Proper football is nearly back.

How will our Teams fare this season

I think Rafa can take Newcastle upwards with a top half finish.

Sunderland will struggle this year like Villa last year.

I can see Hartlepool having a tough time in Conference.

Darlington will finish in the Play-Offs in a division that Salford will totally Dominate with York, Spennymoor will be the dark horses of Conference North and Blyth will just stay up.

Also this season, I am sure the FA and National League System are making promotion mandatory at Step 5, which means whoever wins the Northern League would be forced to take the next step.

Gonna be interesting in non-League with the addition of a couple of new divisions at Step 3 and 4 which will hopefully start to ease the Southern Bias at those steps
