Not sure how true it is but I’ve just read from a couple of different places that Hashtag Utd are taking voluntary relegation at the end of this season.

It doesn’t matter where they finish this season in the league they will be pulling out of it once finished.

Oh yes please! f*ck off no name club!

Did all their keyboard warrior, non attending, geeks press ‘Delete’ at the same time I wonder??

Heard the rumours as well but what happens if they are allowed to do that and then they win the league?
Would they "decline" promotion?

Speculation of a merger with Redbridge??

I cant say I fully understand or care about Hashtags “relegation” but I think the relegation refers to their online profile

I'm glad they are being voluntarily relegated if only because I hate having to tell family and friends that we're playing against a keyboard symbol when it wasn't that long ago it was Wrexham, Luton or Cambridge Utd. We get away with games against the paper mills by calling them "PM", but Hashtag don't even have the decency to stick the name of a town or river in front of their name! It's a step too far for me as it just reminds me how far we've fallen. No disrespect to the players in their team, they're as tough to beat as anyone else in this league, but it's embarrassing when your friends and relatives ask who you're playing and come back at you with comments like "If you beat CapsLock in the cup do you get to play Exclamation Mark?" That doesn't mean Hashtag aren't capable of beating us, in fact they could trash our whole season by doing so on Saturday, but the fact that this is even a possibility just makes it all the more depressing.

I recall, not so long ago, that the FA stipulated that a club had to be named about the city, town or village they came from. A club in a league I was a committee member of, Brook House, had to change their name to Hayes Town (or similar.) I think they may have reverted to Brook House now. They were already an established club to be fair but Hashtag? Really? Get lost!!

Where is Port Vale?
Where is Forest Green?

Is that Cyrillic? I think I almost understood some of it.

Oh no, it was the hashtag.

Got to feel sorry for those who have supported ## over the years, especially those who were born and bred in ##.

To see their local club request relegation must be ####.

Have watched a few episodes on YT, and always enjoyed the coverage, although always wondered how they managed to survive with an online following, no home ground/area.

As I said before, what happens if they go down and then win the league......
