Not quite, Dave, if they lose 2-0 they drop below Folkestone.
The point is that if the games had been played at the same time, Leatherhead would have needed to go for a win in case Folkestone had won, now Leatherhead know a draw (or even a one goal defeat) will be good enough.
I KNOW it's a minor point but I bet in EVERY other league, every team will play their final match simultaneously.

Mick, you are right ! It is riduculous that the games are not played at the same time. See the Premier League today: also ridiculous.
But of course, Bert, in the Premier League there are still plenty of matches to be played so, with so many points still undecided, it really doesn't make any difference if you play Saturday lunchtime or Monday evening. The point is that ALL the final matches will kick off simultaneously at 3:00 on Sunday May 11th, unlike what has happened in Ryman South.
