Nail on head.
Clubs set an ‘expectation level’ by the level of their spend.
Agents know what all the players are on. They talk to each other.
They know that they can get 5 grand a week at the bigger clubs and maybe 1 grand or so at @ASFCofficial because we don’t generate... https://twitter.com/northernsoul4/status/1359748120998010880

That’s a fact of life.
But all the massive extra spend and wastefulness does is give the bigger club first choice.
Wage does not 100% determine quality of player.
The disparity in wages of 1000 to 5000 does not mean one player is 5 times as good as the other.

And that’s why on the field, the cash difference in budget isn’t that obvious.
Many of our players are more than good enough to play at the big clubs.
They are also great lads grafting their way up the pyramid.

...back of the queue when it comes to picking our squad.
And this gives me a really warm feeling.
Because I want these players to want to work hard for us in order to get a move to 5000 a week.
I want our club to give non league lads a chance
I want our club to be a pathway..

And this is what makes me proud of everyone involved.

I won’t let it go bust because I know it’s loss would devastate the town and many people’s lives, young and old.

The regulations...
...have to take this into account.
They don’t now.
Clubs are expendable....
Clubs have to be able to survive all the above.
That’s the challenge.
