Excited Canary 19 Posted August 6, 2009 Oooh thats harsh, but didn''t Luton have 30?! What is going on...they might as well start in the League below and work upwards...cause they will get nowhere this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Humphrey 13 Posted August 6, 2009 Given that Chester ended up getting relegated after a 17-point headstart last season I don''t hold out much hope for them this time round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Camuldonum 0 Posted August 6, 2009 It could be worse. If they had been MEMBERS of the Conference League and gone into administration they would probably have been relegated three divisions like Boston United. Blue Square administrators take no prisoners whatsoever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
