We've got a 10 year buffer to emulate you, so everything crossed!

All fair comments, we do need more depth in certain areas and just straight replacements in most of the defence. Tyrer hopefully is sorted, I get the feeling that's a done deal for 1 more year. It's not ideal having your #1 as a loanee, although from a Prem side you can be pretty sure they are...

He looked quite rusty when he started with us to be honest. I actually thought we'd signed a finished dud on a 3 year deal. Once he got going though, scored a couple and found his stride he was fine and proved me very wrong. His ability to find tap ins so consistently is vital for us, and he's...

Obviously I don't really know the individual situations, but you'd think FGR and Sutton should be immediate contenders in the NL. FGR budget dwarfs even York's and could just spend their way out, and the level will have no surprises for Sutton either. Unless both have a massive clear out and...

Player budget was £2.1m this year, confirmed by one of the owners recently. We've got some work to do, so will have to spend on top of that next season to compete, but I can't see it going past £3m, that would be a huge jump. Probably come in somewhere around £2.5m you'd imagine. Suppose it...

We are certainly not that :lol:. Your budget is nearly double ours, although I fucking hope the piggy bank gets dipped into next season, suspect we'll need it.

Said every single person ever.

Looks like that's the top 3 settled. Congratulations to all on here. Even Mansfield, took you long enough. Shame we won't have the derby next season.

Absolutely, I mean Crewe, 20k(!) comfortable playoff spot. It can be done. York eye watering levels of cash thrown about. That fat CB they signed for 6 figures. Dipo the striker, a quart of a mil. OK he's decent, but shit.

We're down the bottom of this list with our £52k spend, which had us 4th in the NL. Really shows the difference in spending between the levels.

Feels like this was a good year to get promoted? Potentially a few quid for each team, if divied up fairly?

I must admit, when I saw Hayden there I instantly thought 'we'll have him!' especially given the obvious area we're going to look to strengthen. Always rated him. If he's constantly crocked though I wouldn't be arsed, we had enough of that a few years ago. It is a big shame when injuries hurt...

Crikey, a lot of money being sent out the door there. Much change from a million in combined transfer fees?

He always has. Not quite big enough, not quite fast enough, can be prone to a bad decision. But he does try, and can actually be a threat from a set piece. Way more at home in a back 5 than a back 4

Pains me to say, but surely they still do it? MK only have 3 games left. It would take an almighty collapse
