The smart money is on Hyde finishing second bottom and Witton finishing 3rd bottom and escaping relegation by 0.000000000001 pointsAshton beat top of the table South Shields on Tuesday, and Nantwich beat Witton.
Hyde drop in to the PPG relegation spot now
They have to play Buxton twice in the next 5 games!Even with games in hand, Witton look in serious trouble. Not helped by injuries and a shocking goal difference, while that narrow defeat to Nantwich will be a big psychological blow. High flying Buxton (2nd) and Whitby Town (6th) next up for them too.
Positive for us of course that there's the real possibility of a derby game that should bring a decent crowd to Townfield next season.
Yes Tony. Although the fans won`t see it this way, by dropping down a league they will be a top 4 side in our division, winning more games which of course any football fan wants to see and may actually increase crowds with lower running costs. Many sides have benefited longer term by dropping down a league for a year or two. Probably best they stay where they are!Relegation to the Mickey Mouse Sunday League with 1874 might actually be a financial benefit to Witton and reduce their expenses and their financial dependence on Jim's Team.
Certainly not as many trips to the East and North-East, so that will help travel expenditure. In terms of playing budget though, I think Witton will be struggling to compete with a number of clubs, so an immediate return to the Premier Division could prove problematic. Possibly better results on a regular basis might help hold on to gate numbers however.Relegation to the Mickey Mouse Sunday League with 1874 might actually be a financial benefit to Witton and reduce their expenses and their financial dependence on Jim's Team.
