RCA reprieved from relegation

Submitted by Tim Robinson on Saturday, 1 June 2013

A 24-17 club vote at this morning's Northern League AGM reprieved Sunderland RCA from relegation to Division 2 following our finishing third bottom this season. Our reprieve is at the cost of Jarrow Roofing's disappointment. Roofing finished fourth in Division 2, but were hoping for promotion because second-placed Ryhope CW were relegated for not meeting ground criteria by the due date.

Ryhope CW have appealed against the decision to relegate them back to the Wearside League and our reprieve may be overturned if their appeal is successful.
