New Football season to provisionally start in August

Castletown and Pulrose request relegation

Saturday 15 August is the provisional date for the start of the new Football season.

Pulrose and Castletown requested relegation to Division Two which was granted at an Isle of Man Football Association meeting last night.

A play-off for promotion to the top flight will take place with Union Mills playing Onchan and Colby hosting Foxdale on Saturday 1 August.

A week later, the winners of these two games will play Ayre and St. John's, who finished in the top two positions on a points-per-game basis.

IOMFA President Tony Mepham says this is all subject to gaining approval from the English FA:-
