Near neighbours Forest Green Rovers are to stay in the Conference.
The Conference AGM made the decision today. Northwich will drop down to Conference North. Hereford United fans usually travel to the Lawn in their droves whenever the Bulls play against Forest Green.
The following statement is from Forest Green as published on Confguide:
Forest Green Rovers welcome the end of the uncertainty of where the club will be playing in 2005/06.
With our new stadium development well under way, a new Manager and going full time this uncertainanty has not helped at such a crucial period.
We can now proceed towards our long term objectives with renewed confidence, with continued support of sponsors and fans.
On the subject of fans, we extend empathy to the supporters of Northwich Victoria and whatever the immediate outcome, it is important that loyal fans ultimately have a club to support.
