I think you are assuming that promotion from this competition is based on performance, which it is not. It is primarily based on eligibility criteria around grounds. I agree that Cookers deserve promotion and I have no doubt that they will get it (along with Wallsend). It will be interesting to see where all of the players that are no longer able to play for the club will end up.
