Unfortunately they get a decent whack from Arsenal. They'll be a force for a few years, it'd be a new kind of ridiculous if they were to get promoted into the league.

They don't care about gate receipts. Their money largely comes from their connection with Arsenal.

So you think the mighty Arsenal are pumping in a million a year?

The problem is they exist and will probably always exist. We just have to compete with other clubs whatever their structure.

They (Arsenal) GAVE them a 1.2 million pound 5g pitch and pay them to have the ladies and at least some U23 games. They can rent the pitch out every other night of the week and have a tiny (newish) ground with minimal expenses. Don't be surprised if you find out that their budget is greater than ours.

A club without a fanbase is like having a guitar without strings.

I agree and there are plenty of rubbish "bands" around who can neither sing nor play their instruments yet somehow earn more money than truly talented musicians do. Paradox of modern life. Goes for writers, artists, actors etc. We live in the Age of Mediocrity. God, even our politicians......

Two more tonight for Boreham Wood top scorer Bruno Andrade, ex-QPR and sadly always played in and around London so maybe not a possibility but he sounds like just the player we need. Although admittedly I know nothing about him, except he's Portuguese.
