If Boreham Wood go up then they’ll join Sutton as successful under spenders which would indicate that good recruitment and management is equally important.

Ps I can’t be ars.ed right now to investigate further back but I’m sure I’ll get shot down in flames for not knowing anything about football or being_thick


Barrow and Harrogate? Not sure what their finances were but I doubt they were at the level of the latest big spenders in div 5.

I thought 'levelling up' was were it was at nowadays.

A few years ago I heard a story of a top club wanting a young player who was considered to be outstanding.  They eventually got him (allegedly) by offering to pay off his parents mortgage in full.

There are always clever people who can find ways to legally circumvent the rules.

I think they both had a good amount of financial backing and were certainly one of the biggest spenders, but probably not to the same degree as Wrexham/Chesterfield/Stockport and so forth.
