I'm sure I heard or read though that we had a competitive budget?

There's the Catch 22 mate.... who decides what is competitive and what is not competitive.

We are just fed this line and there is no way of proving it or otherwise

I was told by a good mate  who was friends with one of our players why he was leaving at that time . The rumour went round on here and it was spot on he was offered £50 a week more to sign a new deal left and got higher wages in the national league. That Club at that time had an average gate 1500 lower than ours

If this is the same player who scored our goal on the last day of our first season back in the league (16-17) then I've pretty much heard the same kind of thing... just who are we being competitive with I'd like to know

Our budget should surely see us challenging for the Play Offs/top half  based on gates alone . However in real terms and I could be miles off we seem happy to compete with Morecambe,Macc etc for the 3rd from bottom slot.
