Really want Histon to survive the Southern League Premier

Shocked that Cheltenham have got pole position over Forest Green in National League.

Interesting article in FourFourTwo mag (Pep on cover) about how alot of teams in Northern League have no interest in gaining promotion as its currently convenient for players to play games against local opposition and can be home in time for tea!

Cheltenham have got a good squad and a good manager although they have adjusted to the league surprisingly well. It's normally very hard for league clubs to bounce straight back but looks like Cheltenham will follow Bristol Rovers in doing it first time of asking. Quite annoying that in any other league coming second would ensure automatic promotion but not in the Conference. The way things are going both Cheltenham and FGR will have more points than are normally needed to win the league and I expect they'll be well clear of whoever comes third.
