Chester FC: FA uphold appeal as Chester prepare for life in UniBond North

Chester FC will play in the UniBond League North after the FA upheld their appeal against their league placement.
The Football Association had recommended the Blues begin their new life in the Vodkat North West Counties League, step five of the National league pyramid and four divisions below where they last appeared, in the Blue Square Premier League.
And it could have been worse for Chester, as at the Vodkat League’s AGM on Saturday they faced the prospect of going into their second tier, leaving them five divisions adrift.
But after a delegation from Chester FC, which is run by City Fans United, presented their appeal to the FA at Wembley Stadium on Monday, the FA have agreed that the club should enter the league pyramid at step four, the UniBond League North.
