Need to speak with the furness premier league now try and change there saturday kick off times to maximise gate attendances need to get as many people onboard as possible. Literally have a pool of 300 lads there maybe even more that cant attend due to kick off clashes
All opinions expressed are my own , not here to cause kick off just enact debate.

One for the veterans, how many clubs who got voted out in the old system eventually made it back?
Popular side since '03.

As far as I am aware, Barrow are the first team to get back into the league having been voted out.

Selfishly this means good news for us. If Macc stay up then they could start next season with a hefty points deduction.

Plus Macc is a lot closer to home :D

Plus Macc have to produce a business plan for approval to the football authorities by 31st July to prove that they have the financial ability to meet all of their commitments during the 20/21 season.

If they were unable to do this they could still be expelled from the EFL.

'Voted out' and made it back? As far as I know/can remember, Accrington Stanley!!.
Although I think Stanley were not voted out-I think they didn't fulfil their fixtures-might be wrong on that though, memories not what it was.

Stanley went bust and resigned from the league mid-season. Fairly sure Barrow are the first "rejected" club to get back into the league.

"Fairly sure Barrow are the first "rejected" club to get back into the league." As well as being the first club to win the FA Trophy at both the old and the new Wembley.

Champagne? No. Sparkling Wine? No. Lager or Beer? No! I'm opening my Marsh's Sass which has been in the fridge for many a year. Don't care what it tastes like I'm 'avin' it. Well done Barra.
1972 - it's been a while but justice will be done.

Gillingham were not re-elected in 1938 but came back into the league in 1950. Quite a few others before the war. Barrow are the first to be ousted and return during the post war years.

I've got Sass too, waiting until "alleycat" come up from South Wales for one of our home games
We're all supporters on here. Let's leave the negative comments to the away fans

Barrow will NOT be in the bottom 5 and certainly won't need points deductions at other clubs... Positivity please.

Bottom 5 doesn't matter seeing as only 2 clubs get relegated from L2, plus it looks quite likely that Macclesfield will be one of them if they don't get thrown out before that. Also no club promoted to L2 has ever been relegated back to NL the following season.
