        In NCEL division 1 Grimsby Borough could only draw with Shirebrook Town which now makes Yorkshire Amateur v Eccleshill United a huge game on Monday night. Winner of that game will go up, if it's a draw then Amateur would be promoted if Grimsby drop points at home to East Yorkshire Carnegie (which it has to be said is not highly likely)

          MK Dons are down. So Shrewsbury don't get to do the satisfying deed of relegating them next week.

              Not quite safe yet due to Wigan’s more than deserved equaliser but still two games to play (there is a rearranged game at Doncaster on Tuesday night) and one point required, I think. If that happens then Franchise’s relegation can be properly celebrated, though it was nice to be with the travelling Dons support when it was confirmed.

Maldon and Tiptree, meanwhile, appear to have broken up early for the summer and have lost their last three since the playoffs slipped from their grasp.
                        As certain Bostik North visionaries predicted, Norwich struggled against Cheshunt (they actually overturned a first half 3 - 0 deficit before conceding three more goals), while Romford enjoyed better luck against already-on-the-beach Maldon and Tiptree (who they beat 4 - 2); with the now-homeless Essex side escaping the drop.

                        Meanwhile, 2nd to 5th tediously all won, with Potters Bar securing promotion and the other three maintaining position.

                          Berkhamsted FC up from the Spartan South Midlands League today.

                            Sevenoaks Town promoted from the SCEFL (Southern Counties East, or the Kent League in old money) to step 4 Isthmian South as champions. Quite a turnaround for a club more accustomed to being closer to bottom spot in most recent years.

                            Whistable Town are runners-up in the SCEFL, and are claiming one of the 12 additional promotion places available to the 14 step 4 feeder leagues, though I don’t think that’s confirmed yet.

                              Exciting end to the Conference South title race yesterday. Havant & Waterlooville had taken a 3-goal lead over Dartford at the top by winning their remaining game in hand 6-1 during the week, meaning they effectively just had to match the Darts' result yesterday. Dartford won 2-1 at Bognor, but H&W contrived to throw away a 2-0 half-time lead at home against Concorde before eventually coming up with a last-minute winner to nick first place back.

                                Spennymoor won't be going up, missing the play-offs on GD.

                                  Dunstable are down from the southern premier after losing at Frome, while rivals gosport borough won 4-0 at st neots.

                                  For gosport, after getting 11 points from their first 43 games, that's three wins on the trot to finish, two away from home, with a combined goal difference of 13-0. An, er, amazing escape. Truly, an unbelievable sequence of results. <purses lips>

                                    Can this possibly be true?

Since leaving the League they have only changed the Division in reorganisations - e.g. Founder member of the Northern Premier League then staying in that till becoming a founder member of Conference North. I remember seeing in their trophy cabinet a plaque from the NPL recognising their continued membership in the top division from 1968 to 2004.
                                    I just independently stumbled across the same tweet, and figured there must be a mention somewhere in this thread. Here it is for posterity: https://twitter.com/mark_nbfc/status/987793368477585409Trinity were both elected to the League and demoted from it by failing to win re-election, so had never once gone up or down via promotion or relegation on the field in their 145 years.

                                      Montrose up from the bottom tier in Scotland for the first time in over 20 years and not long after escaping relegation via the play-offs a few seasons ago.

                                        Litherland REMYCA promoted from the NW Counties 1st to the Prem (alongside Silsden) after Prestwich Heys lost their game in hand last night.

                                                It's Barnets own fault over the season but that Coventry game stinks to high heaven

                                                  And there's the 0-0 that suits them both, celebrations all around. This will be Coventry's first ever place in a playoffs – which sounds amazing until you consider they were in the top flight for the first 15 years or so that the playoffs existed, and have basically been unremittingly useless since. I'm sure I remember hearing the other year that they hadn't had a finishing position in single digits since something like 1996. This is going to be a whole new adventure for them.
