Two late withdrawals from the North East Wales Football League this week has left both of its divisions with even numbers.
Acton pulled out of the Premier Division ahead of their scheduled Friday night opener at Lex XI, while Deeside FC earlier removed themselves from the lower level Championship.
This now leaves 14 teams in the Premier Division and 12 in the Championship.
Late entries for the tier 5 Championship included Brymbo Lodge and FC United of Wrexham.
Formed in 2011, Acton had been part of the former Clwyd East and North East Wales leagues and were runners-up in the latter in 2018-19.
In that same season, they ended Flint Mountain’s hopes of a five-timer by beating them 5-2 in the Goals Premier Cup final, the prolific Niall Challinor, perhaps Acton’s best-known player in their relatively short history, scoring a hat-trick.
