Then what happens, does an extra team come up from league 2 come the end of the season or do they remove a relegation spot from League 1?

Normally the latter I believe certainly was in 1967 when town were relegated by something ridiculous like 0.08 of a goal with Mansfield who came fourth to bottom staying up and  Peterborough relegated for financial irregularities (no change there!!).

Five will come up from our division should Bury go.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Are you sure about that Jock?

Wouldn't they just relegate the bottom three ( with Bury being the fourth team not being in League 1 next season ) then that'd mean only four up still

I can't imagine anyone finishing in 20th place being too happy about being relegated?

4 up but only 3 down from league 1?

That's my feeling

I can't imagine they'd lose Bury and then have four other teams relegated additionally, which is what Jock thinks could happen ( if five teams were to be promoted like he suggests )

As much as I would like five from our division to go up, this is the fairest way to do it in my opinion should it happen.



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I was told a week or so back that there would be 5 promoted from League 2 next season if they were expelled but surely that won't be the case as the that would mean the team finishing 20th would be relegated which is totally wrong.

They already announced that in the event of Bury going under, league one would be played as a 23 team league, and 5 would go up from league 2 this season.
Assume that means 3 up from the conference as well
