Supporters Association back major changes to League Two
The Football Supporters Association (FSA) have backed the campaign by the National League to increase the number of relegated teams from League Two.
During their annual AGM, the FSA voted on a resolution to support the National League's '3UP' campaign, which looks to change the number of promotion and relegation places between League Two and the National League.

At present, only two teams go down from League Two, and there is only one automatic promotion spot in the National League, with the second decided via the playoffs between the teams finishing between second and seventh.
In February, all 72 National League clubs grouped together in a campaign to see three clubs earn promotion into the EFL every season.
The gap between the two leagues is notably small, with no club having ever been relegated back to the fifth tier in their first season in League Two since the introduction of automatic relegation.
In a statement when the campaign was launched, the EFL said: 'Recognising the strength of the pyramid, the league has been consistent in its commitment to looking both upwards and down when considering future changes.
'As such, we remain willing to consider changes to the current position on promotion and relegation in the EFL, but these discussions must be part of a broader package of reforms which benefit all levels of the game.'
