VOLUNTARY relegation seems set to take South Normanton Athletic back down two levels after being provisionally accepted back into the Central Midlands League.
The Shiners announced the decision to resign from the Midland Football League over the weekend despite being well placed for a best finish in club history.
Sat 11th in the Premier Division with games in hand on a cluster of clubs above them, Marc Strzyzewski's men had spent much of the season on the edge of the top six following two campaigns in the lower reaches of step five for the Derbyshire outfit.
Central Midlands League status would see a return to the level South Normanton, reformed in 2009, got promoted from in 2014.
Chairman Phil Bailey said confirmation of step seven status for next season had been received on Tuesday (April 7 2020).
