Bluebirds boss Evatt makes pre-vote plea
DO THE RIGHT THING!

IAN EVATT has called on National League clubs to “do the right thing” and reward success not failure at the expected vote for how the 2019-20 season should be concluded.

The National League have now suspended their three visions indefinitely to fall line with the EFL and are continuing to weigh up what happens next.

It’s thought the reaction to Step 3 and below being declared null and void – as well as records expunged – has made league chiefs determined to consult their member clubs individually as a planned board vote earlier in the week was postponed.

Evatt’s Barrow were enjoying a fantastic campaign and dreaming of promotion to the Football League before the coronavirus pandemic halted the season in its tracks. They sit four points clear of Harrogate Town with both sides having played 37 of the 46 scheduled games, although they still have to face each other.

Clubs are due to be asked to have their say this week and Evatt hopes Barrow will be rewarded for what they have done on the pitch. “We’ve all put a lot into 37, 38, 39 games – financially, emotionally Evatt told The NLP. “The stars are aligning for us to be promoted. That might not ever happen again. We may never get another chance at this.
