The big vote

[Blue_and_Gold]

I’m not celebrating yet, but fingers are well and truly crossed.....  If we do get the promotion, two thoughts have arrived.....   1.  That crowd of 4K against York Might well be in jeopardy, and the non-league world would be thoroughly jolted.....  and 2.  In this era of statue removal, quite rightly IMO, A NEW one of SC should be sculpted and erected in the middle of the Tuesday Market Place !!!!

Yet another just giving fund raising appeal then!

Bradford PA are predicting Lynn and York both promoted, many National clubs can not afford to have there players Covid tested after every play off game, at £125 a test, if you have 30 - 40 players, no income, wages to pay, I have to say I agree with that statement.

Yes, that's a big bill to commit your Club to.

If you do the sums, teams in 6th for example, would have to play 3 games to go up (if the current structure was used.) if they used the same protocol as the championship, that would mean paying for at least four rounds of testing. Assuming only 25 were tested, (players, coaches and minimal ground staff) that gives sum nice easy sums.

25*4*£125=£12,500 - not exactly pocket change.

If/when football restarts, that’s likely to be an additional monthly cost of running a team for the foreseeable, up and down the pyramid. How many clubs have that, without gate receipts? Can’t imagine it’s many.

No step 2 play-offs because it isn’t ‘elite’ football but step 1 is.

BREAKING NEWS: Official clarity from the Government will be sent to National League Chairman today confirming that NO explicit guidance was given from the DCMS to the FA with regards to Step 2 football, a footballer obtaining an income falls within the ‘Elite’ classification.
Time for the FA to accept they made a mistake & we all move on - the National League now need to swiftly put this right & move on to the all important safety & testing costs by working alongside their clubs

Sounds very much like someone has been caught out telling porkies.
