So anticipating we'll go up to tier 3 is being actively negative?????

It's all guesswork .


If we've struggled to keep up with the spending power of the likes of Wrexham, Stockport, Chesterfield and Solihull for the past 4 years. then I can't see us competing with the likes of Bolton, Reading, Barnsley and Portsmouth. The further up you go, the more important spending power becomes. Hopefully it won't be in tier 4 where that becomes all too apparent, but I think it has to become an issue in tier 3 with the size of clubs we're now seeing at that level on a regular basis.
