It's still will be the return of the Mack 4eva Joined: 1 February 2011 Posts: 53,640 User: 12,915	The 2017/18 season of the National League will begin on Friday 5th August. • Replacing the two promoted and four relegated teams from last season are Hartlepool United, Leyton Orient, AFC Fylde, FC Halifax Town, Maidenhead United, Ebbsfleet United. Any early predictions? Fixtures will be released next Wednesday.

Whitehawk FC had picked up just four points (from four draws) in 23 games in what we used to call Conference South. Today they went to nearby Eastbourne and won 4-1 So, congratulations to Whitehawk for being unbeaten in the whole of 2018 so far.

Salford City still for the moment top of the league in National League North.

It looks fairly likely that Macclesfield will make it, the second spot could be anyone thanks to the weird play-off system but Sutton do seem a tad better than the others atm, would certainly be interesting what would happen with the artificial pitch.

Andy Halls, Lathaniel Rowe-Turner & Lucas Dawson are some of the worst players I've ever seen. Even yesterday when we drew, we looked liked we should be about 2 divisions below Aldershot. As long as its not Wrexham nor Tranmere, I don't really mind who go up. I don't think either of them will though; especially with Keates leaving for Walsall.

They are now into double figures for the season Whitehawk won at promotion-chasing St Albans today to get off the bottom of the table They are still pretty certain to go down, but at least they've been competitive in the second half of the season.

Yeh think your right - Sky Sports have some documentary but not sure could be about the united players?
