Giving Altrincham a bye was the good decision they should have made in the first place. First instance in quite some time where a side is deemed not "fit" to earn promotion to the Football League....
Boreham Wood are stepping in saying they’re more than happy to take Gateshead place . Dover have said they can ground share at their pond and Halifax have said if the Gateshead players are willing to pick potatoes they can play at their place next season.
So the team that finished 5th (Solihull) have gone through to the next round and the team that finished 4th (Altrincham) is now at a disadvantage of having to play their match. Absolute joke. Surely Altrincham should go through and Solihull play Halifax.
I just bought my ticket this morning,... and WOW what a f.ck up. Here is a summary by Alty's unofficial website. Alty Files
Not gonna lie I'm happy we are not facing you. We might still lose but we've a better chance against Solihull than you
