It's always been the way. I remember Mike Dunstan saying about four or five clubs in our league paying something like three times what we were yet only two were ever going to go up.

Both fearing for their futures.
F.C Hollywood lost owners £3 Million last financial year I wonder how long till they've had enough.
Outside the Premiership footballs in big trouble, the further down the pyramid you go, chasing a dream few can achieve.

I can’t see Wrexham’s owners giving up anytime soon.
Looks like Scunthorpe are basically down after losing to Torquay today.

How much are Wrexham spending if they're losing that much? They must take £100k over the turnstiles ar every home game!


RE: NLN Watch - Severnside - 01-04-2023

If they recruit from the EFL which they do, players must be on wages close to EFL division 1.....
Not hard to see why they have a trading deficit, not many clubs trade at break even at any level.

Turnstiles probably not even their main income. Look at their sponsors and they sell a lot of merchandise as well.

Macclesfield causing a bit of an uproar after announcing an in ticket prices from £12 to £17 a game for next season with a season ticket going from £180 to £299 and that’s just Northern Premier League.

Robbie Savages explanation is spot on. Good for him for saying so. That as they say folks is reality.

their front 3 of Palmer, Mullin and Waters cost a combined fee of £1.4m. Mullin is rumoured to be on £6k a week thats before you count Tozer, Lee and Foster

There’s ourselves 1 League below off loading Matty McClure to apparently keep us within budget . ( Imo for what it’s worth something that had to be done) 1 League below but monetarily poles apart.

Precisely, they are a model of a successfully run club.
