as far as the club folding is concerned I don't think that would ever happen again to a club of any size above miniscule (North West Counties and below). If you owe money there are fiddles available to ensure you don't pay it. As we don't owe any money we don't have that problem.

The only thing we would suffer would be the ignominy of relegation and possibly going into debt to pay the outstanding (not as this minute but worst case scenario) wages of players we have had to release as we can't afford to pay them.

As we stand at this moment we are financially poor in terms of cash flow but we do not have large debts to service as some clubs do. Imagine if we had borrowed to build the roof, if we had borrowed to sign Evil and Paul Carden - we'd be in a bad state then as we'd have debts and no way of paying them.

We all bang on about wanting this and that but this and that cost money to procure. If we sell a player on for damn good money or if we have a good cup run and draw a big team then maybe we'd have the money to have a little gamble on getting extra backroom staff in to try to increase revenue but until then we have to make do with mending what we have.

Lets all be proud of the fact that this ramshackle team is still halfway up the division with teams below us that spend far more on wages, have bigger crowds, sell more merchandise, have more backroom staff etc.

We may not be an example of speculating to accumulate, and we may not be an example of innovative business development. But what we are is a shining example to every little club below us of what can be acheived with the right men at the right time and the right mindset. Every season we survice at this level is another kick in the teeth for so called bigger clubs below us such as Exeter, Oxford, Rushden, Stevenage, Cambridge. If the inevitable ever happens then at least we had our years in the League, until then we need to buckle up tight and start thinking of ways we can try to improve the situations we face
