Much was made of the fact that, despite amassing more than 100 points each, only one of Wrexham or Notts County could win automatic promotion to the Football League.

In National League South, Ebbsfleet had no need to look over their shoulder as they hit the 100-point mark with one game remaining.

The Kent side secured the title with four games to spare and sit 18 points clear of their nearest rivals, Dartford. Ebbsfleet’s march to promotion was masterminded by Dennis Kutrieb, a highly regarded young German who took over at the Stonebridge Road in June 2020, three months after the National League season was halted by the pandemic.
