I fancy they are going to be the first team promoted from the Conference / National League to be relegated the following season.

Has happened many times in all other divisions; do you think it's purely down to the fact only 2 teams get promoted/relegated between FL and NL?
It's very rare a club goes down to the NL and straight back up (Maybe Barnet are the only ones I can think of?) so once they do get back up, they're stable enough to kick on.

Lincoln did in the first season of relegation to the conference, came straight back up.. as did Darlington a couple of years later..
Didn't Shrewsbury come straight back up in 2004? I might be wrong but I don't think them or Carlisle were down there for more than one or two years.
