I believe so, but the rules are there so that clubs are supposed to not go bust. It then begs the question how the mad Italian got away with his investment levels. If the famous 5 want to inject another £2-3 million then they will find a way.

Re: With Wrexham out..
Though most clubs below the PL - including us - are subsidised by benefactor(s), Salford (Lim and the Class of 92 guys) and Fylde (a one-man vanity project, albeit for over 10 years now) are extreme examples. If the plug were pulled, they’d be sunk.
Eastleigh were like this til the sugar daddy decamped. Ironic they’ve had their best season once he’s gone (though I think he left some dosh to see them thru a season or 2 without imploding).
On the pitch, it’s hard to call it. Fylde probably play the most attractive football of the remaining quartet.

Re: With Wrexham out..
Interestingly some Salford fan on their fans forum called Flylde a vanity project. Also criticised Flylde attendances, says a fan whose club spending mega bucks on big stars average less than 2500 at home and a low of just 1200 despite being neat the top and 3 successful seasons. Delusional.

We are a good example that you dont have to spend big to do well on the pitch.dOh Nut wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2019 11:12 am Interestingly some Salford fan on their fans forum called Flylde a vanity project.

Re: With Wrexham out..
Solihull are tinpot from top to bottom. Eastleigh is the one ground in the whole of the Conference I didn’t manage to visit, so I would probably prefer them, albeit it reduces our chances of getting McCallum back. Tyler’s would be my second choice, and I think them losing at Wembley would be the ideal preparation for us, for when we face them the following week.

We probably have the biggest squad in the league. Not sure how much you think people like Jobi, Bonne and Lee were on but our wage bill wont be far off of Salford.

Re: With Wrexham out..
Lets be honest, its all set up for Salford to do it at Wembley. The class of 92 there, BT's mouth watering, and then them going up again next year

Well done. You have correctly identified all four teams as potential winners.
Sherlock would be proud.

Has the misfortune of talking to a couple of them at the away game at the start of the season.
They acted like they had genuinely never heard of Orient before and spoke about Salford as if they were world famous.
Very odd.
