More on FA Trophy

Bloody Hell, why???

Hebburn Town and Consett asked the FA to postpone it. Probably as they might never get to Wembley again and want their fans there.

It's been postponed. No news on when til and whether we still have to play our semi next week.

The final is postponed because they want fans to attend. The semi final was always going to be behind closed doors so I'd imagine it'll take place as planned

Get yourself ready for the league being suspended to.

I have said it loads why not delay season till Dec/Jan in all leagues to fit in with Qatar 2022, its not ideal I know but giving yourself more time is the senisible option.

Yep, but with more time to get it played, Notts/Harrogate might ask for a more sensible date. Although it suits Notts more next week than Harrogate, despite Ardley's protestations.

Who's to say there won't be another outbreak and/or lockdown? My advice would be 'play games while you can' with the future being as uncertain as it is.

That's why I think we'll keep it at the current date. It's in Notts' favour. Harrogate haven't got a big enough squad to rotate so they will be risking injury and fatigue. If they have a bruising couple of games, they may even concede but I'm going to imagine after the about turn the FA did to let Harrogate back in, it may be a play or quit deal for them

The NL agreed to Oct as they would have fans in the ground that is not going to happen now.

I keep saying this WHO is going to pay the wages ??

Bare in mind League 1 downwards dont have big sponsorship deals.

What if Harrogate ask for the semi to be changed? They have a good reason and I am sure that if it was us we would be asking.

I think its nailed on they will do that and the FA will probably accept it.
