There's nothing I can do about NFU winning the FA Trophy. Doesn't mean I have to like it. I dislike the fact that we lose money most years and Fenty picks up the tab. Though he's said he's not going to do it for much longer which will force us to run to revenue, which I'm not unhappy about, I'm not going to lie, even if it will make us a bit less competitive if we don't go up.

The difference between us and say Forest Green and Fleetwood etc is that we don't just chuck money at it, most of what Fenty has laid out over the years has been to cover 'unexpected losses' which was bound to happen as we tumbled down the leagues and paid off huge debts. If we chucked money at it in the way NFU do, then yes, I would find it hard to continue following Town for as long as that continued. When Portsmouth won the FA Cup after spunking over £100 million that they didn't have I was one of the few people I was aware of that wasn't happy for them. When they fell down to League 2, I felt really sorry for the fans but they were the same fans who lapped up the unsustainable success. Success that came at a huge cost to many local businesses who never saw their debts paid. I ramble.

As I alluded to, I don't expect most, if many, to agree with me. I must just see things a bit more black and white!
