	Northern Counties East Football League - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Northern Counties East Football League is an English association football league that was founded in 1982 by the merger of the former Yorkshire League and Midland League.
		The NCEL has in recent years included three of the oldest teams in England, with Sheffield (founded 1857) generally regarded as oldest in the world.
		The League's First Division received a great deal of press attention during the early part of the 2004/05 season when Garforth Town signed the legendary Brazilian striker Sócrates on a month-long contract, and signed Lee Sharpe on a permanent basis.

	Non-League North (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The North West Counties Football League (currently known as the Moore and Co Construction Solicitors League because of a sponsorship arrangement) is a football league in the north west of England.
		The league was formed in 1982 by the merger of the Cheshire County League and the Lancashire Combination.
		At the same time, promotion and relegation between the two leagues were introduced, with either the first or second placed club in the North West Counties Football League being entitled to a place in the NPL, subject to their ground meeting that league's requirements.

		From its inception the Northern Premier League was regarded as the equal of the Southern League when it came time to hold the end-of-season elections to the Football League, although the only NPL team to gain election to the Football League was Wigan Athletic in 1978.
		The foundation of the Northern Premier League is seen by many in retrospect to have been a forerunner of the Pyramid system which now unifies the majority of leagues at senior level.
		There are even formal relationships between leagues lower down the ladder, as the Northern League normally accepts the champions of the Northern Alliance and of the Wearside League.

	Non-League Times
		As the Football League became established in the north and midlands, it became clear that some sort of merger with the Southern League was desirable, particularly as the latter's clubs often matched or out-performed their 'League' rivals.
		The League clubs closed ranks, and whereas in the past ten years some four clubs had gained League status, not one club went up for the next seven years.
		Finally in 1991 a reluctant Northern had to agree to feeder status into NP1, although so far behind were the facilities at NL clubs that none have yet made this transition directly.

	Unibond League Refer FA Reorganisation Dispute To Arbitration (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		After months of negotiations the Northern Premier League (UniBond) has reluctantly had to accept that their dispute with the Football Association over the level of restructuring to be implemented in 2006 has finally reached an impasse despite the League’s concerted efforts to resolve the problem within the game.
		The decision of the League’s Committee was that the 1,2,3,5 structure would be implemented for season 2006/7 and they would endeavour to implement a sixth First Division in the North for season 2007/8.
		The dispute centres on an unprecedented “U” turn by the FA League’s Committee at the end of September 2005 when they decided to change the decision notified prior to the start of the current season to all participating Leagues and clubs that they were to implement a 1,2,3,6 structure in 2006.

	Pickering Town CFC: The History of Pickering Town CFC
		The club became founder members of the Northern Counties East League in 1982 and was in the Premier Division from 1992 until 1999 when it was unfortunately relegated to the First Division.
		However with a glut of fixtures, and possibly with the knowledge that promotion to the re-structured Unibond League was not an option due to ground grading, at the season’s end we were not able to capitalise and finished in a creditable 5th position.
		The present Pickering Town team bears little resemblance to the team which was relegated, it is a team based heavily on youth, and with a number of exciting new young players, and of course the experienced players whom the club value tremendously we look forward to another exciting and successful season.

		The club were promoted to the Supreme Division of the Central midlands League in 1991, having finished 5th in the Premier Division, adopting the "Town" name in 1993.
		They struggled in the first season and finished 14th out of 18 clubs, but after a number of seasons in mid and lower table they were runners up in 2000, going one better in 2001 and winning the Championship.
		Ground grading meant they were passed over for promotion to the NCEL that year, but they went one better and won the league in 2002, just to prove they were not downhearted by the rejection (beating Clipstone 12-0, to record their biggest ever win) and this time their application for a step up was accepted.
