Th National League will probably be communicating with the EFL now to see how many/if any of their members are going to be able to move up. Barrow and Harrogate fans must be sweating.

The EFL will probably wait and see how many clubs make it through this before deciding on making any structural changes to the Football pyramid.

If anything, I think the leagues would stay in the same format but with perhaps less clubs if a certain amount fold (instead of replacing them National League sides).

The current proposal is just 2 up, 2 down in each league. No relegation from the premier league. We'd obviously gladly take that.

RE: Regionalisation - It's certainly not a hill I'm willing to die on but I have been on the record several times over and maintain that I really don't think there's much of a difference and fans would get used to it (in the same way as we get used to L2). I don't even think ticket sales wouldn't be hit *that* badly if at all.

But these opinions don't mean that I want it to be re-introduced <---- Emphasis on this.

I fully understand the downsides. Extra costs for policing and the National League North/South is a ball ache geographically. FGR or Cheltenham could play in the North for a year if it's drawn the same way as the National League for example and then return to the South at the whim of the EFL to accomodate new teams to the division.

That would be farcical and defeating any point of brining it back.

Has the idea of regionalisation actually been discussed amongst those who matter? I assume not

No. But, discussion wise, it's not exactly out of place within a thread about what happens next.

I've heard national journalists on a few podcasts mention it as a possible solution for the future. Not surprising that most were in favour.

How about east & west regionalisation?

Use the existing M5 & M6 motorways and the west coast rail route for the main transport arteries for one, and the M1 & east coast rail route for the other.

Just shut football down until it’s safe to start again with fans. How many clubs will be left by then I have no idea.

We could be in the Championship!

Not sure that would achieve much.  You'd still have Plymouth vs Carlisle and Sunderland vs Gillingham.
