Uncle T Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Eight clubs from our league for one place only. Shows ambition or throwing away money for the ground inspection. I would like to see this all happen in March for only clubs who can win the league, save money and time. Instead of 68 applicants it would be around 30 and get promoted on the ground grading F too, so the clubs have a year to get to the next level.

tringarmy Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 From memory the application fee is very low or non existent but you pay for the FA's grading inspection around March time. In the past I think clubs have been given the option to withdraw their application if it is clear by that stage they are not in contention.

Catdog Rovers Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 biggleswade really ? With all due respect, anyone with the requisite ground-grading should be applying every year. For the relatively small fee, it's a gamble you have to take. You never know how a season might go. That being said, it will be interesting to see if Hoddesdon and London Colney come up against the same brick walls they were banging their heads on last year, come grading season. I don't think any of the others should have much trouble off the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OD's Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Yes Hoddesdon is a strange one. Did anyone get to the bottom of why the groundshare at Ware was not aloud according to the FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen Browne Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 It was the Ryman League that refused the groundshare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
