Wrexham are the favourites<\/strong> for the 2022\/23 title. Much was expected of the team owned by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney last term, but they were not able to justify the expectations. They are the PSG of non-league football, though, so bookmakers are clearly taking no chances with them.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

Chesterfield <\/strong>and Notts County, <\/strong>two of the bigger clubs in the National League, are the second and third favourites. Chesterfield were cruising the division last season until some off-field turmoil came their way. Notts County can\u2019t quite get the job done at this level.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

Solihull Moors<\/strong> suffered the ultimate heartache when losing out to Grimsby Town in the promotion playoff final last season, and have lost Kyle Hudlin<\/strong>, one of their more important players.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

Scunthorpe United <\/strong>and Oldham Athletic<\/strong> were relegated out of the Football League and will be looking to bounce back at the first time of asking. A new takeover will perk up the Latics, while \u2018The Iron\u2019 were relegated early enough to turn their focus towards building for their bounce-back season.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

Southend United<\/strong> are slowly turning things around under the experienced guidance of Stan Collymore <\/strong>and John Still,<\/strong> with much more expected of the Shrimpers this season.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

Halifax<\/strong> lost in the playoffs last season, but have since lost their manager and a host of players to Barrow, which we imagine will dent their hopes of repeating the heroics of last term.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n \n \n

Dagenham and Redbridge <\/strong>and Borehamwood<\/strong> have been at this level for a lot longer than they would have wanted to be. The Daggers always seem to be on the fringes of the playoffs, while Borehamwood showed just what they can do with their run to the fifth round of the FA Cup. They will look to translate that into a positive league campaign.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n In Summary<\/strong>\n <\/h4>\n \n\n\n

Wrexham<\/strong> have already made the eye-catching signing of Elliot Lee<\/strong> in the close season, so there is no evidence that they are going to stand still. They only missed out on the title on the final day, getting dumped out of the playoffs in the semi-final by Grimsby in a wacky tie which ended 5-4 after extra time.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n - \n

They look worthy favourites and we imagine that, just like in the 2021-22 season, whoever finishes above the Welsh outfit will win this league.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

Those who don\u2019t like 6\/4 shots over the course of a season will look further down the betting for a bit of value. Chesterfield <\/strong>will be popular under Paul Cook,<\/strong> who holds a fine record with the Spireites – that said, the best outsiders could be Solihull Moors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n - \n

Moors were 20 minutes away from winning the playoffs last season, and although the loss of Hudlin isn\u2019t ideal, they have currently kept hold of Joe Sbarra and Andrew Dallas. Neil Ardley is doing a fine job with Solihull and has enough contacts in the game to get good quality loan players in. At a double figure price, they could be the best value alternative to Wrexham<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n The National League 2021\/2022 Season Overview\n <\/h3>\n \n\n
