on the same day, the results made it mathematically impossible for the Alsatians
to catch Bastia in the standings. Two weeks later, following a 2–1 win over Créteil
and a 1–1 draw between second-place Amiens
and Cannes
, Bastia were declared champions of the Championnat National. On 13 May, Amiens

on the same day, made it mathematically impossible for the club to remain in Ligue 2. On 14 May, on the final day of the Ligue 2 season, Strasbourg and Guingamp were both relegated to the Championnat National. Guingamp, who played in the UEFA Europa League due to the club's Coupe de France
triumph the previous season, won its final league match, but, due to other results, finished in 18th position. Strasbourg, who were one of the favorites to earn promotion to the first division, lost on the final day and the club's relegation was confirmed following other results.

earned promotion to National, despite drawing 2–2 with relegation-bound Marck
. The club's promotion was guaranteed following Alfortville
's 2–1 loss to Amnéville

Colmar's place in the league came up for discussion after Alfortville, the second-place finisher in the group, appealed to the French Football Federation
to award the club a 3–0 victory over the reserves of Lens
after it was determined that Lens played with a suspended player. The ruling was determined on 26 June with the Comité National Olympique et Sportif Français (CNOSF) giving an unfavorable ruling to Alfortville. Following the ruling, Alfortville announced its intent to appeal to a Tribunal administratif, however, on 16 July, the French Football Federation stepped in an ruled in favor of Alfortville giving the club a place in the Championnat National. Colmar will remain in the league alongside Alfortville, thus giving National a league of 21 clubs. On 29 May, the final day of the season, the final CFA club achieved promotion to National. Gap
defeated the reserves of Lyon
3–0 to claim the final berth in the third division.
Teams relegated to Championnat National
Teams promoted to Championnat National
would be relegated to the Championnat de France amateur, while Amiens
, Guingamp, and Strasbourg were having its accounts subjected to further deliberation in order to determine whether each club could retain its professional status. Both Bastia and Gueugnon had the option to appeal the decision. On 25 June 2010, the Corsican Assembly
and the General Council of Haute-Corse
approved grants of €800,000 and €150,000 to be given to Bastia in order for the club to meet the DNCG's financial requirements, which would allow the club to remain in the Championnat National. However, on 6 July, the DNCG remained firm on its stance relegating the club to the fourth division after questioning the legitimacy of the grants and the sale of the club's training center. Bastia president, Julien Lolli, remained confident that the club would play in the Championnat National and issued an appeal to the CNOSF, the National Sporting Committee of France, the same day. On 2 July, the DNCG announced that Gueugnon would remain in National after the club successfully appealed to the organization. On 16 July, the CNOSF ruled against the DNCG and announced that Bastia should play in the Championnat National. The club's place in the league was confirmed upon the release of the league table.
On 2 July, local media in Alsace
reported that Strasbourg were on the verge of being relegated to the Championnat de France amateur by the DNCG due to financial issues. The club responded by announcing its willingness to appeal if the news reported was confirmed. With the club's accounts still being reviewed, Strasbourg's financial issues were slightly alleviated after the sale of striker
Magaye Gueye
to English club Everton
for €1.4 million. Strasbourg later transferred captain Guillaume Lacour
and Algerian international
Yacine Bezzaz
to Évian and Troyes
, respectively, for nominal fees. On 16 July, the report was confirmed when the DNCG officially relegated Strasbourg to the CFA. Strasbourg appealed the decision the following week. On 22 July, Strasbourg's appeal was successful with the DNCG ruling in favor of a return to National. The return of Strasbourg to National means that twenty-one clubs competed in the 2010–11 edition of the league.
