Won’t be the last I expect.
With the latest COVID news it looks like the National League may not start, but if it does without crowds several clubs are rumoured to be wanting to take a year out as well.

This has interesting implications for the FA cup competitions (Cup and Trophy). Will a step 3 or lower club drawn against a step 1/2 club get an automatic bye into the following round?

I suspect like last season it will all descend into a farce. Genuinely not bothered about cups this year. The Trophy grew into a wonderful distraction last year but this year must be about hoping the the league fixtures can be fulfilled. Not optimistic though.
