B*gger me sideways, I'd still be laughing in November if that happened.

Got a budget 2 or 3 times the size of anyone else in that league. Can only laugh!

Which I assume they can't support on their current income level.

What could possibly go wrong.....

The new owners must have bottomless pockets or they have a very good plan . Every one in that league hates them because the sort of cheated . Bought loads of players they could never afford and have admitted they need 5k through the door to break even . They’re almost an ffp gone mad 😂😂 if they don’t go up they’re doomed , if they do go up they’re doomed .

They didn't take into account the free flowing football powerhouse of Tamworth. But they're a massive club.

I think doomed is a bit extreme .

They will be reverting to a break even model after this season so it will be them trying to survive whether they are nln or nl ,although if nln they will  still have  decentish budget for the level you would think - they have not dominated with one 4 or 5 times most teams in that league so not so sure that means much  .

We won't be seeing them again for a long long time , if ever.Unless the worst happens .

Scunny (we’re going to urine the league) fans are now beginning to realise that it’s not that easy to get out of that league even though they have full time players, they are where they are because of mismanagement in the past. UTM


Dead Eye Dobbin stood motionless waiting, waiting, waiting for the ball to arrive. Back came the right foot, Down came the right foot, Bang ! Headlines around the world as the ball flew into the very top right hand corner of the goal.( Jim Dobbin scoring in the 89th minute for Town against Newcastle United away 24/10/1992 )

It took Stockport, a far bigger club than Scunny, a long time and a lot of money to eventually get out of the NLN. If they don't make it out this year I can see them struggling for a while.
