    I hope that the Hawks make it to the final against say Weymouth, and win it. It would be good to see them get promoted to a higher level <ok>

    If they win the playoffs it will mean their fifth change of divisions in a row.

    2019-20 - Promoted from National League South to National League?
    2018-19 - Relegated from National League to National League South
    2017-18 - Promoted from National League South to National League
    2016-17 - Promoted from Isthmian League Premier Division to National League South
    2015-16 - Relegated from National League South to Isthmian League Premier Division.

    Before that they had been ever present in National League South (Conference South) since its foundation in 2004!

    The Hawks will discover their semi-final opponents today, as Slough Town take on Dartford at Arbour Park.

    Ironically, the home match against Dartford was due to be played on 21st March and would therefore have been the next game when the season came to a sudden end.
    The match at the Princess Park Stadium ended in a 1-1 draw on 10th August

    The Hampshire play-off curse is alive and well.

    Shame Hawks lost, but I hope that Weymouth manage to beat Dartford in the final and get promoted.

    Weymouth 0-0 Dartford
    Weymouth won 3-0 on pens and are promoted to the National League
