National League looks fairly weak now. In the past there always seemed to be a bottleneck of bankrolled or quality teams trying to get out. Now there seems to be more traditional non league clubs in the play-off spots and the ex-league clubs all have off the field issues.

I wouldn't be surprised if Sutton and FGR won promotion next year.

It wouldn't surprise me if FGR are a season away from playing in the NLS. This is back to back relegations.

I don't doubt Dale will chuck more money at it.

Sutton will go up if they keep that team.

Has it ever happened since the inception of 2 up, 2 down, that both relegated teams have been promoted at the first time of asking? Personally, I think FGR’s problems are largely that Dale Vince is losing interest, and I think this might be the last we ever see of the veggies as an EFL club.

As ever, this is always the big question of heavily bankrolled clubs; what happens when the sugar-daddy stops sugar-daddying? Sometimes there’s a decent succession plan - Bournemouth are still doing alright some 13 years after they were bought by Maxim Demin and Brighton will almost certainly fine when Tony Bloom eventually hands over the keys to the Amex, but there are no shortage of examples where the ending isn’t so happy; see Rushden & Diamonds, Gretna and, oh, Scunny, for example.

Vince has built Forest Green so prominently in his image, or the image of his commercial interests, that I would imagine potential buyers will be very few and far between when he decides to give them up.

Dale Mince said that FGR would be in the Championship in 5 years time.  That was about 5 years ago.

It is likely to get his wish - but in reverse. Maybe some obscure lower non-league championship

“I hope it hurts them as much as it hurts me…”

Throwing the players under the bus then.

It’s incredible that a team who were in L1 last season, and spent a fortune on agents this season, could be adrift at the bottom like this.

There must have been some truly abysmal retention and recruitment decisions. They went through three managers too didn’t they?
