DERBY COUNTY RELEGATED
DERBY COUNTY RELEGATED
Peterborough United were the early leaders, winning their first three games. Parkgate, Highfield Rangers, and Lincoln City all kept in touch, with Chesterfield creeping up the table to head it in December. In the new year it remained tight from middle to top, although Peterborough United gradually fell away. Once again, bad weather meant that the season over-ran, but eventually Lincoln City, who had only just joined this league, finished as clear Champions in style.
Derby County suffered a dreadful start from which they never recovered, with only one point from their first 9 games. A Port Vale equaliser in the 6th minute of injury time, away at Derby County, consigned both clubs to relegation, so the only happy spectators were the ones from Stafford Rangers who finished 3rd from bottom. Ilkeston Town and Telford United both had a nervous season, finishing just above the drop zone.
Due to problems in both the EMRL and WMRL, their Champions were very late in being declared. Loughborough Students were promoted as Champions from the EMRL, and Bridgnorth were promoted as runners-up from the WMRL as Champions Kidderminster again declined promotion. Coventry City were relegated from the FA Women’s Premier division to complete the line-up for next season in 2002/2003.
