    I'd argue we have got a case we started the season knowing 2-7th is a play off place.

    If leagues one/two have them so should NL.

    Otherwise Stevenage have been rewarded for failure.

    Its not often I agree with some of your posts legs77, however in this instance you are bang on. We set off at the seasons start, all be it slightly behind due to the prolonged take over, but when fitness levels were reached and systems of play organised we started to look like a decent team with a good squad to select from, we like all clubs in the E F L were aware of what we were all playing for and the rewards for success and failure. No one knew about the Corona Virus then or its world wide implications when it struck, how can the rules be changed at the 90th minute to suit the clubs that are failing in the E F L. As you rightly say no matter that we had a full tank of steam when the season was halted it would be grossly unfair to deny Barrow promotion, just think how we would have felt if we were in their place.

    I believe that promotion and relegation issues should be decided on possibly points per game won maybe with goal differences being brought into play also, I think it might be fair to say that if the League Two clubs avoid the drop by default but accept the promotion possibly by default it may just give them licence to take this route further down the line.
