"With this Cup exit comes renewed attention on the League; it’s hard to know, given League position isn’t the only determinant of promotion, what might be the requirement for Peckham to move up next Summer."
The first requirement will be floodlights. That ground simply won't stage SCEFL football until it gets floodlights, regardless of how nice it looks compared to some grounds already in use at that level.
PTFC will know exactly what the requirements are, as the club was encouraged by the Kent County League to submit a futile application for promotion a couple of years ago in order to avoid the embarrassment (to the league) of not offering any promotion candidate. All the necessary improvements will have been highlighted by the FA when the club was inevitably rejected. PTFC subsequently published a document outlining a programme of planned improvements, which must have been linked somewhere in the depths this thread, but I can't remember whether it included floodlights.
