Instead, Pools will now compete in the sixth tier next season alongside the likes of Boro Rangers Women and Spennymoor Town Youth Ladies.

In a statement on social media the club posted: “Whilst this is an incredibly disappointing end to six years of being in the fifth tier, the club will regroup and aim for promotion next season.”
