Quoted from KingstonMariner


Thought it meant fewer teams would go down from League One and still four up from League Two, so no affect on promotion/relegation from/to the National League.


Correct, the EFL confirmed this today.


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

Then there would only be 23 teams in League Two next season.

And the EFL statement doesn't mention anything about promotion/relegation between League Two & the National League if Bury were expelled.

Not if fewer teams get relegated!

Bury get binned: 3 down 4 up.
Bury and Bolton get binned: 2 down 4 up.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

No,

There are 24 teams in League Two this season. 4 are promoted to L1. 2 are relegated to NL. That leaves 18. 3 teams are relegated from L1 (with Bury expelled) & 2 promoted from NL. Makes 23.

The EFL have been deliberately vague about League 2 > National League promotion/relegation. Almost like they are contemplating the idea of a 22 team L2 next season if both Bury & Bolton are expelled.

Thought you meant League One. Even though you did say League Two, I wasn't properly paying attention.

I would assume that for a league to have its numbers reduced it would have to be voted on ( in Portugal) by the clubs themselves, cannot see them agreeing to having less home matches as that will be a reduction in revenue.

BBC stats say their latest 5-0 is the first time a side has lost by 5 goals or more in three consecutive games in 90 years!
