Quick Facts Season ...

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, this season's competition was formally abandoned on 26 March 2020, with all results from the season being expunged, and no promotion or relegation taking place to, from, or within the competition.^[2] On 30 March 2020, sixty-six non-league clubs sent an open letter to the Football Association requesting that they reconsider their decision.^[3] A legal appeal against the decision, funded by South Shields of the Northern Premier League, was dismissed later in June.^[4]
