Promotion party on Sunday special!

6 May 2018 By David Watters

Play-off-winning managers Jody Banim, Neil Reynolds and Stuart Storer broke off from their celebrations to record a special promotion finals day edition of the EVO-STIK NPL Show!

After going up the hard way in thrilling climaxes to their campaigns, the trio of managers at Ashton United, Bamber Bridge and Bedworth joined host Ben Hughes to record the hour long podcast for release late on Saturday night.

The penultimate podcast of the Northern Premier League's historic 50th anniversary season before a final special to round off the campaign also hears from three guests who kept a close eye on the fortunes of all three clubs over the last 10 months - Adam Parkes from Black Country Radio, Craig Salmon from the Lancashire Evening Post and the Mid Cheshire Guardian's Andrew Simpson.

As well as the play-off special and Friday's last weekly show of the season before Saturday's showdowns, fans, players and officials can still enjoy April’s monthly EVO-STIK NPL Show and EVO-STIK NPL Division One Show after both came out last weekend.
