Have withdrawn from next season's League One competition.

Leaves League One with 9 teams, 18 fixtures if they play each other twice.

Surely they'll have to play each other 3 times now to make it work, or have a mid season split. (Which kind of would make sense in a division with a clear divide)

I was wondering whether they might drop out.

One way or another, there's got to be a change to the fixture schedule as 8 homes games in a season would be unsustainable.

Jemmo's idea of a mid-season splits sounds best but the two groups would have unequal numbers which again isn't ideal.

At least Skolars have done the right thing by making the announcement now. It's never nice to lose a club from our league.

Thinking about it, they're going to have to change the play-off structure. You can't have team 6 in a 9 team league qualifying for the play-offs. Having team 6 included in a 10 team league was pushing it a bit.
