Ups and Downs

Hull City confirmed their promotion with a win at Yeovil with the 3rd automatic spot going to the final day. Huddersfield lost 3-1 at home to Mansfield whilst our draw at Torquay meant the Gulls couldnt move into that spot.  Carlisle and York were both confirmed as members of next seasons Conference. The Cumbrians eventually bowing to the drop after years of struggle and great escapes. They lead 1-0 but a late equaliser by Cheltenham saw them down. York were already technically down with only goal difference of gigantic proportions to save them. The Minstermen lost 2-1 at home to Orient to be relegated.
