3 points separate the top 6 in National League South with just 1 game to go. Should be quite an afternoon for them.

If Truro get promotion they will have some long hauls to play fixtures in the National League, including Gateshead!
This is what football is all about
I’d imagine Gateshead aren’t rubbing their hands in glee either.
I went to watch Truro play a pre-season friendly against Plymouth whilst on holiday a few years ago.
Best chant was " You dirty northern bastads"
Forest Green use that chant whenever they play Cheltenham!
If FGR stay don't get promoted and Truro do then I'll look forward to their local derby.

I know merthyr are promoted but assuming they go into national league north like Hereford?
They'll probably just get a return charter flight from Newquay to Newcastle.
Otherwise it's an 8 hour coach trip.
Looks like Truro are going to win it, they’re 4-1 up at half time - Torquay are winning 2-0.
Final table - really pleased for Truro.

By 2 goals in the end. 3 points separated the top 6.
In the NLN Hereford lost & dropped from 5th to 10th after being in a play-off position for most of 2025

Shame about Hereford, last time I looked they seemed to be cents for a Play Off place. Kidderminster would have been Champions if they’d won, but they were beaten at lowly Southport.
Remember Luke Jephcott who looked like a Wales regular in the making when he was scoring goals for Plymouth as a teenager? He was at Newport last time I looked, but I just watched highlights of Truro’s win on Saturday and was surprised to see him scoring their first goal.
Turns out it’s his second loan spell at Truro.

When I went to see FGR a few weeks ago a certain clutch of youthful supporters were rolling out the usual chant that "The referee's a w*nker" but an announcement was made over the tannoy sytem that the barracking was sexist and the Police would get involved if it persisted.
The referee was female.
The play-off final for the Southern League Premier (the one that Merthyr won) is between AFC Totten, inclusive of Charlie Austin & Gloucester City, who are hoping to bounce straight back. Merthyr could do with a Gloucester win to help place them in NLSouth. A Totten (Southampton) win would almost certainly push Merthyr in NLNorth
Gloucester were 2-0 down early on in their Play Off game at Hampton and Richmond, but got it back to 2-2 and then won the shoot out in which Harry Pinchard, once a very promising midfielder with us scored - another former City under 21 player, Tyrone Duffus was in the Gloucester team.
Bonkers National League South Play Off game between Boreham Wood and Dorking last night - Dorking were 3-1 up with ten minutes to go and lost 4-3.
it was bonkers indeed, one of the Boreham wood players had scored 2 own goals to give Dorking the 3-1 lead and that same player scored the winner in the 96th minute for Boreham wood.
All 4 of the Southern League playoff games were come from behind wins.
I see that Chasetown lost their playoff on pelanties.
