Strange they never have the spare play off place to the next best team in Aldershot?

Reported that on the new stadium thread.

Another council f**king a club over by not giving them the security they need.

By the way have you completed a supportive comment on the planning application for our community stadium ? We need as many comments as possible to show the council.

They probably just made it up on the back of a fag packet.
Rather than give a bye to the semis to Solihull who were meant to play Gateshead, they have now given this to Aldershot.

Altrincham who have been given the bye isn’t it? As they were the highest placed team who had to play in the qualifiers?

You’re right. I just saw Al and read it as Aldershot

Yup:

The National League initially said Solihull would get a bye to the semi-finals but then adjusted the draw based on final league positions.

Altrincham, who finished fourth, will now get a bye to the semi-finals, where they will travel to Bromley, while Solihull will host FC Halifax Town on Wednesday for the right to visit Barnet in the last four.
