National League games tomorrow are kicking off 3.03pm to promote their '3 up' campaign for promotion.

Personally, I think they should incorporate the National League top divsion into the EFL - most of them are ex-league and full time anyway and many have decent crowds.

Also, instead of 3-Up, have 4 up and 4 down right across the EFL. Seems daft we only have 3 promotion spots to fight for in a 24 team division.

Hmm it would effectively turn the National League into Division 5/League 3. What would be the effect on all three cup competitions? And where do you stop? The ex League teams in the NL are there because they deserve to be. I would need more persuasive arguments than "they used to be in the League" and "they get decent crowds" to convince me it is the right thing to do.

Because its a national league rather than regionalised. That would be my reason.

Slightly playing devil's advocate..but it has been a national league since it formed as the Alliance Premier in 1979...

Agreed Fuzzy - either way, 3 up and down is long overdue.
