I've read a couple of articles on Twitter which mention that a reprieve for Ebbsfleet is being looked at. That will bugger up the NLS fixtures if they do get reprieved!!

What ever they decide clubs in our league or the national league are going to miss out on a home game this coming season.
I actually thought they way the FA handled the promotion and relegation or lack of it in some cases at the end of last season was a mess, but that's in the past now and football moves on.

I mentioned at the close of last season that were Macclesfield to be relegated (in place of bottom team Stevenage), they would appeal the points deduction and if unsuccessful, Ebbsfleet could be reprieved.
However, surely all clubs are mandated to their appointed league divisions at this late stage? Step three kicks off on Saturday!

I would have thought so, but like i said earlier i thought the promotion and relegation or lack of it in some cases was a total mess by the football authorities.
