yep a few things obviously have changed at Aldershot between then and nowAnd to think last season they made the play offs in the National league!
I’m sorry to hear of Aldershot getting relegated as I’ve seen many games there including Chelsea U21s on Fridays...only £1 to go in too.
If Chelmsford fail to make promotion they could end up in the North.
Strange if Woking end up south and Aldershot north.
I think Aldershot will survive, although their stadium is a prehistoric mess. Holes in the roof everywhere.
Feel sorry for Waddock. If they can keep him I think they’ll return next season
Over the years I've spent some time looking at the makeup of the non-league structure, and while in theory this is the best option, it really struggles to work in practice and discriminates against clubs on the border of the two - clubs who are certain which side they fall can already be sorting out players for next season, but clubs like City for instance may have to wait because some use players based an hour or more away from the club who are inevitably going to want to play for a club in that half of the split. You also get the crazy situation where two teams in the same city/locality play teams at the opposite end of the country but not each other.It would be strange, Woking is further north. Not sure how they work it all out, but if you have a north south divide surely you have to just split it that way, 22 most southern in one and the rest in the north?
A few ex league clubs down at that level now, joined by Phoenix teams from league clubs that no longer exist.

Oxford City will almost definitely be placed in the national north along with Gloucester. It is no bad thing though as the northern sides generally have better away followings. You will have Hereford, Chester, York, Boston, Chorley, Darlington, Kidderminster, FC United and Telford who all travel fairly well for that level. Obviously Stockport look to be going up and at a guess I'd say Chorley will go up as well.
I think Chorley play Stockport over Easter weekend. Winner will likely go up - loser has to fight through the playoffs.
