Another show of authority by the Northern Premier League

They once did this to Ilkeston , then fined us for not fulfilling the fixture. Many of us will remember this.

Will the same happen to Marske?

yeah i can remember that well . Do as i say but we will you for doing so.....

I think that it's a Northern Premier League rule that all clubs are financially sound. If they get an indication that a club is in difficulties they immediately suspend them from playing until they can prove otherwise. 
If I remember correctly Ilkeston were suspended when some organisation complained to the league that they hadn't been paid.
This league is very quick to act if a club transgresses.
Ordinary fans are left with the impression that the NPL has little sympathy for clubs who appear to be struggling financially.

Match on

.

It's over two weeks since Marske's suspension was lifted. When we played against Marske at home on 16th December, we were told by their officials that they had to raise £120,000 in two weeks.
The two weeks are up and they have raised £25,000 so far.

Have they been given more time?
As far as I know the NPL haven't issued any updates
I hope they survive and are allowed to continue playing.
Has anyone heard anything?

This is how today's league table would look with Marske's results expunged:

                                                          (Points.     move-
                                P     Points          Lost).       ment
1    Radcliffe.           20       45               3               -
2    Warrington        22        44               -               -
3.   Worksop           21        38.              3               - 
4.   Marine              22        36               3.              -
5.   Guiseley           21        36               0.      up 4 places
6.   Macclesfield     21        35.              3.          down 1
7    Whitby              20        35               3           down 1
8.   Hyde                 22        35.              3.          down 1
9.   Ashton              21        35.              3+0.      down 1
10  Bamber             22        31              0.           up 3
11  Workington        23        31              0            up 3
12  Lancaster          21        30              -             up 4
13  Morpeth             22        28              3+3.       down 3
14  Matlock              21        28              3+3        down 3
15  FC United          22        28              3               -
16  Ilkeston              22        27              3+3.       down 4
17  Gainsborough    22        23              0.              -
18  Basford              24        19              0             up 1
——————————————
19  Stafford              24        17              -              up 2
20  Atherton             22        15              0             up 2
21  Bradford             21        14              3            down 1


Ilkeston, Morpeth, Matlock and Ashton have played against Marske twice
Warrington, Lancaster and Stafford have not played against Marske.
Presumably only three teams would be relegated

The last thing we need is for them to not finish the season
