  Northern Premier League - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Northern Premier League, known in recent years as the UniBond League under a title sponsorship contract, is one of the regional English football leagues which sits directly below the regional conference.
This was due to the league's belated admission of Barrow for the 1999-2000 season following a bitter dispute between the league, Barrow and the Football Association.
However, Barrow was elected to the league a month after the season commenced when the Football Association threatened severe sanctions against the league, which would have included the expulsion of its clubs from the FA Cup and FA Trophy.

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.
