    according to the chief exec of york city. he's mates with a friend of mine from work and told him cos he is a luton fan. i understand that southampton have approached every blue square conf side and that York were said to be opposed to it as were some other clubs.

    it may be just tentative enquiries but i've no reason to think why my mate would make it up. he was buzzing as it could mean that luton stay up. not sure if it would impact us or championship relegation as my brain isn't computing anything at the mo with this hangover

    it's because...............

    if a club actually folds then reapplies they have to enter 2 levels below where they were originally-there was a big article in the non-league newspaper this week-seemingly they'd be welcomed with open arms?

    Shouldn't make any difference to us.

    And, surely Chester would stay up ahead of Luton.

    according to my mate most of the clubs were against it (they'd allegedly all been emailing each other trying to get a consensus)

    suppose we'll see what happens

    thought that too but i think he's clutching at straws. he seemed more bothered about it impacting us
