Sweet: Bees relegation could harm Conference’s promotion hopes
The relegation of Barnet into the Conference appears to have damaged the league’s chances of securing a three up, three down system of promotion and relegation into the Football League, writes Mark Wood.
Town managing director Gary Sweet admitted they have lost their biggest ally as a result as he said: “Unfortunately the main supporter of the three up, three down in the Football League was Tony Kleanthous at Barnet who is a good friend of ours.
“We’ve spoken to Tony a number of times about it and he would have been supportive if he had stayed in League Two, but he has come into our league.
