Football: National League South Suspension

There were no matches for Dorking Wanderers at the weekend after the announcement on Friday that National League North and South campaigns will be suspended. 

The suspension will be for two weeks due to discontent over funding.  The decision was taken at a National League board meeting on Friday after a review of feedback from clubs. 

National League clubs started the season with £10 million in grants from the government, but are now being offered government loans to continue playing.

The reason for  the postponement will now be investigated in accordance with English Football League regulations.

A new date for the match including Saturday’s FA Cup fourth-round tie against Bournemouth, will be made in due course.
