An interesting development occurred on Wednesday. The FA announced that all league records for Grassroots football, Steps 3 to 6 in men’s Non league football and Steps 3 to 7 of the Woman’s football pyramid be expunged for the 2019/20 season.

Many teams who were in line for promotion are extremely hacked off and are questioning why the PPG (points per game) system hasn’t been used. My own team Dudley Town would have been promoted under PPG but now have to accept the season has to be replayed.

The Premier League down to Steps 1 and 2 of the National League System inclusive it seems are either doing something different or are gauging response to the decision for the lower leagues?
