FOOTBALL: Relegated Fairford Town avoid the drop
9:54pm Saturday 17th May 2008
FAIRFORD TOWN have been reprieved from relegation to Hellenic Division One.
At last week's FA Leagues committee meetings, AFC Wallingford withdrew from the Hellenic, while Lydney Town have been forced down because their facilities do not meet the criteria for Premier Division clubs. Champions North Leigh have been promoted to the Southern League South/West division where, among others, they will meet Cirencester Town.
The three available spaces created in the Hellenic Premier have been taken by Chalfont Wasps (Hellenic One East winners), Marlow United (runners-up Hellenic One East) and Old Woodstock Town (runners-up Hellenic One West).
So Fairford, Harrow Hill and Abingdon, who filled three of the four relegation slots in the Hellenic Premier, have all been saved from the drop.
