We have another few years to worry about the league , main thing is at the moment we can play in the conference South if we go up. At the end of the day almost every comp excepts it now so it's only a matter of time .

Original vote 29/46 obv did not include championship clubs
You would expect most of them to vote no so 34 v 34 is a very good vote for 3G isn't it? +4 abstentions ummmm!!!

No but the championship clubs were aparantly in favour seeing as it was only for Leagues 1 and 2 and not in thier own back yard...

Yes you are right. Apparently 17 champ clubs were on favour. So a number of clubs have changed their mind
as long as Conference allow it then all good!!

Can any body tell me where they got 72 votes from when there is only 48 clubs in league 1 & 2

[butlerisalegend]

Championship clubs voted too.

Seems it isnt a sure thing like we thought

In the meantime for all those clubs now playing on 3G or intending to do so shortly in non-league the main issue is 3G being allowed in Conference.

We will continue to provide assistance through 3G4US to clubs wishing to go down the 3G route and provide information to those seeking a greater understanding of all the positive features of 3G pitches and how they can help clubs build a sustainable business model.

that's a far cry from Oliver's assertion at the supporters night that 3G being allowed was such a done deal that the directors don't even think about it any more

The original conference statement made no mention of a further vote, or of any dependence on the outcome of the FL vote. If we win the league we WILL be playing in conference south next year. Chins up guys. Calaisangleterre is a true Job's comforter so you should take his negativity with a massive dose of salt.
