Turkey for Xmas was in reference to only one relegation from League 2.  Not the reinstatement of Bury, which I agree was a ridiculous proposal.

Personally I think the relegation places should have been kept as they are and an extra team promoted from the Conference.  This wouldn't have happened as it would have given more support for 3 up-3 down.



This is a slap in the face for those Conference teams that finish in what would have been play-off positions. If this had happened in our last season in the Conference then we wouldn't have got back in the Football League that season.

I don't see why anyone expected anything else. There are numerous precedents and it's standard practice when a team is expunged from a league.

1 down rather than 3 up effectively rewards failure but doing otherwise is like turkeys voting for Christmas!

Eh? Surely two still go up from the Conference, otherwise the EFL would only have 71 teams? Nothing will change regards Conference promotion, will it?
