Don't know about you but I still keep an eye on what's going on in the National League, especially the fight for promotion with some big ex league clubs down there and only two promotion spots available, poor beggars.

No surprise who the top three are...

(Notts County, Wrexham & Chesterfield when posted)

I look because I have Wrexham in my lucky 15 to win the league. Clearly to be 20 points ahead of 8th is incredible really. I hope Wrexham win the league and county come up via play offs

I've just sat and watched our 3 play off game highlights back to back.
Absolutely fantastic.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

I just want Notts or anyone other than Wrexham to win the league. Interesting to see Barnet & Woking in play off spots.

Yes and absolutely thank feck for it, this season it's even more ruthless down there. The top half is the big three and then southern-dominated. The southern tinpot teams with any sort of reasonable budget have a much bigger pool of players to choose from than we would. Solihull have kept their squad together and are only just scraping into the play-offs places, Halifax are further back after a poor start and losing players to us and Barrow and I thought York would be an outside challenger for play-off spot but they've struggled a bit recently.

Top 2 sides on course for 100 points or more if they carry on their form until the end of the season.

Looks like one of those two will go up automatically but then the other is in the lottery of the playoffs and going up won’t be anything like guaranteed as the margins become so fine.

Any two of Wrexham, Southend, Notts County and Chesterfield and I’m happy. Be great if we can get rid of Harrogate and Crawley in this League as well, get it looking more like the “Football League” again and get shot of these non-league sides, replace them with proper clubs.

I know it’s unlikely but I’d prefer to lose a pointless club like Stevenage along with Crawley rather than Harrogate, mainly because Harrogate is significantly nearer to us.

If county go up automatically I don’t fancy Wrexham. As they proved last year, there’s so much pressure and with ‘get at them’ dinosaur Parkinson I think they’d be found out again.
