Teams withdrawing from Divisions 1 and 2

Andrew Slade confirms that Bristol are not entering. In Division 1, Wood Green will only have the one team, with Oxford 1 and Brown Jack staying up as a consequence.

News to me. It looks as though I shouldn't have worried so much about the prospect of Barbican Youth being demoted from division two last year!

Brown Jack were very unlucky to get relegated anyway, so good to see them stay up

i assume if anyone else pulls out, Wessex are saved (and 3Cs 1 if a Div 1 team pulls out)

What am I missing here?

* Div 1: WG2 drop out; Oxon 1 replace
* Div 2: Bristol drop out; Brown Jack replace

Who takes the Oxon 1 place in Div 2? Wessex, no?

Yes, Wessex take the missing Bristol/Oxford place

I was getting confused by Bristol still showing here:

That must mean if anyone else pulls out as well as Bristol, then Bradford A stay in Div 2

Bristol couldn't find a captain. I don't know about Wood Green 2.
