Over the past few seasons the standards of ND1 have been improving year-on-year. While it has generally been the case that whoever goes down comes straight back up over the past 4-5 seasons this won't be the case forever. The likes of Exeter, Bedford, Plymouth and Nottingham (assumg they can stay afloat) are set for big things in the next few years, possibly as of next season being as neither Newcastle or Bristol are in any sort of position to survive the pitfall of relegation. Combine that with the new restructuring and investment of ND1 and we're looking at serious potential for a competitive 2 tier system. [/QUOTE]
