Will Whitehawk get promoted?

[BN9 BHA]

Decided to go to Basingstoke today, top away day.
Well done to Whitehawk nice to see plenty of fans who made the effort.

Final next week at Boreham Wood, I think we are meeting at Brighton station at 10.30 to catch the 11.08 train. Change at Blackfriars. If anyone is interested in going.

Not sure about the Blackfriars change, anyway it's a Thameslink that departs Brighton at 11.08.

I'll be going

Trains go from St Pancras. I'm hugely tempted. They are my nearest non-league outfit.

Usually there are 4 teams in play offs. That might be the teams finishing 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th.
It COULD be argued that it is not 100% fair that a team finishing say 6th can get promoted through the play offs and the teams above them in the league finishing say 3rd, 4th, 5th don't. That's 'COULD'!
Not having 2 legs for the semis and for the final MIGHT be logistically beneficial e.g. due to tight time schedules.
Also, giving the home advantage to the higher respective teams can off set some of the POSSIBLY perceived unfairness of the play off system.
That is in the minds of those that run these leagues when they make the rules.
It's quite a simple concept. If you are not bright enough to understand it that is fine but don't diss the comments of someone trying to explain the logic behind the rules to you.

As I have said I am totally against the play off in their present format, although I understand the rule makers thinking. Why should teams finishing 5th and 6th earn money from the ties and play offs and the automatics not earn it. If they feel the need for play offs to my way of thinking it should be 3rd bottom againt 3rd top in the lower divsion in 2 leg final to determine who plays in the top division.

Good luck to Whitehawk, I know I now live in Eastbourne but am a whitehawk boy through and through.
I used to mange couple of the whitehawk boys teams and a regular over at the enclosed ground.
I bet George Gunn will be sending down inspiration from above, top bloke, him and his wife Jean who also ran the valley social club in whitehawk were a top couple, in fact it was George's love of Arsenal which inspired the kit of the day.
Come on you Hawks, I will be supporting you from Spain next week and be back for the final of the SSC on 16 May at the Amex.

[Phat Baz 68]

Well done the Hawks

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Am I reading it right, the final isn't at a neutral ground?

The highest place team has home advantage!

The highest place team has home advantage!

What a terrible rule

 

[Neil]

Well Boreham Wood its a team of Acadamy players with a nice ground with wonderful playing surface paid for by Arsenal FC whilst Whitehawk's Enclosed ground is built on a tip with a massive slope and scaffolding stands with restricted parking.
So its the Acadamy team against the Skip firm supervisors.
Hope Whitehawk do go up because they will be a laughingstock

Any reason for the thumbs down [MENTION=6]Lord Bracknell[/MENTION].
Any train travel advice is appreciated.
