Has anyone heard on if there will be a play-off between Greytown and the East vs West Prem winner?
Obviously we'll know what promotion looks like by the end of September but has anyone heard anything?
I'm expecting that the 4 clubs going up to CL2 will be Greytown (winner of Cap Prem), Whanganui Athletic/Gisborne United (winner of E/W playoff), Wellington Olympic Ressies (based on recent past performance), and Phoenix thirds (the Nix will probably want one side in the Central Leagues).
This also feels as though it makes the most sense (regarding what I think Capital and Central will do), as it keeps the club sides happy that they're getting promoted, while also giving the other National League sides the opportunity to go up to CL2 in later seasons.
If there is a playoff between Cap Prem and East/West Prem then this would complicate this further but theres always the chance they do this as a ceremonial trophy and then decide who goes up later.
Or there's no CL2. Who knows. I'll be relieved when this season is over.
