WESTFIELDS Football Club have missed out on promotion to the Southern League.

Sean Edwards’ men had applied for promotion after finishing runners-up in the Midland Alliance for the second successive season.

But Westfields chief executive Andy Morris had an e-mail from the FA this morning.

“We did not get promotion,” said Morris.

“All the champions have gone up who qualify with ground grading.

“We are gutted as a club for Sean and the players but let’s go and win it next year and then there’s no problem.”
