If the bottom three in January are the same as now I wonder which will be best placed to throw money at it. Do we perceive Carlisle United's approximately 600 grand in cash to be the trump card? (Nigel Clibbens has stated this cash value and although there are folk on here who have no great love for him the fact is that he does not tell lies.) Or do we perceive that the gowing (by interest) debt counts in the scheme of things. Sc­unthorpe and Oldham have their financial difficulties.

I think that the three clubs will do everything that they can to improve in January, even if it eventually leads to financial cataclysm, so none of them has a financial advantage over the others. What is your opinion?

Millen versus Curle and Hill with all able to desperately spend in January will result in us not finishing top of this league of three. I think that we are going down.
