won the FA Trophy a month ago, But now it does not sound good,
all their players have apparently been released and they have asked for voluntary relegation

    Sad to hear and goes to show how money controls the game.
    Saw Leyton Orient relegated from League 1 today and couldn't quite believe it when they were fighting for promotion only last season and in the play offs.
    Sometimes that final push for glory is a step too far financially.

    Leyton Orient can still stay up i think.

    Leyton Orient are not relegated. If they beat Swindon in their last game and results go for them they will stay up.

    My apologies - was following events in between snoozing!
    Not looking good for them, even so but, yes, I was wrong.

    Shouldn't Colwyn Bay be relegated to Wales? How many Welsh teams are in the English system? I had thought it was only three or four. Seems strange that Prestatyn Town travel past an English system ground on their way west to play Bangor City

    As for North Ferriby, aren't they the village team owned by the same family as owns Hull City? Is there any particular reason why this has all happened in the past month?

    After Portsmouth bought the FA Cup with money they never had, would whoever lost the FA Trophy final have any complaints about this?

    It was Wrexham who lost to Ferriby, really enjoyable game.

    The Race Course was a decent stadium in the 80's and was way too big for the team.
  • How has this come about the mgr of nth Ferriby was on talk sport last week speaking a totally different story
  • Wrexham has a great history and tradition, very much so part of the football pyramid, had a very traumatic recent past I wish them well

    I posted this .. 'North Ferriby is up for sale .. struggling in the Conference North but Wembley winners sell it while its a bit hot .. the Alams are cutting their losses, the odds are that North Ferriby will slip back into obscurity, unfortunately ' a few days ago .. another example of a rich owner getting out and the deserted club having nothing else to fall back on

    My post above was obviously a facetious reference to IA's post and I welcome Wrexham into the English league system with open arms
