this starts a chain, every team above us files a case and we somehow get a reprieve. masterplan.

[Alex Crook ⚽️🎙 @alex_crook]

EXC: Hull are speaking with lawyers to see if they have a case for being promoted straight up to the Premier League in the wake of Southampton's expulsion. Another potential headache for the EFL. More on @talkSPORT with @JacobsBen

@ChipTownFC Disappointing, but more than deserving to stay at that level. All the best, Caine - a great servant to the club.

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

@george_hod11608 Club name at top, football club at bottom, establishing date split in half with random local landmark in centre. Cut and paste. Boring.

Badge designers really got lazy in the last decade or so, huh?

✅️ 2026/27 National League South lineup confirmed

Raring to go for our first season at Step 2 👊

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

also forgive me, this is the last time i shall speak about national league south

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

If you’d have told me a decade ago that we’d be getting ready to play Villa (a) in 2026…

@Kate95665629 @BigPhilHooks @ChipTownFC Appreciate the sentiment, not sure that was our issue though. Harry did play in 27 of 32 games after his injury, including featuring in each of our last 15 games straight, starting 13 of those.

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

As an aside, what a club @HorshamFC have built. Everything there is superb, an incredible set up and great people too.

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

Over and out, NLS 👋

[Martin Searle @calneeagle]

We intend to return. But whatever we do, we will do sustainably, to make sure the club goes on and on. 153 years and counting.
Not for us the melting wax wings of Icarus.
But 'pride and passion', and community, forever.

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

It started against Havant nine years ago, it wraps up at Horsham today.

The final stop on our National League South journey for now.

What a ride. Back for more soon.

🇭🇳

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

@PtsColes @BSF2020 Alongside Ellison, there’s Ola Lawal, Ben Hughes (just made EFL debut) and Joe Andrews (immediately went 1st team).

In our team currently Bradbury, King, Poffley and Vaughan all came through academy. It’s working and been good for our own squad and securing investment.

[Enterprise National League @NL_Enterprise]

Enterprise National League South table is in ✅

Who wins this one? 🏆

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

@FalzonHero Yep, we were only on 12 points going into that so was certainly the catalyst.

Let the merry go round begin, I’m sure Weston and Salisbury are both circling, then there will be us two, and potentially Gloucester and Hereford all in for the same bodies. 🤞 for a few more wins 😅

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

@BSF2020 That’s fair – I was going off it being our highest finish in the modern format, post-reform.

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

So, relegation confirmed bringing an end (in two games time) to nine years in the National League South.

Nine years that have brought a play-off run, a highest-ever league finish, and our longest-ever FA Cup and Trophy runs…

🧵 (1/6)

[Chippenham Town FC @ChipTownFC]

Full-time. Results elsewhere confirm our relegation. We will be back.

#BlueArmy 💙

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

It’s our first relegation in 50 years (almost to the day) – and just our second in 153 years. Let’s make sure it stays that way for a while.

As always: up the fucking Chipp 🇭🇳

[The Sheldon End @TheSheldonEnd]

Now we return to a division which might not have the same ‘big’ names it did last time we were here, but remains just as tricky.

For me, the work for next season starts in these final two games. We don’t want to take 15 years trying to get out of it again.
