The management team can't really complain about the budget because they knew what it was from the start. My point is that all the blame can't be put at the manager's door. We have to realise that we are no longer a big club on the pitch in this league anymore.
Let's be fair for a second, the management have not complained about the budget.
As for us not being a big club in this league, that's simply bollocks. We're tiny in the Conference but in this league we have all the ingredients to be a big club barring a sugar daddy.
700 home fans, steady 100 away fans, ageing but decent ground, hard working pool of volunteers, internet radio, quality website, fans around the country and world, 37 junior teams, successful youth team sending players through.
I've just realised you said on the pitch but typing the above made me feel a bit better.
