National League clubs have until Monday to submit their vote. All 24 fifth tier clubs get a vote while only four votes per league have been allotted to the North and South divisions.
The league’s proposal would see the league tables decided on a points per game basis with the leaders based on that format being promoted. Play-offs will go ahead behind closed doors in the National League while only.
It was initially understood that National League North and South play-offs could not lawfully continue as they have not been deemed as ‘elite sport’ by the UK Government as clubs await further clarity.
Finally, the side bottom of the National League on PPG will be relegated – no other sides would go down based on the initial draft.
Here are some of the biggest winners and losers should the proposed resolution be passed...
1. LOSER: York City
One of the biggest victims of the National League's proposals is York City. Steve Watson's side ended the season top of the National League North but would drop to second if the season is decided on a points per game basis. The Ministermen were then further hit by the ruling that prevents play-offs taking place in the North and South divisions. As a result, York have submitted an alternate proposal which allows the top two clubs to be promoted from the sixth tier. Photo: George Wood
2. WINNER: King's Lynn Town
With one win in six-match and sitting second of the National League North when football was suspended, King's Lynn are now set to be promoted as champions on points per game due to them playing two fewer matches than York City. This would seal back to back promotions for the Linnets and see them in the top flight of non-league football for the first time in its history. Photo: Matthew Lewis
3. LOSER: Havant & Waterlooville
National League South runners-up Havant & Waterlooville had won their last four matches before the shutdown of the season in March. They sit three points behind league leaders Wealdstone but have played a game more. Havant are one of several clubs who will be impacted by the decision not to allow sixth tier play-offs to go ahead. Other unfortunate teams include: Weymouth, Bath City, Slough Town, Dartford, Dorking, Brackley, Boston, Altrincham, Chester, Gateshead and Spennymoor. However, Havant still have a glimmer of hope of an immediate return to the National Leauge should York City's proposal pass. Photo: Naomi Baker
