The non league element of the pyramid is seemingly in a mess, financially and organisationally.

Whilst I agree to an extent regarding the reasons for the appeal I can’t help but think it’s a huge straw clutch. We deserve to go down, in fact, it may actually be easier for us to make some of those changes intimated by the new owners in the conference...

I can’t see the appeal being won and Stockwood’s response almost sounds like they’re not really arsed, was this instigated by the outgoing board?

I do believe the integrity of the conference has been comprised this year through their own poor decisions and mismanagement, teams have exploited furlough schemes and the like which I also find, on a personal level quite dodgy and surely needs looking in to but we know nothing will happen.

I’ve looked at the positives to some extent; we go down, we regroup and rebrand, we build a squad that has belief and wins more games than it loses, in turn attracting the fans back and we try and push on, capitalising on the fact half the teams have seemingly just been playing friendlies this year...

That's the impression I get. I think they have washed their hands of the entire previous regime and want them to own our relegation. I think the appeal was started by Philip Day and they have inherited the situation.

Great if it comes off, but we know that won't happen and the new owners are planning the future in non league and it won't include Mr Day once the transition is complete.

You never know, if Torquay get promoted then clubs might not fancy the journey and vote to save us.










Now that , ladies, gentlemen,  is how you clutch at straws. 😎

I see Jason Stockwood says they will abstain from voting about relegation,funny that as we are not a efl  club any more we have no voting rights.We don’t even go into the meeting all we  are there for is formally discharged from the league.

Would teams vote for 2 more home league games if fans are let in. More income after this last year of nothing.
