Play Offs?
Play Offs?
Can somebody please explain how the playoffs work this season? There are obviously 4 leagues but only 6 promotion places available? Do the Central and Southern Prem have to play a super play off? If so that would seem totally unfair to those in our and Southern Prem as they’d have to play an extra Game???

Not sure it's been finally decided how it will work, but surely Central Premier play off winners will play off against Northern Premier counterparts and Southern Premier against Isthmian Premier, only sensible option.

Re: Play Offs?
The four play off winners are then paired off for "Super Playoffs". I don't know how it will be decided who plays who, but likely to be the two most northerly against each other and likewise the two most southerly. Yes it's unfair but all clubs were told this would be the case before the season started. Some time in the future the National League North and South will have to agree to four from each division being relegated.

The details are on the OWS - http://www.afcdiamonds.com/promotion-an ... for-201819 - unless they've changed since these were published before the start of the season.

That's great. I can book my hotel room in Weymouth or Scarborough. My favourite resorts.Formic wrote: Sat Feb 23, 2019 9:28 pm The details are on the OWS - http://www.afcdiamonds.com/promotion-an ... for-201819 - unless they've changed since these were published before the start of the season.
