2024 Northern League One

[Aegon]

Time for the 2024 thread as we are already in pre-season for some clubs.

[Southy Melon]

Hearing news that Wallsend have shut up shop

[straightred88]

Hearing news that Wallsend have shut up shop

Heard the same thing, but also heard their zone team is gone as well? Who knows

[Avocadomexican]

Hearing news that Wallsend have shut up shop

Heard that too. Unsure about their ZL side

[Reds Forever]

Confirmed on Herald website. Wallsend not fielding teams in seniors or youth football for 2024.

[Taffy]

Be interesting to see what happens with the league with promotion and relegation. There was to be none next year to make it a ten team comp and relegation starts in 2025

[Alton]

The thistles to take their spot

[GO AWAY]

Very sad news for a once great proud club

[The Postman]

Either keep it at 8 or send up the Suns and Dudley and it?ll be 10 team comp all the way through.

Speaking of, any other clubs pulling out or new clubs arriving on the scene? Did all clubs accepting Promotion/Relegation?

Lofty posted a month ago that Suns don't want to move up:

News to me mate. Consider it squashed. ZPL 2024 and beyond is where we want to be.

Lofty posted a month ago that Suns don't want to move up:

Yeah I can't see them moving teams up this year. Will just go with 8 play each other 3 times and then end of 2024 top team moves up as planned.

Lofty posted a month ago that Suns don't want to move up:

Genuine Question:
Following Pro/Rel being implemented at the end of 2024 for the 2025 season, do Suns have the option not to go up? (assuming they win the League - if not Suns then whichever club wins)

Wallsend provided an under 18 side as Northern Inland could not. I wonder if NNSWF will require any promoted side to fulfil that role as NI won't field an 18s again in 24.

Don't you only need Youth if intending to be promoted to NPL?

[Hunter403]

True, but my point is that their withdrawal also diminishes the PYL

[Taffy]

That's correct

Wallsend didn't provide the 18s because NIAS could not. NIAS not providing an U18s allowed Wallsend to join with them and provide the U18s. Had NIAS been able to field an 18s side, Wallsend would not have been allowed to field their 18s.

yeah, thanks for agreeing

[Taffy]

yeah, thanks for agreeing

I didn't I pointed out why you were incorrect and why they won't be a need for a promoted team to have to have an 18s.

[riverboy]

Why did wallsend fold in northern league 1?
