Rugby
Town have been moved into the Evo-Stik
Northern Premier League Division One
South as part of more FA restructuring.
By

Rugby,
along with Bedworth from the Zamaretto
Southern League Division One Central,
have been moved into the equivalent
Northern League Division One South
due to Glapwell and Retford resigning
from the Northern League leaving two
spaces to fill.
It
will be the first time Rugby have
been moved from the Southern League
since joining in 1983.
Valley
are no strangers to divisional relocation.
Between 1999 and 2002 Rugby were swapped
from the Southern League regional
divisions for four consecutive seasons.
Having
spent time in the Southern League
Premier in recent years, Rugby will
now look forward to sampling yet more
teams from the non-league pyramid.
Teams
such as Grantham Town, Ilkeston (reformed),
Stamford, Sutton Coldfield and of
course Bedworth United are no strangers
to Rugby in league games over recent
years.
Valley
have also had FA Trophy and FA Cup
games against the likes of Kidsgrove
Athletic and Hucknall Town.
New
Rugby Town boss Dave Stringer is also
no stranger to the Evo-Stik league
having spent a season with Shepshed
Dynamo in 2009/10 as manager in the
Division One South.
There
could yet be more appeals from other
clubs involved although Rugby will
not be appealing so it remains to
be seen if the line-ups will stay
the same in a month's time when the
constitutions will be confirmed.
The
full line-up is provisionally as follows:
