FOOTBALL clubs in the non-league pyramid are still waiting to here if the 2020/21 season will resume or not.
Clubs below the second tier of the non-league pyramid were asked to fill in a questionnaire with their views on the current season.
These include clubs in the Hellenic League including Westfields, Hereford Pegasus, Hereford Lads Club and Wellington
The FA's Alliance and Leagues Committees have said they will now await the Government's 'roadmap' on when Covid-19 restrictions will be reduced before deciding how the season will conclude.
"We wish to provide the following update to clubs in relation to the potential continuation or curtailment of the 2020/21 season at steps three to six of the National League System (NLS).
"The Alliance Committee (Steps 3 & 4) and Leagues Committee (Steps 5 & 6) met February 8 & 9, respectively, to discuss the data that was collated following the recent surveys circulated to clubs at this level of the game.
"During discussions, the committees acknowledged the likelihood that the Prime Minister will set out a ‘roadmap’ to the nation on February 22, as to how Government intend to begin to reduce the current Covid-19 restrictions.
"Given that any such update from the Government on February 22, may provide the committees with additional, relevant information to help determine the preferred route forward, they have agreed to reconvene after this date."
The National League clubs at step one and two of the non-league pyramid are currently voting to whether their season is curtailed.
If the National League North, including Hereford, is classed as null and void this would stop any relegation and possible promotion from step three of the pyramid.
"In addition, the Alliance Committee are also conscious of the ongoing process the National League (steps 1 & 2) are undertaking and the potential impact this could have on any actions the committee may choose to take," the statement from the the Alliance and Leagues Committees added.
"We will provide an update in due course."
