Marske or potentially Nuneaton or any of the other clubs who resigned through the season. They’re entitled to reapply within the rules to rejoin 2 steps below if there’s space and if there’s no space step 6.Those are the FA rules, so those who want them binned down to the Crook & District league or whatever the lowest rung of the ladder, hopefully their club doesn’t hit the hard times at some point and expect their club to be treated fairly! What do people want? Crucifixion of everyone involved with Marske ffs
