With Hebburn Town (Newcastle) and Stockton Town (Teesside) winning promotion from NPL East we will have 2 relatively close new clubs in the NPL Premier for 2024/25. Leek Town and Prescot Cables are promoted from NPL West so fairly lengthy trips to Staffordshire and Merseyside there. Not sure if the two promoted sides from the NPL Midland will be in our division or if they go into the Southern Premier Central. I am sure Reds will be hoping trips to Spalding United in Lincolnshire and Harborough Town in Leicestershire are not on our new route map! No idea either how it will work with the 4 relegated teams from National League North. Blyth Spartans will definitely be allocated to NPL Premier but surely sense will prevail and we won't be landed with Gloucester City, Bishop's Stortford and Banbury United at Step 3 North Level?? Then again with the F.A that is probably hoping too much as anything outside their M25 bubble can be deemed as North!!

Both Spalding & Harborough have more chance of being in our league next season than the 3 relegated conference north sides just on geographical location. Any of the npl premier central midlands sides can be moved sideways, the furthest north being the most likely. Telford lost in the pkay off final today so it could be them. Other possibilites are Mickleover, Stamford, Coalville, Stourbridge. Either way someone wont be happy being moved

I think all of the Leicestershire based clubs should be automatically placed in the NPL Premier

My guess on the new teams in the league will be Blyth, Hebburn, Stockton,Leek, Prescott and possibly Mickleover?

This is probably correct and looking at the map, Mickleover will move sideways. Step 3 map

It's like being in the Conference North again.
