It's all about merit.

As I have said recently on here, it is about process.

Ian Neale's previous incarnation of 'Town' declared an intent to return to being called 'Nuneaton Borough'.

That needed to be achieved on merit & through performance, to satisfy the FA & was driven by the supporters & successfully achieved by the Club...they followed the process through to a conclusion.

I have seen no such intent demonstrated by the new Club...Nuneaton Town FC CIC.

Therefore the 'Town' IMO is a brand new Club.

Another recent example of the FA's process being successfully followed through is BURY.

Their supporters passionately wanted to return to being called Bury & that was successfully achieved on merit through performance & achievement.

Just my thoughts!

Edit:

When the poll was held to name the new Club, from memory 'Nuneaton' was an option & the FA exerted their influence in the new Club being named 'Nuneaton Town'.

This enabled the new Club to follow on from the previous sequence of name changes.

That all makes sense to me.

There will always remain the opportunity for the new Club to return to being called 'Nuneaton Borough' but IMO until that is a declared intent the new Club is the 'Town' & not the 'Boro'.
