Managing Director Cheltenham Saracens – Common sense prevails but on what basis? The Non-League scene in the summer has been dominated by the Cinderford Town and Evesham United affair where Cinderford Town were forced by the FA to take promotion to the Southern League Premier Division. After initially deciding they did not want to be promoted the Are you thinking about moving? FA decreed that Cinderford must play in the higher level next season despite the club’s request to stay in the Southern League South & West Division One. The decision came after Evesham United won their appeal against the decision to move them into the Northern League, a Whether you are thinking about selling or consequence of Cinderford’s decision to refuse promotion. The FA Appeal Board decided that the Leagues Committee failed to apply the regulation relevant to clubs being promoted from letting, contact us today for an up to date Step 4 to Step 3 as winners of their division and, in particular, that accepting an application for market appraisal of your home, or nd us Deborah Reay non-promotion was not an option available to the League Committee.

How this decision sits in terms of consistency with [email protected] the Cinderford position escapes me but it would have been a major blow to the already club starved Hellenic League to have lost another club. Overall allowing Cheltenham to stay down is a pragmatic solution even if not ideal. Club’s should not be picking and choosing what division richardjames.info to play in and there will be a few irritated clubs in Division One West who will be somewhat Editorial & RWBTFC News irritated if Cheltenham were to win Division One West this season but in my view allowing Cheltenham to remain in Division One West was the least worst solution to the issue.
