Weymouth are 2-0 up at halftime, anyone fancy sort of a local Derby? Weymouth won 3-2 but left it late with a 95th Minute winner and now play Dartford for a place in the National League Meanwhile, Keating came on as a sub for Gateshead but they went down 5-3 to Boston who play Altrincham also for a place in the National League.....

Would love to see Weymouth back at Plainmoor. Thinks it's going to be a long time before we meet York City in the league again. From what I remember Altrincham were a bit of a zombie club always coming back from the death at somebody else's expense.

Last Act of the season for the National League this afternoon with the three play off finals. Weymouth are currently scoreless against Dartford after a one o’clock kick off with Boston playing Altrincham at Three. Notts v Harrogate is tomorrow.

0-0 Full time in the Weymouth match.
3-0 to Weymouth on penalties and many congratulations on their promotion. Possible local derby but big doubt on whether local fans will be able to travel.

Yes congratulations to Weymouth, have always enjoyed playing them. Pity I've already said I will not be attending games this side of a vaccine.

Meanwhile, up North, Altrincham come out 1-0 winners against Boston so congratulations to them as well.
I predict that these teams will have a tough time of things next season as it a hard jump up to the National League anyway and play off costs coupled with lower income streams will be a millstone around their necks.

Nice to see Weymouth back in the NL again and nice to have a shortish trip derby again. We need the local rivalry and the opposing fans though I doubt away support in grounds will be happening for some time. Much the same distance as Yeovil Town who will also be happy with another derby contest. Remember the rivalry in our first visit to the NL the season we went up and they went back to Conference south.

Agree with that Rob. Of the promoted teams Weymouth and Kings Lynn have just achieved back to back promotions, whilst Altrincham have achieved their second promotion in three seasons. It doesn't say a lot to me about the strength of sides in the North and South divisions if recently promoted sides to their divisions can just cut right through them.

Well, Notts County remain in the National League after going down 3-1 to Harrogate. Congratulations to them on getting into the EFL for the first time.

Harrogate win promotion deservedly beating Notts County 3-1 and we now know the make up of teams in the NLP or next season. Finished in second place so well deserved despite us beating them 4-2 at the start of last season!
Still no news on the attacking midfielder or whether we actually did train yesterday though doubtful with the season start date being put back a month.
Would be nice to know what the revised plans are with some sort of outline plan with regard ground segregation season tickets and permitted numbers etc etc. It will all happen in time I guess but Its Important to keep supporters informed and interested. I know for a fact many older supporters, and we have a large number, who feel vulnerable will not be attending until C19 Is either 99% eradicated or a reliable vacine is in place. Whatever the outcome Plainmoor along with every other football ground will be a strange place to attend a football match in the coming months.
