Opening the map on my iPad, but I guess it’s the same problem.
Thank you |

I assume you are opening the link on your phone, if you copy that link and open it using the google chrome app you may have better luck. Alternatively a screen shot of the map has been added to the North Premier twitter handle

For some reason, when I open the map all I get is a map of my street. Burnage - we've always been a Lancashire club. At our current home (we moved here in the late 70's), the River Mersey runs along the southern edge of our grounds. This was (I’m told) the former border between Lancashire and Cheshire. We were originally an Old Boys Club, formed by lads who attended Burnage Grammar School in south Manchester. However, when we were formed we were a bit nomadic and without a proper home. We played on council playing fields nearer the middle of Manchester before moving to our first proper home on Burnage Lane, on the border between Manchester and Stockport. |

Haha yes fair enough, I didn’t bother checking. I assumed that because Sale and Stockport are Cheshire, Burnage would be too.
Anyway, as the map shows there’s 8 clubs bunched together within about an hours drive of each other. A big change compared to how the league looked in 2019/20. So more appealing for Cheshire clubs that could be in either North Premier or Midlands Premier.

S,
You might need to brush up on your Geography/History, Burnage are a Lancashire club, and in no way are Hoppers, Blackburn and Rossendale South Lancs Clubs especially as the RFU think South Lancashire is South of the East Lancs Road. Other than that good point.

We are furthest South so I guess we'll stay in Mids. That being said it is always a shame each season that we don't get to play against old rivals like you mention.

If I was Northwhich or sandbach, I'd want to be in North Premier next season.
There will be lots of Cheshire derbys against Macclesfiled, Wirral, Lymm and Burnage. Plus games against clubs from South Lancahire: Preston, Blackburn and Rossendale. Plus only 2 journeys to the north east compared to 4 in 2019/20.
I haven't worked it out but id expect there will be far less travelling in North Premier compared to Midlands Premier. |

It's likely that 3 of the below 4 will need to be in Midland Premier. Sandbach have been there a while and seem settled. Doncaster Phoenix and Sheffield have also had time in Midlands.
I suspect it all depends on who volunteers to move over Doncaster Phoenix Sheffield Sandbach Northwich

The rumours I have heard are that Burnage join Northern Premier and Northwich level transfer into Midlands Premier

Whatever the mathematical computation, it seems a little unfair given that our two games in hand, were at home, and against teams that we had already beaten away. Bonus wins, whilst in no way guaranteed, would have put us top. Hey ho, there were always going to be winners and losers - once more, at least, into the great northern premier league.

I don't think so. There has only been 13 clubs in Midlands Premier during 2019/20 due to one club dropping out. They will be back up to 14 next season due to the fact that there are only two being relegated from Midlands Premier (Peterborough Lions and Kettering). There will be three clubs going up in to Midlands Premier, (Dudley Kingswnfd, Syston and Oundle) making 14 for next season.

Indeed - I had calculated Hinkley as the team to come south last year but didn't know about the 2% rule (until then). Where 2 or more teams fall within the 2% the lowest of these is transferred. You actually need to take the mileage of all teams in N2S from each contender from N2N - this will differ from last year because of promotions and relegations Note, Guernsey are treated as Gatwick Airport for these purposes. I'm not sure if a team promoted or relegated to N2N can be transferred or not - seem to recall they cannot. Edited by Raider999 - 03 Apr 2020 at 19:44 |

I think you have 2 coming down Otley and yourselves and 3 coming up York, Burnage and Northwich by my reckoning
