Yeovil champions
Dorking all but down
York back in relegation jeopardy
Taunton look to be going down on current form, keeping Eastbourne up potentially.
A very interesting night in the leagues,congratulations to Yeovil but in reality they should have won it more comfortably than that.

In researching the dates for the play-offs I found this on 'Gloverscast', a Yeovil site... LinkGiven they are imminently going to win the league (2-0 up with minutes to go) I thought it somewhat cheeky and not a little arrogant that, back in June when this was written, their list of key dates for the NL season included the likely date of of their open top bus parade ๐คจ Interesting also that it wasn't at that point confirmed the NLS/NLN finals would be hosted by the highest finishing club, a neutral venue was being discussed. Does anyone know if that issue has been resolved since the summer? As last season, the games will be played at the home of the team finishing higher in the league.

The abandoned Weymouth v Yeovil match has been awarded to Weymouth, with no change to goal tallies. I wonder if the same decision would have been reached if Yeovil had got to the end of the 45th match still needing at least one point for the title?

Please excuse my ignorance but could someone confirm the structure of the playoffs?
Is it:
4th plays 7th, 5th plays 6th. Winners play 2nd & 3rd in two semi-finals, then a final. All games played at the home ground of the team that finished higher in the league?
Thanks!

I must confess to keeping a grimly curious eye on Hinsh's York City since his departure, am I right in thinking that they're not completely out of the brown stuff going into the final fixture on Saturday?

Kidderminster, Dorking Wanderers and Oxford City are down. The other place will be taken by one of Wealdstone, York, Ebbsfleet, Woking or Boreham Wood. The first three-named are on 53 points, Woking have 52 and BW 51. Wealdstone and York have the same GD, Ebbsfleet are two worse off. To add to the excitement, Boreham Wood are home to Ebbsfleet on Saturday, so if BW win, it could be down to GD; if BW don't win, York are safe.

Correct. If Woking get at least a point and Boreham Wood beat Ebbsfleet... then York can go down on goal difference if they lose by more than Ebbsfleet do plus a further two or three goals. Unlikely but not impossible. They'll keep him if they go down anyway, he's won them over.

In the Isthmian Premier, Hornchurch are up as champions and Chatham are in the play-offs. The other play-off contenders are any three from Enfield Town, Wingate & Finchley, Horsham, Billericay or (most unlikely) Hastings United. Concord Rangers have been relegated (again), as have Haringey and Kingstonian; Cheshunt or Margate will join them. (As an aside, Corinthian-Casuals were relegated from the Isthmian League last night).
In the Southern League Premier South, Chesham United up as champions and Gosport, Salisbury and Totton are in the play-offs. The other play-off contender will come from Merthyr, Bracknell, Walton & Hersham, Hungerford or Dorchester.
