Wem Town are handed relegation reprieve

Wem finished 11 points adrift, inside the initial three relegation places, but their survival hinged on movements in the pyramid elsewhere.

Due to a promotion for the champions of the tier three Southern Premier and a tier two relegation to the Southern Premier, FA chiefs have confirmed Wem will remain in the fourth tier. It has not been confirmed in which division they will play, but it is likely they will remain in Division One Midlands.

Tom Farmer county champions Wem, formerly The New Saints, recently appointed new manager Ronnie Green.
