Hell of a lot of rumours flying around based on teams competing in the NL playoffs that some of them may be removed from the playoffs after Tommy Widdrington suggested so in his post match interview yesterday. I've heard Bromley/Gateshead as one of the teams that could be removed due to the grounds not meeting EFL regulations. Not sure i've ever seen anything like it in my life and if ever we needed a reminder of how important it was that we didn't fall back into that cesspit.

Gateshead Council blamed as they wouldn't agree or confirm a ten yr lease on the stadium with the football club.....therefore against EFL requirements.

Odd that a team gets a bye instead of the team directly below the play offs not being bumped up, tin pot.

I remember Gateshead complicating our fixtures by their inability to get a game on costing me a series of unused advance rail tickets.

I'm glad they are missing out. I don't want them to resume our supposed rivalry which existed purely in their own heads, or heids.

So in another turn of events, Solihull were originally given the bye but it's now Altrincham given the bye and Solihull now play Halifax....

What a crazy situation! I have no feelings about Gateshead one way or another, but I do feel bad for their staff, players, and fans. All that work and effort to get into the playoffs with a place in the football league to fight for, and then this gets thrown at them!

Should never have gone down to the wire like this. There is no time at all in between the last game and the the fixtures being drawn up. Problem is if gateshead are in the same position next year. If they win the league only one team goes up.

Insane to get themselves into this position, surely they must have been aware of this issue for some time?
