Just been reading about Coventry City and their ground problems, it appears that at the moment they cannot state where their home ground will be next season so, the league are threatening them with expulsion. If this were to happen could there be an extra promotion place from league 2 to league 1 and th conference to league 2 this season. Personally I hope Coventry sort everything out to carry on next year as I would not like to see any club( well ok Scunny don't count) suffer this way.

More likely only 3 relegations from the L1. That's what happened when Rushden went bust when we were in the Conference, Southport were reprieved.

But if they allowed an additional club to come up from the conference the medias favourite " small" club have a better chance of promotion, Salford.
