Surely they still have to promote Torquay.

Clough's remit was avoid relegation this season. If the conference is cancelled with no promotions then he's secured his remit. He can see if players are ready to step up or how far away players are from being in a position to step up.

Just imagined it and I have developed the opposite view after sharing your initial giggles.chip63 wrote:gazza1988 wrote:I the conference is null and void then that would mean no relegation.

I wouldn't trust that scenario, let's get safe to be certain.
Imagine us bottom and county top and no relegation or promotion.
Just imagined it and I'm

Perhaps players should wear tights and cod pieces, they'd get the grant then. In the wider scheme of things, 11m is a drop in the ocean.

We can still get promotion. I'd say its more of a reason to go for it a bit this season.
I think you have forgotten already that the mighty Scotland have finally qualified. I bet they pool players from this level as well as from the equivalent SPL?adamstag wrote:Surely it's too early to cancel it currently?
Yes, the numbers don't look good - but why does their season have to end in say April like it normally would? why couldn't it roll on until June/July and start the next season in September like they did this year - hardly going to be dozens of NL players in the Euros
Surely (hopefully!) we're well on the way to defeating bloody covid by the anyway

Depends if there’s any written proof of the grants.
I’m more conferenced as to the mentioning of misuse of the grants. What’s that all about ?

That, I think, was lottery funding which has already been used to keep clubs going as they believed more money was on its way.
I think the point is that if the £11m grant isn't forthcoming then the £10m lottery funding is wasted as the season won't finish anyway, I think that is what is meant by misused, not just that clubs actually misused money. However, if clubs have misused lottery funding then clearly they should be punished.
