So, the two teams relegated from National-North are in the play-off final.
Two teams promoted (Berkhamsted & Long Eaton) have been relegated.

Interesting to see that 2 of the 4 clubs relegated from SLP-Central in the 2022/23 season have been relegated again (Hednesford and Rushden). while another (Bedford) are in the play-off final to return to SLP-Central. Kings Langley finished mid table.

To highlight how transient football is. Rushden only missed out (on GD) of the play-offs in 2021/22 due to a last game defeat to Nuneaton Borough. So, from being close to level 6 then now find themselves at level 9. I wonder if they are now paying for the 21/22 season?

Couldn't happen to a nicer outfit.

I generally enjoyed my trips to Boston. I did not enjoy my trips to Brackley.

Hi sauce
i too have some fond memories of Boston
think the first time our paths crossed was the 58/9 season after the non lge scene had been reformed.
we got hammered there 6-1 going on memory
beat them in the return fixture 1-0 night game 4500 turned out
think a little winger called Jackie Stewart got the winner.
with the *C & B end going wild

* thats when it was probably the best home end in the non lge game

happy days ;-)
sadly no more

i remember getting barred from Boston’s club because I hadn’t kept the tiny ticket stub handed over at the turnstile. Ended up sitting in the car park with a Vimto and bag of crisps.

I think I went to Boston twice.
Last one being the playoff position playoff.

The first one tarred my view of Boston. The actions of Evans and then asking the chairman for a voucher as game ended at half time (I read their ground rules at the ground) only to be told “you are from Nuneaton; what would you know”.

The arse was later banned for life from being involved with football.
How the former (banned for two years) has made a career in football is beyond me.

They cheated their way to the FL and (at the time) most supporters saw no problem with it.

Moor Green was better-had my first ever cheesy chips there.

What a shame that FC Car Park will have to wait another year.

Hurts, going out on pens, doesn't it?

I would like to have seen Solihull promoted. The reaction of B;ham fans knowing Solihull were a promotion/relegation away. As it is, the gap is the same as Boro were to Coventry once.

Reminds me when reality hit my sister in law. Manchester City vs Macclesfield in a league game........what happened to those two clubs :)(

Macclesfield lose at home to marine in front of a paltry (compared to boro) 5,,329

Bedford return to SL-Prem after one season beating Waltham Abbey 2-1 (2,052)
Market Harborough win at Anstey Nomads (1,128)

Loads of others; but these semi connected to the old Boro.
