The Football Conference season of 1987–88 (known as theGM Vauxhall Conference for sponsorship reasons) was the ninth season of theFootball Conference.

Overview

[edit]

Lincoln City, who had been relegated to the Conference a year earlier in the first season of automatic promotion and relegation between the Conference and the Fourth Division of the Football League, won the Conference title to reclaim their place in theFootball League, where they replaced the bottom placed Fourth Division clubNewport County.

The season featured an experimental rule change, whereby no attacker could be offside directly from a free-kick. The change was not deemed a success, as the attacking team invariably packed the six yard box for any free-kick (and had several players stand in front of the opposition goalkeeper). The experiment was swiftly dropped.[2]
