Deducted nine points from this seasons tally and suspended from the league. Feel for them. A license for the league has not been granted for next season.

Hope they get it sorted, was a good day out, despite the result.

Have we gone up a place in the final table?

[moondog]

It was certainly was their fans are friendly too, looked after our group really well, booking taxis and getting us into the stadium bar after the match, we've kept in touch with them saying this week that they'll come down for a day out at the proact next season even if they go bust

Hate to see things like this
Will this mean Aldershot stay in the league?

[Exharboroughspireite]

If only those in charge of clubs cared as much as those who support them do

I understand the need to deter clubs from being poorly run and not abiding by league rules but always seems cruel to fine and punish teams already in the mire... gutted for their fans

Yes, its pointless and makes recovery harder. This League has a reputation for unsympathetic and swingeing punishment; Barrow had a shark of an owner in the late 90's, and in January 1999 the club were the subject of a compulsory winding up order. Most of the players had fled but somehow they avoided the bottom 2. The league relegated them anyway.

Crueller still in a way was one heard of when I was in Horden in County Durham during the Strike. The village and the club - Horden CW - were on the bones of its +rse, there was nowt coming in apart from tiny amounts of gate money and they had their phone cut off. So of course the Northern League fined them for not having a phone.

It certainly was. Very friendly people. Was going to be keeping an eye out for that fixture for next year.

Gateshead can appeal the decision but I read that the make up of the NL will be declared on June 8th, so very little time for the club, in whatever form it exists, to do that.

Very sad.

My first game was Pompey v Charlton Athletic in Div 1 with an aunt and uncle.

My second was Gateshead v Hartlepools United in Div 3N at Redeugh Park with my grandfather.

In those days, the North East had Pools, Gateshead and Darlington as League clubs.

On similar lines looks like Coventry may end up playing at St. Andrews next season if they can’t sort anything with Wasps over using the Ricoh.

All those nippers in Small Heath who offer to "look after" your jam jar for you whilst you're in the football, could be on double bubble next season. 😉

Gateshead staying full time professional in NL north.

Good, hope they bounce back soon.
Newcastle supporting Gateshead folk, hang your head in shame.

[HoneyTrippa]

Will miss the Gateshead "Away Day" next season. Nice friendly people, good day out, better halves spending day in the Metro Centre whilst we were in the footie. Rather go there than Aldershot. Great Shame.
