Barrow's promotion

[Methuselah]

I would just like to say that if Barrow didn't get promotion this season by events totally outside their control, it would be the greatest injustice since they got voted out of the Football League. The other teams need to realise that we are the best team by far and have been for most of the season.The lads play attractive football which they cannot match, so they resort to pushing our players and grabbing them when they are going to head the ball.
I would just like to say give Ian Evatt and all the lads all the support you can.I for one will carry on supporting them no matter what happens.I just hope we manage to hang on to Ian and the lads so come on everyone lets carry on next season if the injustice happens and prove to all the doubters what a great team Barrow has become under the guidance of Ian Evatt, the players and the board.

Bad heading at this stage.

But if AFC Faylde don't get relegated it will be a bigger injustice, do you not think?

Decision the leagues have to make is-
Reward teams who deserve to be relegated and void.
Or award on current standings and reward teams who've achieved their place over 75% of the season played.

Another alternative is to install Barrow in the league on points per game to take the place of Bury.
Then you promote the top team in each division to even up the numbers.

Seems to be a lot of people clinging onto hope with the Bury situation; can anyone show me the quote where the football league say they need a team to “replace” Bury next season?

[Hadrian]

The vacancy is in League One and there is no obvious candidate for one-off promotion from League Two.

There is no way the EFL will start a season with an odd number of teams in the leagues, no way!!

[Moribund]

They won't need to if Macclesfield go bust.

[Van Der Nipper]

They won't need to if Macclesfield go bust.

But then they would be 2 clubs short which they won't allow

Some clubs’ Chairmen are now starting to voice their opinions on getting the league finished through football and seem really determined to get their points across, instead of just accepting that football this season is done. Like this matters now?
The National League need to provide clarification (if needed to back up yesterdays news) and end it now. If we don’t get promoted based upon PPG, so be it. It would be terribly / typical luck for us and we will never see a chance like this again (in fact I fear we will go the other way) but football doesn't matter right now and wont for many months to come.

[Methuselah]

It seems to me that the National League teams doing most of the shouting are the ones who have not managed their finances properly a point hinted at by Ian Evatt.You could hear the frustration in his voice during his interview with Sky.I just hope we can keep hold of him,because here is a man who.built a winning team using young mainly unknown players on a shoestring budget .
